Downloading & Installing Java
It's possible that your Minecraft is using an outdated Java version, which isn't optimally compatible with all Minecraft versions above 1.17. To run NearVanilla’s Official Modpack, you are required to use Java 17.
This section of the guide will walk you through how you can check if you have the appropriate Java version installed. If you find that you are not running the correct version of Java, do not worry! This section will also walk you through how to download and install Java 17 on your system.
How to check if you have Java 17
- Windows: Press the windows button, and use the search function to look up Command Prompt. Once the command prompt is open, type in java -version, this will show you your current java version.
- macOS: Press the magnifying glass on the menu bar, and use it to look up terminal. Once the terminal is open, type in java -version, this will show you your current java version.
- Linux: Open up the terminal and type in the command java -version, this will show you your current java version.
