How do I install distant horizons and tectonic into iris?

So, I downloaded iris and distant horizons from https://discord.com/channels/774352792659820594/1204239966784327730, and I downloaded 1.20.4, so from there, where do I put distant horizons and tectonic at? I read the whole thing and I don't understand where to put it!

Iris and horizons is 1.20.4 while fabric is 1.20.2, that's the latest one I could find

Moh
Moh4mo ago
Wait, I just installed 1.20.4 When I installed 20.4 fabric, it installed 20.2 for some reason

The testing builds arnt to compatible with other mods and its not recommended to use them with other mods in their current state
Moh
Moh4mo ago
I tried again just now and installed 20.4
KingZee
KingZee4mo ago
Hmmm that's strange
Moh
Moh4mo ago
Oh alr

After removing the entity culling mod, it launched. Someone in another channel recommended it so I had it in. Hopefully this helps someone sounds right to me did it launch for you
Moh
Moh4mo ago
yeah, but no mods

AFAIK, allocating 28GB of RAM to minecraft messes up the garbage collection and degrades performance. For a heavily modded game, I usually allocate 8GB at maximum, 4GB for less modded games. Just a heads up.
KingZee
KingZee4mo ago
OMG BRO 28 GB?? Wdym no mods? Like what happened?
EvKene
EvKene4mo ago
Thanks for letting me know, I'll test both configurations out Yeah, I have 32

corey28684mo ago
never allocated more than half your ram to mc
EvKene
EvKene4mo ago
Why is that
corey2868
corey28684mo ago
Lag and can reduce fps
TheNukeLore
TheNukeLore4mo ago
Max you should give is 4-6
EvKene
EvKene4mo ago
Thanks, I'll make sure to lower it next time I play
Moh
Moh4mo ago
Sorry for hella late response, I was at a friends house, but when I loaded up again, tectonic nor DH was installed. I even dragged and dropped them all, aswell as I dragged and dropped fabric api, sodium, and indium into my mods folder Also, which one do I load up, fabric, or iris in the launcher?
Moh
Moh4mo ago
This is what my mods folder looks like

I removed the directory before "AppData" for privacy reasons, just a heads up!

Fabric. You need to take the fabric jar for DH out of the zip
Moh
Moh4mo ago
What do you mean by that?
Slooshie
Slooshie4mo ago
If you don’t know how to properly put distant horizons in the mods folder then you shouldn’t be testing these betas. Read #dh-compatibility-faq
Moh
Moh4mo ago
I dont really care 😂 Oh wait im stupid, I get it now Gotta go to the zip and take out fabric jar

Just remember that there is a risk of damage your computer and or world There is no guarantee that your computer will be fine and it’s a test at your own risk
Moh
Moh4mo ago
Yeah World is fine, Ill just create a new one But, how would it damage my computer? I do have good computer knowledge, as I built the pc I currently have, and I know alot about how to diagnose/fix computers, besides coding, I don't know coding
infinite_star
infinite_star4mo ago
it would damage the coding of your computer :lul:
Moh
Moh4mo ago
Ofc 😂 The only thing I dont know :lul:
Slooshie
Slooshie4mo ago
It’s mainly the possibility of causing your PC to crash (blue screen, freeze up, etc.) but no permanent physical damage should occur unless there’s something already wrong like having no thermal compound lol The “may cause damage to your computer” part is to scare away people who don’t know anything about mods
Moh

Oh alr, I've dealt woth hella blue screens in the past 😂 Thanks bro! ❤️
