Forge 1.8.9 Tutorial

Initial Setup

  • Download the latest forge version

  • Run it to install forge
    3

  • Open minecraft launcher and check if forge's profile is there, if not then you can create it 4

  • Now that we're done with forge you can press windows+r and type %appdata% and open the .minecraft folder, then create a folder called "mods" if it isnt there already

Recommended Mods

  • OptiFine - General visual and performance enhancing mod.
  • Patcher - If you're wondering what patcher does check this thing I've made with all of its features, it's essentially a performance mod filled with bug fixes and quality of life features - a must have in every forge folder.
  • Old Animations Mod - This one is sk1er's OAM which is currently in beta and it already has an entire rewrite coming soon, its more accurate than orange's OAM and Spiderfrog's OAM and made to be compatible with other mods.
  • Powns Togglesprint - Adds a sprint and sneak toggle similar to that in Minecraft 1.15 and above, but does not allow for sneaking in inventories in order to be 1.8 compliant.
  • Resourcepack Manager - This is the best version of resource pack manager as the resource pack organizer Chylex made had some issues with custom sky.
  • Cowlection - A client-side only Forge mod that contains a collection of features (mainly for skyblock but otherwise its a good mod).
  • And you can always check sk1er.club for the latest sk1er llc/partners mods.

Mods that you may have not heard of

  • Revamped Timechanger - A mod for changing time client-side.
  • ChatTriggers - ChatTriggers is a framework for Minecraft that allows for live scripting and client modification using JavaScript. In other words, it's a mod that allows you to use javascript for stuff, and has tons of useful modules on their website. Please download the latest stable 1.3.1 release.
  • MiniInfo - Simple mod to display FPS, CPS, and ping by aycy.
  • ResourcePackDisplay - (Not to be confused with Resourcepack Manager) Display current pack, the mod also has the /rpd random command to randomly choose a pack from your packs folder with detection for incompatible and duplicate mods.
  • OnHitParticles - A mod to change what particles are shown when you hit someone with great customizability by aycy.
  • Damage Tint - A mod change the damage tint when you hit someone by aycy.
  • Block Overlay - A mod to change the block outline when you hover over blocks with complete customizability over the outline and a very nice unique GUI with live preview, most people use the old powns continuation of the mod but the original mod has been updated.
  • DJPerspectiveMod - A remake of canalex's perspective mod with bugfixes.
  • NotEnoughUpdates (skyblock mod) - A mod that provides an NEI interface for searching and viewing item crafting recipes, information & more in Hypixel Skyblock.
  • Quickplay - A mod to quickly join hypixel games & sort them to keybinds.
  • ReAuth - Fixes the Problem of having to restart your client when your session is invalid & more.
  • LinuxLWJGLKeyFix - Fixes a LWJGL bug causing incorrect registration of Shift+2 and Shift+6 on Linux systems.

Mods you should avoid - Alternatives

  • LabyMod - LabyMod causes a ton of incompatibilities with other mods because the devs love overwriting stuff for no reason like the entirety of the tab and stealing features and it is not recommended.
  • SkyblockExtras - SBE is heavily obfuscated, making it incompatible with many mods, is paid and therefore violates Mojang's EULA, and has a ton of problems causing crashes and visual glitches, and the developer steals stuff pepelaugh.
  • SkyblockCatia - Causes a ton of incompatibilities, see SBE alternatives.
  • Skypixel - Outdated and no longer works for Skyblock, see SBE alternatives.
  • SpiderFrog's OAM - has over 7mb of bloat and causes crashes. Instead you can use Sk1er's OAM which is currently in beta.
  • Orange Marshall's OAM - doesnt look like 1.7, missing animations like old sneaking animation, Overwrites many things unnecessarily causing other mods to break, like OptiFine's custom item texture. Instead you can use Sk1er's OAM which is currently in beta
  • PlayerAPI - only mod I've seen that uses PlayerAPI is the 2 years old powns togglesprint mod but fortunately enough developers now know how access transformers actually work and arent lazy.
  • ResourcePack organizer by Chylex - overwrites the custom sky for some bizarre reason lmao. Instead you can use Resourcepack Manager by aycy.
  • Modcore Container - was used to allow players to try out Modcore before it was a thing, but now modcore is auto installed with all Sk1er Mods/Partnered developer's mods and in any mod that contains it.
  • BetterChat - Overwrites the chat, hopefully getting a rewrite soon as the developer promised.
  • BetterFPS - Useless and can cause a LOT of issues as changing the base math the game depends on is a VERY bad idea, fast beacon and fast hopper are server side features so they are also useless, horrible mod overall.
  • TexFix - Useless unless you have a big modpack and can barely lower memory usage.
  • FoamFix - The 1.8.9 version is a useless and hacky mod however the 1.12.2 version is recommended.
  • 1.8.9 TcpNoDelay - Useless as 1.8.1 and above already has this enabled.
  • Vanilla Enhancements - Overwrites many things unnecessarily causing other mods to break, like overwriting chat and having a bannable feature its also unmaintained and abandoned which is why the chat tabs are broken and never getting fixed. Instead Patcher takes some of its best features and fixes them.
