Thank you so much, I was trying to find out why I couldn't update my modpack but it was just a simple button
Me to
This has helped me so much if i need help for anything else I'll come looking for this channel!
Thanks a lot. I wanted to list a modpack for my commiunity to just download and not have to download every single mod. Thanks for help. :)
You're Welcome! Hope everything works out!
I did everything but uploading the file, watched this same video yesterday on how to upload and did it all right but I forgot this file upload step, thank you for the help, now I can start making Minecraft mods.
You're Welcome! If you run into any problems feel free to drop a comment on any of my videos.
Thanks man. I made on for my friends when we can all get java working. I owe you one.
Cheers
You're Welcome! I hope you have fun with your friends!
@BayGames my modpack is called AllCraft The Magic and super heroes. by Flixus
btw i coudent reply so i made another coment
@@felixmagnus4679 I think I found your modpack using the modpack name and author name. I am on the website because I’m not home. Your modpack has a Spider-Man profile picture with Allcraft in all red above it. Your modpack does show experimental, so that could be why it doesn’t show on the curseforge application. First off is this your modpack? Secondly, do you have any experimental mods, saves or something like that in your modpack? If you can I would turn off experimental and I’m assuming it will show on the application.
@@BayGames the modpack you found was mine. but how do you turn off the exprimental?
@@felixmagnus4679 I'm not exactly sure where, but some people have told me its in the files section on curseforge or its when they upload it. support.curseforge.com/en/support/solutions/articles/9000197242-file-project-types-and-addit Here is an article about the settings. Under the projects type you should see it.
thank you this helpt me out thanks sooo much
i love your videos
thank you it really helped me upload my modpack
You're Welcome!
So, I uploaded my files and they got rejected with the message "These files (all the mods) should, instead, be referenced in the manifest.json file generated by the Twitch Desktop App during a profile export". I've no idea what a "manifest.json file" is, and searching about it just made me even more confused.
It sounds like you might have had a bad export. I would try exporting the profile one more time and upload the new version. The Manifest file pretty much gives you a list of your mods. Any mods should be listed. If you can see the mods themselves in your exported folder, it did not proper
If that doesn't work, feel free to message me on here or on discord.
I uploaded a mod pack once, and after it was approved, I opened it on my computer and it crashed again and again. They wont tell you if something is wrong with your mods.
I'm sorry to hear that. Is this the same for the profile you exported? If so, you will have to slowly remove mods until it stops crashing. It's the only solution I have for it. If it doesn't crash on your profile one, I would recommend exporting it again and updating your modpack to see if that works. Happy New Years!
thanks for the video!!
You're Welcome! If you run into any problems in the future, feel free to comment here!

This video was very helpfull and i am so happy you made it because this helped me g’et startet. Kep up The goog work 😄
Thank you for the kind words!
Hey thank you do you by any chance have a vid on how to make that or a custom modpack into a server pack and upload it as an additional file on that project? I am searching on how to create a server Pack out of my modpack but cant find any good guides, would appreciate that
I can look into it. I'll keep you updated if I find anything or if I do anything.
I uploaded the modpack and as soon as I pushed the upload file button the whole page disappeared and a 404 page appeared instead
Just repeat the process. The website has that problem sometimes.
Been trying to upload my Modpack. but after I upload it. it'll take me to a page, saying. (Gateway error). Not sure how to fix this.
That's not good. Have you tried using a different browser? It might be a website error or browser error.

This tutorial is very helpful! But I have one quick question...
My modpack got approved and is on CurseForge, but the option to add more content is gone. I can't add or remove mods from my pack anymore, if anyone could help out with that it would be much appreciated!
Are you viewing the modpack project that you exported off of curseforge? If you downloaded your modpack from curseforge you will not have the ability to add or delete mods. You have to use the original modpack project that you exported from. Hopefully that answers your question. If it doesn't work, you can try joining the curseforge discord and asking that in the support section. discord.gg/curseforge
For me, i cant install it usiing the button but i have to download it and manually import it. do you perhaps know why?
Are you downloading it from the curseforge website or from the application? I'm confused on what you are installing?
