# Welcome To the new **All The Guides**, by **All The Mods** ( *ATM*). {% hint style="warning" %} ATM has custom changes and additions, mostly recipes. This means it’s only for ATM packs, and may not be the same for other packs. {% endhint %} ## Intro Are you new to **Minecraft**, **All The Mods**, or just need help getting started? Here you’ll find some **Tips** and **Guides** on getting started with **All The Mods**! ### Getting Started **All The Mods** packs require a PC that has at least **16GB** or more system RAM for the best *playable* experience. Allocating between **8-12GB** RAM is required for most of our packs. Smaller (*Lite*) designed packs can run with at least **4GB** allocated. This must be changed within [Launcher](#launchers) settings. **8GB** minimum is **recommended**. ### Requirements * An official **Mojang** / **Microsoft** account for **Java Edition**. * A third-party [launcher](#launchers) that can download, install, and run our packs. * A PC with at least **16GB** or more **RAM**. ### Launchers The most common launchers are [CurseForge](https://www.curseforge.com/download/app), [FTB App](https://www.feed-the-beast.com/ftb-app), [PolyMC](https://polymc.org/), [Prism](https://prismlauncher.org/), [ATLauncher](https://atlauncher.com/) and [GDLauncher](https://gdlauncher.com/en/). You will need one of these launchers to install packs. Sign into your **Microsoft** account and search for the modpack of your choice to install. Allocation By default, in the launcher or instance (modpack) settings, **4GB** is allocated. **Recommended** MAX allocation is **8-12GB** | `8192-12288`Mb. You should **never** allocate all of or more RAM than necessary. Additionally, some launchers may install and use the appropriate version of [Java](/guides/general/java.md), though make sure you’re using the correct version of [Java](/guides/general/java.md) for the **Minecraft** version of the pack installed. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
