Requirements


Steps

  1. Install Fabric Loader for Minecraft 1.20.1 using the official installer.
  2. Download Fabric API and place it in your mods/ folder.
  3. Download the latest autodownload-x.x.x.jar and place it in your mods/ folder.
  4. Launch the game once — the config file is generated automatically.
  5. Close the game, then edit the config to add your files.

See the Configuration page for a full guide on setting up the config.


Finding Your Minecraft Folder

Platform Path
Windows %appdata%.minecraft
macOS ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft
Linux ~/.minecraft

If you are using a custom launcher or profile, the game directory may be different. Check your launcher settings for the correct path.


Verifying It Works

After setting up your config, relaunch the game. If any files listed in your config are missing, the Download Prompt screen will appear automatically once the main menu loads.

If the prompt does not appear, check that:

  • Your downloads.json config exists at config/autodownload/downloads.json
  • At least one entry has a valid link field
  • The files are not already present in their target folders
