๐Ÿ“ฅ Getting Started

Welcome to the R3CT Collector setup guide! This page will walk you through downloading the mod, installing the required dependencies, and opening your Catalog for the first time.

๐Ÿ”Œ Requirements & Dependencies

Before installing, ensure your game or server is running supported Minecraft version. You will also need to install a few library mods depending on your chosen mod loader:

๐ŸŸ  For Fabric:

  • Fabric API (Required)
  • Mod Menu (Optional - allows players to access the in-game settings screen)

๐Ÿ”ต For NeoForge:

  • Nothing! (The mod works entirely standalone on NeoForge).

๐Ÿ’พ Installation Guide

Installing the mod is exactly the same for both Singleplayer (Client) and Multiplayer (Server).

  1. Download the Mod: Grab the latest .jar file for your mod loader from Modrinth, CurseForge, or the GitHub Releases tab.
  2. Download Dependencies: Download the required libraries listed above for your specific loader.
  3. Locate your mods folder:
    • Windows: Press Win + R, type %appdata%\.minecraft\mods and hit Enter.
    • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/mods
    • Linux: ~/.minecraft/mods
    • Servers: Open your server's root directory and find the mods folder.
  4. Install: Drag and drop all the downloaded .jar files into the mods folder.
  5. Launch the game/server! ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿš€ First Launch & What's Next?

When you launch the game or start your server for the first time, the mod will automatically scan all available Creative Tabs and generate the configuration files.

You can find them in your directory under: config/r3ct_collector/

๐ŸŽฎ If you are a Player: You are good to go! Jump into the game and:

  • Press K (Default keybind) to open your Catalog Book.
  • Check your progress, submit items from your inventory, and view the Server Leaderboard!
