Thisis a tutorial for installing both the 1.7.10 and 1.16 versions of this mod and is written in order to be as approachable as possible for players who have never installed mods. It assumes that you know common terminology such as "browser" and "directory". Please read the directions for your section completely before you begin to follow them. This may prevent some mistakes.

The four major components of any computer are the CPU (central processing unit), the GPU (graphics processing unit), RAM (random access memory), and hard drive. In order to run the mod, it is recommended to have at least the following PC specs:


All else being equal, a desktop will generally run the mod better than a laptop, and is easier to upgrade should the need arise. The mod can be run successfully on most mid-to-high end laptops, but overheating may become an issue.


Minecraft comes bundled with its own version of Java, so the game doesn't need Java to run per se. However, you will need to download and install Java in order to run the Forge installer.


The following is a tutorial on allocating memory for minecraft using the LOTR mod. Please note that allocating the recommended amount of memory will require a 64-bit version of java. Choose your launcher below.


Storage space scales with the number of worlds and therefore the amount of space you'll need depends on the number of singleplayer worlds you have and the amount of exploration you do in those worlds. The bare minimum for the mod and Minecraft's program files is around 210 MB. 1GB is plenty for storing just game files and one or two worlds, and is totally adequate if you plan to play almost exclusively on servers. More space (4GB or so) will allow you to keep more worlds and screenshots, and allow you to use community-made Resource Packs and Music Packs. Having an SSD will make the game start up faster and speed chunk loading, but is not required.


All of the following downloads will be found in your Home > Downloads folder, unless you have re-directed your downloads for that browser to another location. Don't open any of these files from your browser.


The main page of this wiki has a download link prominently displayed; the same link is provided below. Click the link in the box that says: "The latest mod version is" and you will be directed to a new page.


Forge for 1.7.10 can be found here, while the version for 1.16 can be found here. Follow the following instructions in the "Download Recommended" box. If you are running Windows, click Windows Installer. If you are running Mac or Linux, choose the Installer option.


Note: The legacy mod must be run on Minecraft and Forge 1.7.10, while the Renewed mod must be run on Minecraft and Forge 1.16. Attempting to mix and match Minecraft, Forge, and mod versions will result in crashes.


Now open Minecraft launcher and run it in 1.7.10 to the title screen. You just need to have run vanilla Minecraft 1.7.10 at least once. Do this to be safe if you are not sure. Close minecraft. Navigate to your downloads folder. You should see the forge installer. Open it by double clicking, and it should say at the bottom "C:/Users//AppData/Roaming/.minecraft". Select download client (one of the little bubbles). Let it run. This may take a few minutes.


Now go to your home button and search %appdata% and press enter. Open the folder named Roaming and go to the .minecraft folder. Right click and make a new folder. Name it "mods", if one does not already exist. Running Forge once to your title screen will create the folder. Go to your download folder and copy and paste the "[1.7.10] The Lord of the Rings Mod Bxx.jar" file of the mod into your mods folder.


Go to your Minecraft launcher. Do not press play. In the bottom left there is a dropdown menu called "" (note that it will be your player name, not actually the word ""). Click it. There should be a profile named forge. Select it and press play. You should now be able to enjoy what this mod has to offer.


Now go to your home button and search %appdata% and press enter. Open the folder named Roaming and go to the .minecraft folder. Right click and make a new folder. Name it "mods", if one does not already exist. Running Forge once to your title screen (as suggested above) will create the folder. Go to your download folder and copy and paste the "[1.7.10] The Lord of the Rings Mod Bxx.jar" file of the mod into your mods folder. Then go back to the launcher and enjoy.


The MultiMC launcher is one of the easiest methods to use. First, click 'Add Instance' in the top left corner. In the window that opens, scroll down to 1.7.10 and enter a name at the top, then press OK. Then select the new instance and click 'Launch'. MultiMC will then download the vanilla files and load the game. Once it has done this, close the game and return to the launcher. Click 'Edit Instance' and then in the new window click the 'Install Forge' button on the right-hand side. Select the recommended version in the window and click OK. Then click the 'Loader Mods' tab on the left of the instance window and then 'Add' in the top right. You can then navigate to the LotR mod .jar you downloaded and add it.


