APortingCore

APortingCore is a tool by xkaiiiakx and GedeonGray that allows 1.8 to 1.12.2 Forge mods to run on 1.7.10 Forge. Compatibility of mods varies.

Default Installation

 * 1) Install Forge, put APortingCore into the mods folder (along with the mods from other versions)
 * 2) Run the launcher (it is recommended to NOT use mods from 1.7.10 along with the mods from other versions).

Loading mods from other versions vary in success.

MultiMC Installation
1.Go to the APortingCore Curseforge page Check the compatibility list for mods to use in the test.



2.Look for the MultiMC link and download the zip file here



3.Once downloaded extract the file, 2 folders named 'libraries' and 'patches' should be visible.



4.Create a MultiMC 1.7.10 instance.



5.Once created, go to the Edit instance button then select 'add empty' and put 'Forge' in the name box and 'net.minecraftforge' in the uid box. Load the game and a patches folder will be created. Remove the original patches folder and add the libraries folder and new patches folder outside the.minecraft folder (above the instance.cfg and mmc-pack.json files).



6.Load the game and a patches folder will appear. Remove the net.minecraftforge file that is part of the original patches folder. Add the libraries and patches folder from the zip file in place of it (another option is to take the code from the zip file patches' net.minecraftforge and paste it in the old one removing the old code with the larger new one).



7.Load the instance and if Forge is loaded it was setup correctly and the game does not crash immediately after reaching the title screen.



8.Add APortingCore 0.3 and compatible mods to the mods folder and load up the game. If the mods are loaded with more than 3 (the usual Forge files) then they are loaded correctly.



9.Create a new world for testing and see what happens.
