Useful information for players and admins:



Client Installation:

Use your favourite Modpack launcher to install Above and Beyond:

Server Installation:

Grab the respective Server Pack from the files section of the curseforge page and extract the files.

  • Run the installer jar and target the folder it is in.
  • To start the server, run the forge-1.16.5-36.2.8.jar with Java 8
    The recommended launch command is as follows: (terminal/bash/cmd)
java -Xmx8G -Xms8G -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=2147483646 -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:G1NewSizePercent=0 -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=50 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=32M -XX:+UseG1GC -jar forge-1.16.5-36.2.8.jar nogui



Client Pack Updates:

Use your launcher to install the new pack version as a new separate instance. Transfer the following files/folders from your old instance using a file explorer:

  • The saves folder to keep singleplayer worlds
  • options.txt to keep your Game Settings & Keybinds
  • servers.dat for any stored multiplayer servers
  • local folder to keep FTB map data
  • schematics folder to keep any Create Schematics you created



Server Pack Updates:

Grab the new Server Pack from the files section.

  • Stop the server and create a backup of the world.
  • Delete only the folders from the server which are included in the new serverpack. (such as kubejs, config, mods, etc.)
  • Add the folders from the serverpack.
  • Start the server back up.

Note: Version 1.3 uses a newer version of Forge. This is important for your servers' security. To update forge delete forge-[...].jar, minecraft_server.jar & the libraries folder. Then run the installer shipped with 1.3's server pack.