I have watched your video many times . And my modpack dosent upload to the launcher. Can you please help me😢
@@felixmagnus4679 is your modpack being approved by curseforge? If it is approved are you selecting release or Aplha/beta? If it isn’t approved do you receive some type of error code?
@@felixmagnus4679 login on the curseforge website and look for a notification icon or if you view your modpack page under your dashboard. Both used to list the error if you have one.
No matter what I did my default didn't showed up,what can I do?
Default what? If I said it during the video, you can also post that. Thanks!
Thanks man
You're Welcome!
Image was smaller than minimum 400 height or minimum 400 width.
Did you run into problems with image size?
I uploaded my mod pack to cf and it was approved but it says it’s experimental and I can’t find anywhere to make it not be experimental so that it will load on the cf app?
When you make a curseforge project at the bottom of the general page you will have the option to tick "This Project is Experimental." I just tested it.
i have a problem: if i want to upload the data, it will load for like 30 seconds and say "Gateway timed out". please help
The files may have uploaded check the file tab. Some mentioned size being the problem which causes that error, but it may or may not stop it from being uploaded. If it isn't in your file section I would check to make sure your internet is stable. That's all I know for potential solutions. If those don't work join the curseforge discord discord.gg/curseforge and ask in the support section or go to the support page on the curseforge website.
Thanks!
You're Welcome!
tysm, really helped :-D.
You're welcome!
If I see this: Request Too LargeYour request is too large, likely due to your upload. Please upload a smaller file, at most less than 5 Mb, what can I do?
Um, how big is your modpack? Pretty much the first things that come to mind are removing maps, texture packs, and the larger mods until you reach the size requirement. That's if the file error is for your modpack. If it's the picture, I would lower the resolution in a photo editor program.
Ok just wondering how do we add datapacks to the CurseForge projects we create??
Check out this video ua-cam.com/video/YppzjXqgT6Q/v-deo.html&ab_channel=TheBreakdown
Hopefully that answers your question. If not, feel free to comment here.
I got denied and it was because I was missing some json file, I'm confused and Don’t know what to do
Try exporting the file again and re-uploading. Seems like a lot of people experience this problem and thats the only solution that I know of.
Thank You Soo Much
You're Welcome!
@BayGames wow I did not expect you to reply its been 1year and u just earned a sub
@@zynplayz_ Thanks! I try to reply to everyone especially for the people that run into problems.
What does "Under Review" in the status mean?
Curse Forge needs to review the modpack to make sure that it meets all the requirements. After a few days you should get approved or denied.
best tutorial yet
Thank you for the kind words!
thanks bro luv u
You're Welcome! Glad it worked for you.
my file got rejected because of unknown manifest.json file inside the zip folder. Do I just delete it?
The manifest file should be included when uploading your modpack. You should first try exporting the modpack again. Upload that and if you receive the same error, you could try deleting it.
Great video! I have a question though, if I changed some mod config files, will those changes be saved when I upload the modpack?
You will have to export the configs when you export your modpack from curse forge. I think the option is called config.
@@BayGames thank you!
@@benedictdavidson2314You're Welcome!
my image is not good it said " Image was smaller than minimum 400 height or minimum 400 width." help me pls
I would open up gimp or photoshop with a 400x400 pixel page. Drag and drop the photo and export it. It should work after that.
@@BayGames thanks
I tried to post one but it says this for the file " application/x-zip-compressed is not a supported file type." any help?

@@BayGames Yeha
I was blocked from logging in, I have to contact the devs it says
Oh no, that's not good. I would contact the support as soon as you can. CurseForge should reply within a few days.
thanks
You're Welcome!
it says no matter which image i pick its not big enough
Is it 400x400? Maybe you can try resizing it in a photo editing software.
hello, I tried to install a modpack myself but it didn't take the image because it asks for a 1:1 image and I don't know how to do it
1:1 is a ratio that basically is telling you that the picture needs to have the same dimensions. At the time of the video, curse forge only accepted 400x400px photos. So, If you have a photo editing program like gimp, photoshop, or something else you can plug in the 400x400 dimensions when you make a new template. After that, drag and drop or import your photo, resize it, and export it.
