-    The length of `KETTING_VERSION` is 8, not 7 since it is taken from an abbreviated git commit hash. The value can be found in a jar file link on an Assets section for each releases.
+There are limited base versions supported, so you will also need to  set `VERSION`, such as "1.20.1" or later.
 
+`FORGE_VERSION` and `KETTING_VERSION` may be specified; however, they will be defaulted by the [Ketting launcher](https://github.com/kettingpowered/kettinglauncher) otherwise.
+Available Ketting Versions may be found at [https://github.com/kettingpowered/Ketting-1-20-x/packages/2041866/versions](https://github.com/kettingpowered/Ketting-1-20-x/packages/2041866/versions).
+The Version structure is `MinecraftVersion-ForgeVersion-KettingVersion` (e.g. `1.20.1-47.2.20-0.1.4` is for Minecraft `1.20.1`, Forge `47.2.20` and Ketting `0.1.4`).
