First, give me a shout on Discord with your username to whitelist you.

Follow the below steps to get your Minecraft client set up to connect to the server.

Download and launch Minecraft Forge for 1.20.1 recommended build (you will need Java installed).

Install the client in your Minecraft directory. These should be the default options, just press OK.

Open the Minecraft launcher and launch via Forge 1.20.1.

Navigate to %appdata%\.minecraft\mods

Extract all of the mods from this .zip into your mods folder.

Restart your Minecraft launcher.

Connect to minecraft.solinra.com and have fun!

You may get a warning before joining that there is a mod imbalance, ignore this – this is because I am running a custom version of Forge on the server side so it sees there is a difference in Forge versions – you will be able to connect and play entirely without issue.

If you want a good shader pack, I’d recommend Complementary. Put this .zip (don’t unzip) into the %appdata%\.minecraft\shaderpacks folder.

You may want to check your keybinds as some (mainly JourneyMap and Traveler’s Backpack) mods conflict by default.

This time round, we’ve got a decent amount of mods installed. The main ones you’ll need to know are in this first section. You can find links to all the mod pages too if you need to check any documentation.