OMG I CAN FINALLY MAKE AN OPTIMIZATION MOD😎😎😎😎😎
been trying to upload for 5 days. my desc is not idiot proof apparently as they keep saying its not good enough for people who dont know what mc or mods are. why are they so picky?
It’s happens. You could use AI to write you a pretty quick description. Hopefully you can get it figured out! If not feel free to drop a comment and I’ll help you!
When Submitted it says timed out?
I would try submitting the file again. If you get the same error, it could be a problem with curse forge. I would wait a day and try it again. If you run into the problem again, feel free to comment, and I'll try to figure out another answer.
my modpack hasnt been accepted yet but tysm!!!!!!!
You're Welcome!
When installing a resource pack in CourseForge, it asks for a compatible profile, so how do I do that?
Hmm. That's a new one I haven't heard of before. Some people online say to disable windows defender and re-enable it once you finish. I would recommend joining the curseforge discord discord.gg/curseforge and asking in the support section if the windows defender doesn't work. You will have members with much more experience in solving this problem.
@@BayGames ok sir
How long does it take for it to be approved I uploaded it 2 days ago.(my modpack )
It can take a few days. The longest I had to wait on time was 6 days. I think it depends on the time of the year. If you don't get a response soon. I would join the curse forge discord and go to the support section.
Thank you
You're Welcome!
Mine never goes past "upload file" it's the last step but doesn't take me anywhere?
@@hades_wrath9041 Do you click on upload file and nothing happens? If that’s the case you might want to try a different browser. Maybe a popup blocker is causing that issue.
@BayGames I've figured it out! Once I press upload file that's all I have to do, now I'm just waiting for it to be uploaded by curseforge:)
@@hades_wrath9041 Awesome! Let me know how it turns out!
Can i Use it for backup Reasons? so that i backup my Modpack
You can if you want. I don't think curseforge has any problems with that.
once you've uploaded a modpack how do you add additional mods to it?
You have to change the original file that you exported. Add or remove mods to that and export and upload the new file again. But this time you would upload it to the modpack project but it would be under files.
damn thats complicated, im bad with this stuff@@BayGames
I made a video on it a while back ua-cam.com/video/-cDlRxjmh_8/v-deo.htmlsi=tKmFB1Gg01m6RHdS Some stuff might be outdated but it should give you an idea of how to do it.
I found a way better tutorial explaining all this, perhaps mention to people that if you click the little arrow next to mods when you are going to export it you can see all the mods and if it has a big trangle warning sign you should check that mod off, cuz if you dont it wont get accepted.
Oh, yes! 3rd party mods are not allowed to be uploaded. I am assuming that's what you are talking about. I might have mentioned that in my older video. I don't remember if I mention the warning sign, but I thought I mentioned 3rd party mods or only use curse forge mods, but I could be mistaken. Thank you for your input. I might make an in detail guide to this. I might go through and answer as many questions as I can as I walk through the process again.
@@BayGames thank you, because I have to say after I followed the other tutorial my modpack finally got approved. It was hidden deep within youtube so if someone as big as you could lead the hints forward that would be lovely :)
@@AnheruShiroi I'll definitely consider doing it. I might go through all the videos about curse forge and write down all the questions and do my best to make a video answering all of them.
tryna import a modpack and it keeps saying invalid file im losing my mind man help
Sorry, I need more clarification. Are you trying to import a mod pack that you made on a different launcher, or by yourself to curse forge? Or are you trying to upload a mod pack to the curse forge website for approval?
how do you get the mod on cuse forge ?
You can download it from the website or you can click on the modpack profile and click on get more content.
It keeps saying failed to create file
Whenyou upload it or export it from curseforge?
@@BayGames upload
@@ERROREDITZ6789 I would try exporting it again on curse forge and making a new project to upload the file.
I'm creating a modpack for me and my friends to use and I'm following all the steps, but whenever it in the mod folder the pack does not appear when I load Minecraft, yet it is not crashing, which might mean the file is bad. Do you know why this is happening?
