Plainly, the offset step is to decide which mods we want to use in our pack. For this example we will exist using Buildcraft past SirSengir/Krapht, Dimensional Doors by StevenRS11, Thermal Expansion by King Lemming/Team CoFH, Modular Powersuits by MachineMuse, and Minefactory Reloaded/PowerConverters/NetherOres/Flatbedrock by Ability Crystals.

Mods go in a 'mods' folder, and whatsoever config files you've created go in the 'configs' binder. The only exception to this is if a mod has files that demand to be placed inside minecraft.jar. Equally you should never redistribute minecraft as per the Terms of Use, you volition instead place all of these files inside a 'modpack.jar' yous create yourself. A Jar is only a zip annal recognized past java, so creation of the jar is as unproblematic equally renaming a zip as jar.
