What are Mods?​
Mods are an extension that can be installed to make your Minecraft world much more exciting. Anyone can make a mod...if they know how to. I have been playing for many years, and I still have no clue how to. It takes months of coding. Anyway, to install a mod, a program called Forge is required. Although, it is fairly easy to download and install.
Installing Forge
Forge is an extension to Minecraft, that allows mods to be added. Follow the steps below to download Forge:
​
1. To download forge, click here.
2. On the left, you will see a panel labeled minecraft versions. Click the version you want. Now, in the box labeled "download recommended", click installer in the corner.
3. Double click (open) forge on your desktop or wherever it is stored (I assume you already know how to do that). A new window will pop up. Make sure "Install Cient" (as shown in photo) is selected, then press ok.
4. You have now downloaded Forge. Follow instructions on how to download mods to continue.

Downloading Mods
With the help of your new forge extension, these next steps will be a breeze! Before you get started, make sure that whatever mod you download is compatible with your forge (if downloaded the 1.10.2 forge, than you mod MUST be 1.10.2. If it is not, than just download another version of forge).
​
1. Open finder. Go into the control bar on the very top of your mac (where the apple sign is). Then click go, and click (on your keyboard) option. You should then see a change. Click, library.
2. You will now see a finder window pop up. In the search bar, type "Minecraft". The panel under the search bar. Then (as shown in the picture), click library next to "This Mac".
3. Scroll down until you see two folders labeled "minecraft". Click one of them (any one). If there is only ONE folder inside labeled "launchwrapper", than go back and choose the other folder. This minecraft folder should have at least 20 different things inside. The more you use it, the more things there will be (Do not worry if your folder gets completely stuffed, its normal).
4. Open up the folder labeled "Mods". Drag your chosen mod into the folder.
5. Congratulations! You're done! All you have to do now, is run your new minecraft version that forge has created, and play! Enjoy!
