Put your own CurseForge modpack on the server (export ZIP or profile link)

Built your own modpack in the CurseForge app? You can put it on your server in a few clicks – we download the mods ourselves and set everything up.

Option 1: profile link (easiest)

1. In the CurseForge app, click Share on the profile and copy the link (it looks like curseforge.com/minecraft/share/…).
2. On your server page → Installer → Modpacks.
3. Paste the link into the search field and click Install.

Option 2: upload the export ZIP

1. In the CurseForge app, click Export on the profile. This creates a ZIP file.
2. On your server page → Installer → Modpacks → Upload your own modpack (ZIP).
3. Choose the ZIP file (at most 150 MB) and click Upload and install.

What we do

• We read the mod list and download the mods directly from CurseForge.
• We set the Minecraft version, loader (Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt) and Java to match.
• On the first start we check that everything runs and move mods that only work in the game (e.g. graphics or map mods) into the mods-client-only folder.
• Keep the Backup box ticked – then you can always go back to the old state.

If mods are missing

Some authors don't allow downloads through other sites. The installer shows these mods with a link. If the server runs anyway, that is often not a problem. If you need them, download them and put them into the mods folder in the File manager, then restart.

Good to know

• Your friends need the same profile – the easiest way is to send them the same profile link to import in the CurseForge app.
• A modpack from Modrinth you install directly via the search in the installer – see Install a modpack.
