MultiMC Setup

= MultiMC Setup Guide = NOTE: THIS WAS LAST REVISED ON NOVEMBER 7th, 2020 USING VERSION 2.0.9.0

In this guide we will walk through:


 * Downloading the Files
 * MultiMC Setup and Configuration
 * Importing GT:New Horizons into MultiMC

Downloading the Files
While our pack is hosted on many launchers we also maintain a repository of all of our releases. For the purpose of this guide we will be utilizing our hosted repositories as well as the MultiMC launcher.


 * 1) Download MultiMC from here:https://files.multimc.org/downloads/mmc-stable-win32.zip
 * 2) Download the client pack from here: http://downloads.gtnewhorizons.com/Multi_mc_downloads/GTNewHorizonsClient-1.7.10-2.0.9.0QF4-MMC.zip



MultiMC Setup and Configuration
Next we need to setup and configure MultiMC.


 * 1) Right click and "Extract All..." on mmc-stable-win32.zip.
 * 2) Name the folder it extracts to MultiMC (the name doesn't actually matter).

Once you have it all extracted navigate into the folder to find and double click on the file called:


 * 1) Choose your language and click "Next".
 * 2) Select the proper java version. (Usually the only time you run into issues with autoselecting Java is if you don't have Java installed - that is outside the scope of this guide).
 * 3) Set the DEFAULT minimum/maximum memory allocation to something reasonable. Since we are setting this up for GT:New Horizons I'm going to set it right here to the recommended values for this pack so we don't have to change it later. Sometimes it is easier to set the maximum first then the minimum because MultiMC is a little wonky here for some reason.
 * 4) 4096 MB for Minimum.
 * 5) 8192 MB for Maximum.
 * 6) Click "Next".
 * 7) Choose whether or not you want to "Enable Analytics" or not and then click "Finish".

'''NOTE: Don't act like a computer expert and set your maximum RAM to 16GB or 32GB thinking you're smarter than everyone else. I won't go into the details here but feel free to research Java Garbage Collection if you want to be so smart. If you come into Discord asking why your game is lagging or spiking and you've not followed the recommended minimums and maximums on RAM in this guide because "you've never had a problem before" or some other reason that you think makes you so smart then you're likely not going to get any help.'''

'''NOTE: How to use more than 8GB of maximum RAM? Sorry, Smarty McSmart Pants just follow the recommendations.'''

Importing GT:New Horizons into MultiMC
Next we're going to import the pack into MultiMC.


 * 1) Click "Add Instance" button on the MultiMC window.
 * 2) We're going to select "Import from zip" on the left side of the window that pops up.
 * 3) Browse to your downloads folder and select the GTNewHorizonsClient-1.7.10-2.0.9.0QF4-MMC.zip and click "Open".
 * 4) Click "OK". This will Import GT:New Horizons into MultiMC.
 * 5) Click on "Profiles" in the upper right hand side of the MultiMC window and select "Manage Accounts".
 * 6) Click "Add" on the right hand side of this window and add your Minecraft account credentials and hit "OK".
 * 7) Close the Settings Window.
 * 8) Double Click the GTNH pack to start the launcher.
 * 9) If you get a Windows Firewall window that pops up it is ok to click "Allow Access".
