# RLCraft Minecraft 1.12.2 Docker(Portainer) + Client Setup
## Client Set-up
### Download CurseForge
- Visit [CurseForge](https://www.curseforge.com/download/app) and download the standalone version
- Run through the installer with standard options unless you intend to run a custom install.
- Open the curseforge application.
- In the search bar at the top, search for `RLCraft` and click `Install`.
~~- Once installed, go to the mod install folder by using the 3 dots.~~
~~- Find the `"mods"` folder and delete a file called `LootTweaker`, this will remove any conflicts with the server.~~
- Removing the mod breaks the recipes, no longer needed to join the server when using the serverpack from curseforge.
- Click play and sign into your Microsoft account(You can close curseforge after launching).
- Visit the mod folder
- Agree to the terms and conditions(Microsoft gives warnings because it doesn't support the latest security measures in old version of Minecraft).
- Click Play and join the Server through multiplayer and the domain name/IP address(Takes awhile to load).
- You can add a port at the end of the domain name if it's using a custom port `:`.
### Server-Side Setup With Portainer

```
- After the server has been setup, the easiest way to get the mod running is by downloading the server files from curseforge
- Once downloaded, extract all of the files into the folder where the docker server is and overwrite them.
- To achieve this, I followed [this written guide](https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/samba-file-server) or [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRHSrnQueak&t=42s) in order set up a samba share and access the folder.
