Summary
CurseForge is a mod launcher and configuration tool for Minecraft. CurseForge is the most accessible launcher available, boasting many mods and customizability for various games. CurseForge allows users to designate how much RAM Minecraft clients are allowed to use. By default, the launcher attempts to use system memory settings. However, more than this will be needed for most CurseForge Modpacks, so ensure the RAM is correctly set before running more involved packs.
