Welcome to AutoModpack,
What is this? Basically, this is Minecraft modification with goal to make easier updates to your modpack. Your friends / players won't need to manually update all mods / modpack anymore. Thanks to this mod all this boring stuff is done automatically.
Showcase: https://youtu.be/lPPzaNPn8g8
- Your players no longer have to update mods manually.
- Modpack hosting.
- Easy manage as admin (your player's mods, configs, shaderpacks, resourcepacks, etc.)
- Sync modpack mods with server mods.
- Dynamically change content of your modpack without triggering your friends/players.
First of all download the latest version of the mod from here.
Put it into the mods folder of your minecraft/server installation.
Launch the game your game/server.
NOTE: If game crashed at first launch don't worry. It crashed because you need to have installed fabric api / quilted fabric api, which is installed automatically before that crash.
- Client
On join the server who has this mod, modpack will be automatically downloaded and installed. You will only need to restart the game to properly load the mods.
- Server
Open port (default: 30037) on your server! TCP/UDP need to host modpack.
NOTE: if you can't open any port on your server, or you just care about server performance. Use Google Drive, upload there modpack.zip whose automatically generated on your minecraft server at ./AutoModpack/modpack.zip. And the link type into the config "external_modpack_host".
(Unfortunately when using Google Drive or other download service/server sync_mods will not work. (Working on it, if you know how to implement Google Drive upload feature, please let me know.) )
Add mods/configs whatever you want in your modpack to the ./AutoModpack/modpack/ directory.
Restart server and you are good to go! Enjoy!
I want to delete some mods from my modpack
- Go to
./AutoModpack/modpack/directory on your server. - Create file
delmods.txt. - Inside this file put full names of mods you want to delete. (one full name per line!)
./config/automodpack.properties

- Which versions are supported?
1.19.x and 1.18.x on fabric/quilt modloader.
- What is [CLIENT] MODS folder?
Basically (It's for server admins and have it purpose only if sync_mods is enabled) you can add there those mods you want to add to the modpack, but you don't want to load them on server
- Do I must use official minecraft launcher?
No, you can use any launcher you want except for Feather Client its unsupported. (but launcher must be compatible with fabric/quilt modloader)
- Do I must install this mod on both sides?
Yes, you need to install this mod on both sides.
- Does it deleting existing mods which are not in modpack but the client has them?
No, it doesn't. It will only delete mods which are written out in delmods.txt in your modpack.
- Does it automatically update my mods?
No, it doesn't, but if you want this cool feature take a look at AutoPlug. If you are using AutoPlug, I recommend you set sync_mods to true in AutoModpack config.
- I get errors every time I try to download modpack!
Check if in the server log after start where is a notification about the modpack host launch, there is a correct ip (the ip you are trying to connect to the server)
If not change in the config host_external_ip to your correct server ip (without port)
Follow the same process if you have a problem with the local host ip, but to host_external_ip_for_local_players
