This is a step-by-step process to install The Aether Collaboration mod Version 1.03 by Kingbdogz, Shockah, Kodaichi, Flan, _303, and Saspiron. Follow closely! This version of the Aether is compatible and packed with Forge. All credit goes to Forge for their API!

This mod is compatible with Version 1.0.0 of Minecraft, and requires the following API/Mods in order to successfully run:

- "Modloader" By Risugami
- "ModloaderMP" By Flan
- "Audio Mod" By Risugami
- "ShockAhPI" By Shockah
- "PlayerAPI" By Flan

The list is quite long but this ensures that maximum compatibility is allowed between the Aether and various other mods.

Once you have installed the above mods, you can install the Aether:


1. First of all, go to your start menu. If you have Windows 7 there should already be a search bar there. If you use Windows XP, find a program on the side called "Run" and open it. Once you've clicked on the search bar, type in %appdata%

2. This should open up a folder called Roaming with a bunch folders inside. On the very top should be a folder called ".minecraft". Open it. Once inside, open another folder called "bin", and then open the "minecraft.jar" file with Winrar.

3. Now, go back to the "Aether_1.03" folder then "Jars" folder that you downloaded before. Inside there should be a bunch of folders and files. Drag them into the "minecraft.jar" you opened up recently with Winrar and press yes if it asks you to replace some files. Once done, delete the folder inside called "META-INF".

4. After that, you must go back to the original ".minecraft" folder that you were in before the "bin" folder. Once you are inside that folder, go back to the "Aether_1.03" folder and drag both the "resources" folder into ".minecraft". Press yes if it asks you to merge any folders.

5. Close down all the windows and start up Minecraft. Wait a while, and if it ends up black screening then you have a problem. If not, then enjoy!


If you happen to use Too Many Items (commonly known as TMI), it must be noted that you must install it AFTER you've installed the Aether, otherwise it will not work correctly.


Thanks for the patience!
