This modpack is installed with the Overwolf/Curseforge (formerly Twitch) application. Manual installs will not work.
As of the year 2021, the twitch Minecraft app has officially moved to Overwolf/Curseforge. Luckily, It works nearly identically to the old Twitch app.
If you don't want to use Curseforge, you can try using MCmulti, though it isn't the best method.
For versions before 1.1.5: It is also highly recommended that you download, and manually insert Custommobspawner 3.11.4 in order to prevent a common CustomNPC error.
Setup - 3 Very important steps to follow!:
1. Make sure "profile options" shows Forge 14.23.5.2855
2. Recommended to have at least 4gb ram allocation. You do this by clicking the Butterfrog Modpack, then click the gear icon, and navigate to "profile options -> memory settings". Optimal is 5gb+. If you do not change the default memory settings, you will experience what feels like lag when you try to run the modpack.
3. Optifine can help some players and is recommended, but not required. Some players actually run better without using Optifine.
Modpack description:
The Butterfrog modpack has every player in mind - from the hardy adventurer to the peaceful builder. The idea is to provide endless exploration options while still having a home to return to at the end of the day. You can choose to have that home in a dangerous spot in the wilderness, or some place more fortified (like a colony with NPCs).
Exploration is incentivized with balanced rewards. Not overpowered ones. Players need to work to get treasures, and upgrades. There is a sense of moderate progression as players gain new magical skills, move to new planets, or tame wild creatures for their benefit. Mods were selected that don't have overly complicated methods of using those skills. No need to spend hours reading wiki guides.
At the same time, the world can feel empty at times if you don't have people to play with, so NPCs and questing are added. Some side-dimensions with rich story content are also included, if a player feels like doing something different.
Additionally, as of version 1.1.9, machinima making tools such as Aperture and Blockbuster were added. Be creative and record some fun Minecraft skits with your friends!
