Step 2) Download Galacticraft
Now, before we can install Galacticraft, we need to download it. So, let's get started. You can download Galacticraft by clicking here. This will take you to CurseForge. Once you're on this site, click on the ‘Files' tab, and then select the version of Galacticraft you are going to install. If you want to play with Galacticraft in Minecraft 1.13.2, you will need to select the 1.13.2 version of it. Once you've found the Galacticraft version you want, click the little download arrow next to the version name. That will start the download. You may need to keep/save the file. It is 100% safe!
Step 3) Install Galacticraft
So you've gotten Galacticraft downloaded, but how to do you actually get it installed. Well, this is actually really simple. Just hit the Windows Key on your keyboard and ‘R' at the exact same time. This will open up the ‘Run' program. In the search box type, ‘%appdata%'. This will launch the ‘Roaming' folder on your computer. At the very top of this folder, you will see a program called ‘.minecraft'. Open this folder, and in it, you should have a folder titled ‘mods'. If you don't, just create one!
After you've found or created your ‘mods' folder, installing Galacticraft is easy. Just take it and drag and drop them into this ‘mods' folder. After you've done that, the mods are installed! We aren't quite done yet though. We still need to make sure that we are selecting the right version of Forge.
Step 4) Open The Minecraft Launcher & Select The ‘Forge' Profile
In order to select the correct version of Forge, we need to open up the regular Minecraft launcher that we allow know and love. From here, we can click the up arrow next to the ‘Play' button.
