How to play:

 

1. To get started, go to the files tab and look at the different versions of the Cursed Walking modpack that are available. More details on the differences between these is available in the above spoiler.

2. Next, start the modpack. Once the Minecraft launcher opens up, check how much RAM you have allocated and make sure to set it to at least 4GB, preferably 6GB. This modpack is pretty RAM demanding, and if you are playing with shaders or at a higher render distance you may need to allocate up to 8GB of RAM. Watch this video if you are unsure how to allocate RAM. If you are experiencing lag spikes in game, it is most likely because you have not allocated enough RAM.

3. If you are playing single player, create a new world. Cities are enabled by default now, manually enabling them is not needed and discouraged as it might lead to chunk generation errors.

4. This modpack comes with a few core resource packs force-enabled. Other optional resource packs can be enabled by going to options > resource packs. 


FAQ:
Q: How do I play multiplayer with this modpack?
A: There are a variety of options. 1) Click the banner above and use the code available to get a deal on a server through Shockbyte. You can also use other mainstream server hosts, like Bisect Hosting and Pine. The modpack server files can be easily downloaded on there to get you set up playing quickly. 2) Use the provided server files to set up your own server, like on Aternos. 3) Use a multiplayer mod like e4mc or Essential. These mods have some known issues, especially with larger modpacks like this one and/or when playing with a lot of friends. I recommend using a server unless you plan to play with less than three people. 

Q: Are there server files available for this modpack?
A: Yes. The server files are available under "additional files" for each version of the modpack posted in "Files"

Q: Optifine/Oculus is crashing/freezing the modpack; what do I do?
A: Optifine should not be added to the modpack (unless you are playing on the 1.16.5 version). There is shader/resource pack/etc support by default.
