Download the latest release. 2. Download and install a Minecraft launcher of your choice. You can use the [Modrinth app](https://modrinth.com/app), or a third-party one like **[MultiMC](https://multimc.org/)** or **[PrismLauncher](https://prismlauncher.org/)**. 3. For the official Modrinth app, check out [this support page](https://support.modrinth.com/en/articles/8802250-modpacks-on-modrinth). The rest of these instructions are for either of the other listed launchers! 4. Ensure you have **Java 17+.** If you don’t, or you’re not sure, download it from [Oracle](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/#jdk17-windows) and install it. 5. Make sure that your launcher of choice is using **Java 17+** by either pointing it at your Java 17 executable during setup, or going to Settings > Java and pointing the Java Path at your Java 17+ executable. 6. In your launcher's settings, make sure the **max RAM** is high enough; 4096MB should be more than enough. 7. In your launcher, click the **Add Instance** button in the top left. 8. Select the **Import from zip** option in the left menu. 9. Select **Browse** and open the .mrpack file for _Isabel’s Aeroscapes_ that you downloaded. If you don't see it, you might have to set the file type in the browse window to ".mrpack". 10. After import has completed, **double-click** the new instance that was just created to launch. **Done!**

Check out [this support page](https://support.modrinth.com/en/articles/8802250-modpacks-on-modrinth) for more info. ❓ **Are there any vanilla features missing from this pack?** > The only missing features are certain structures that are incompatible with Aeroscapes world generation, like Ancient Cities and Ocean Monuments. I plan on adding alternative methods for getting the blocks and items exclusive to these structures in a future update. Elytra have been intentionally removed. ❓ **Will this pack be updated to newer Minecraft versions?** > The pack is on 1.19.2, the version that was the latest available when I started working on it. I might update it in the future if the majority of the mods in the pack (or suitable alternatives) become available. For now, there is not enough mod support for me to want to update it (nor has the vanilla game added anything that I think would really make the Aeroscapes experience better). ❓ **Will this pack be made available through CurseForge?** > Nope! ❓ **Whoa, my performance is terrible!** > Hey, that's not a question! First, make sure your launcher has enough RAM. The default configuration is usually not enough. Then try disabling shaders, then LambDynamicLights, then Sound Physics Remastered: those are the most performance-impacting mods in the pack. ❓ **What's next for the pack?** > I want to add a bunch of things! More ruined structures to find and explore, nether improvements, world generation details and support for biome expansions like [Terralith](https://modrinth.com/mod/terralith), guidebooks and advancements, customized [Bounties](https://modrinth.com/mod/bountiful), and more. ❓ **When will the pack be "finished"?** > I plan on cleaning everything up and releasing it in a "complete" form alongside the release of Create Aeronautics, an in-development addon for the Create mod that adds fully-drivable, physics-enabled airship parts. You can follow the development of that mod on their [Discord server](https://discord.gg/createaeronautics)!