@@embrr812 so your modpack is not appearing on curseforge after or before you upload it? When it crashes is it giving you some form of error? If not you’ll have to look for the crash logs in your modpack folder.
@@BayGames The thing is that it isn’t crashing, which is why I think it’s something I’m doing wrong with the file. I expect that means that anyone else who tries to download it won’t be able to get it to work either
So you have it uploaded to curseforge, but the folder is not attaching any mods? If that’s the case I would try exporting the file again on curseforge. When you export the modpack verify that mods is selected.
thanks help a lot
You're Welcome! Glad everything worked out!
@@BayGames hi again im trying to plubish a modpack but the moderator keep telling that my sumary is not valid i try a lot of defferent sentence but nothing work so if you can help me a little bit it would be nice, sorry for disturbing you
@@shokiave7436 It's all good! What I recommend doing is copying someone's else's description and use that as a guide. Of course, change up the wording to match your modpack, but try to keep the same length.
@@BayGames Ok thanks you
Nice😊
Why does it always ask me to change the summary, I've already changed the summary 5 times.
@@Best-ob8yo that’s odd. I would just make sure the length and quality of it seems good. What error code is it?
@@BayGames it say change required
@@Best-ob8yo I’m assuming it’s the length of the summary. I usually recommend a lengthy summary and somewhat descriptive. Curseforge can be really picky. Don’t copy and paste anyone else’s, but you could use AI to help write it for you.
@@BayGames ok bababoi
So do saves count as maps when exporting the mod pack?
Yes it does! Sorry about the late response. I was on vacation and I just got home.
@@BayGames Thanks
I've tried uploading one that involved an API, and it said to reference it in the file autogenerated by curseforge when exporting it but I have no clue what that means. I looks around the help section and it isn't referenced anywhere. I don't know how to do it, where to find the file or even what it's called.
Hmm. It sounds like you need to reference your source. Kind of similar to when you write a paper for school and use a resource for evidence. I'm not sure where you include that on curse forge. If I had to take a guess, it would probably be on your curse forge modpack page somewhere. Maybe where you upload the file, you might have an option. I would join the curse forge discord and ask in the support section if you can't find it. discord.gg/curseforge
@@BayGames Thank you. I'll consider it.
Ok so it talks about manifest.json. I went into it and I can not for my life figure out what I'm supposed to do. I am not good with anything related to code so I have absolutely no clue. I know I have to "reference" the api and such but I don't know how to do that either.
@@mr.slappii513 99.9% of the time, if you try exporting the profile again, that might fix the manifest file problem. If you don't see the file, that means it was a bad export. Nothing usually wrong with how you exported. If that doesn't work, let me know!
The old is better than newest
Are you talking about my older video? Or older Curseforge?
Is there a way to change an experimental modpack into non-experimental after already uploading? I've tried searching in the edit section but can't seem to find it?
Um you might have to upload a new file version of your modpack. I would try going to Files on your modpack curseforge page and on the top right you should see "upload file". If that doesn't work you should join the curseforge discord and ask that in the support section. discord.gg/curseforge
@BayGames okay, thank you 🙏 Will check in a little bit
@@Zeerua Hopefully it works out for you!
It says missing manifest json file every time i upload my files
It sounds like it might be a bad export. Try exporting the file again and verify it has a manifest file in the folder. If it doesn't work, I would contact the curseforge support team on their discord discord.gg/curseforge
@@BayGames if it doesnt has the file what do i do
@@slugdoc1633 Export the file again. Pretty much the only solution that worked for other people in the past.

@@DR4GONOSIS view your dashboard on curseforge, click on your modpack, click general, and next to your old pfp is where you upload the new one.
i followed the tutorial step by step by when i download it from the website,the mods dont download with it...
Hmm, that's odd. I just tried it and it worked for me. Did you double-check that you had mods selected on export? If it doesn't work again, could you try putting all of your mods into a new custom profile. After that, export the profile. Let me know if that works.
@@BayGames yea, i had to put in all the mods manually... and what about the server packs? i tried searching for that on youtube could not find any vid on that,can u make one?
