Installing Vivecraft



Installation is simple. Follow these steps to install the Vivecraft client. Installation is the same the first time you install and for updates. Vivecraft can be installed multiple times, with various options, without issue.



1. Run the Minecraft Launcher on your PC at least once in order to create the game folders. You don't have to start the game. Close the launcher. 2. Check that the Minecraft Launcher is NOT running. 3. Run the Vivecraft Installer. Make note of the checkboxes to install hover your mouse over each option to view what it does. Generally you should leave the defaults. If you require assistance with Forge modifications, you should check the Forge box. If Forge isn't detected by the installer, it will download and run it for you. Do not give more RAM than you actually need. 4GB is more than enough for all but the biggest modpacks.
