Importing modpacks

Let's import our first modpack.

There are two main types of modpacks: Simple and Wizard.

Simple requires no user interaction, but you can customize your import if you’d like. Wizard requires user interaction.

Firstly, figure out what kind of modpack this is:

> ./FFMT-LINUX mpinfo -t /path/to/modpack.ttmp2
Type: Simple
Author: 80cent
Version: 1.1
Description: N/A
Number of mods: 9001

Importing a full modpack

> ./FFMT-LINUX mpi -t /path/to/modpack.ttmp2 --all

Selectively importing mods from a simple modpack

> ./FFMT-LINUX mpi -t /path/to/modpack.ttmp2
Starting import...
Extracting data from modpack.ttmp2...
Would you like to use the Wizard for importing?
(Y)es, let me select the mods
(N)o, import everything

Choices:
    1 - Star Trek

    2 - Star Wars
         Description         

  Choose one or multiple (eg: 1 2 3, 0-3, *)

 > 1 2

Start the import. Wizard will be automatically used as long as the modpack is of type Wizard:

> ./FFMT-LINUX mpi -t /path/to/modpack.ttmp2

Follow the on-screen prompts. Example:

Choices:
    1 - Gryffindor
         Description
    2 - Slytherin
         Description
    3 - Ravenclaw
         Description

         Description
         
  Choose one or multiple (eg: 1 2 3, 0-3, *)
  > 1-3
  • Choices are separated by spaces.
  • * selects all.
  • Ranges can be combined (eg: 1-3 5-6, to skip choice 4)
