Hello beautiful people ^ cutting to the chase, I'm a mute (means you can't talk) and I've been trying to stream since I was 13 (16 now). I try to create interesting gameplay but nothing really stands out. Recently I've been making some poppy little graphics for the stream and thought about doing Vtube to give my stream some personality, but those are bloody expensive ahah. When I try to install Minecraft on Twitch, it says I'm missing a few pieces. When I press the install button the circular loading bar pops up briefly and goes back to the few pieces page like nothing happened. Ive tried moving the Minecraft library package contents to the twitch folder but that didn't work. Depends on what you really want of course but it is really easy to do and you don't have to rely on modpacks or Twitch to have fun with mods once you know how to setup a modloader no matter the version of Minecraft 1.6.4+ (pointing out 1.6 due to how the Vanilla Launcher and otherwise can work with Forge as 1.5.2 and prior have core mod folders. In a surprising move, Twitch has announced that they have sold CurseForge, the home of many game mods, including WoW's addon repository, to Overwolf for an undisclosed sum. With this change, Addon management will be leaving the Twitch Client in the near future, moving to a standalone Overwolf app.

Although we typically recommend that you download all modpacks through the Twitch App using the browse feature, you might want to download an Alpha or Beta version of a modpack, without displaying all Alphas and Betas in the app. To do this, you will first need to navigate to the modpack you would like to import on https://minecraft.curseforge.com.

There are unimaginable things one can do in Minecraft and this number increases after you mod the game or install mods in your copy of Minecraft.

“Mod System Installer” will open. Check the “Install Client” box.
(Optional) If you player want to choose a different place rather than the original game folder to install the mod, click on the 3 dots “…” next to the box saying the file path of the default install directory (.minecraft folder) then navigate to the folder you want to install the mod into.
Click install and wait till it gets completed.
Open your Minecraft Launcher and select “forge” profile and enjoy your moded version Minecraft.
Make a note that there should be NO other mods in the folder for other versions of Forge otherwise your game won’t load.
If a mod is not installing, make sure that it is compatible with your versions of Forge and Minecraft and sometimes one also prevents the installation and working of other mods so have a check on that too.