Now open Minecraft launcher and run it in 1.7.10 to the title screen. You just need to have run vanilla Minecraft 1.7.10 at least once. Do this to be safe if you are not sure. Close Minecraft. Navigate to your downloads folder. You should see the Forge installer jar file. Open it by double clicking, and select install client (one of the little bubbles). Let it run. This may take a few minutes.


Go to your Minecraft launcher. Do not press play. In the bottom left there is a dropdown menu called "" (note that it will be your player name, not actually the word ""). Click it. There should be a profile named "Forge". Select it and press play. You should now be able to enjoy what this mod has to offer.


After having downloaded both files, move them both from your "Downloads" folder to your Desktop, for easy access. Run your MC launcher, whether you use the command line, or an icon on your launcher. Once the launcher starts, click the button at the bottom that says "New Profile". A new window will open, and there will be a line for a name. Name it "1.7.10 Forge", "LOTR", or whatever you will remember. Below that, there will be a dropdown labelled "Version". Click the dropdown and select "1.7.10". Go down some more and find the box labelled "Use JVM Arguments". Check it, and a box that was greyed out will not be. Toward the front of the bar, you will see a bit of text that looks like "Xmx1GB". Change the "1" to a "2". This allocates more RAM to your LOTR profile so that you can play without memory related crashes. Click "Save Profile" at the bottom of the window. Make sure that the profile is selected by going to the lower left of your launcher and making sure that the name of your profile is shown. If it is not, click the dropdown and select it. Click "Play" and let MC load.


after the text that appears from dragging in the forge file. Hit to run the command. A little window will pop up. Select the "Install Client" bubble and click "Install". This may take a few minutes. Let it do it's thing. It will tell you once it has been successful. Open your Minecraft launcher again. Make sure you have the profile you created earlier selected. Click "Edit Profile". Under the versions dropdown, at the bottom, there should now be a version of 1.7.10 with forge installed. Select this, and then press save profile. Click "play". You can quit game once again once it has loaded.


Now, open your file browser. Navigate to the "View" menu at the top of your screen, and click "Show Hidden Files". Find the ".minecraft" folder, which should be located in your home directory. In this folder, there should be a folder called "mods". Place the file [1.7.10] The Lord of the Rings Mod B... .jar, that you downloaded directly into this folder without modifying it in any way. You might want to back up the "saves" folder in your ".minecraft" while you are at it, in order to prevent any of your worlds getting corrupted. Make sure not to play any old Minecraft worlds with LOTR installed, create new ones. To back it up, simply make a copy of the file on your desktop or elsewhere. To switch back to vanilla, just change your profile in the launcher so it has your MC username.


If everything worked properly, you'll see the LotR map moving around in the background, when watching the Minecraft title screen. This feature was added in Public Beta 30. Also, since Public Beta 25, new world options are available when creating a new world.


Otherwise, when you spawn into your new world, you will start off in a vanilla Minecraft world. To get to Middle-earth, you will need to create a gold ring, and throw this into a fire (or lava). When all is said and done, it usually takes one iron ingot, a gold ingot, and a piece of flint to get into Middle-earth.


You can either go into Creative or use NotEnoughItems to cheat these items in, or you can gather all the things you need within an hour or less. Another option is to use a world seed that spawns you right next to a desert pyramid or jungle temple, and get the loot. Each pyramid/temple will usually have enough loot to create a Flint-and-Steel and a Gold Ring.


If you run into problems installing the Lord of the Rings Mod, please ask in the "technical-support" channel on our Discord server. The community will be happy to assist you with any issues you might run into.


This is a guide for installing the Pixelmon mod through one of the many supported launchers. This guide and its sub-pages will cover installing Pixelmon to a client, for use in single player or for playing on servers. If you want to create a server, please see our server installation guide instead.


Minecraft, by default, comes with a launcher program that will allow you to log into your account and manage your different installations. While this works well for the base game, installing Forge and its mods can be a difficult process. As such, you can find pre-built Pixelmon packs on several custom launchers that will automatically install everything you need to get playing.
