New to this whole minecraft mod shenanigan thing

Hi, I just started playing minecraft again after i left off on 1.5.2. I have my friend who told me to install Prism Launcher and never do any modding yet. I install nightbuild for 1.20.1 version and it doesn't work. I don't know what should i do.

then you should start by making a 1.21.1 profile and download the nightly build for 1.21.1 is there a reason you want to use the nightly build? its generally better to use the stable builds

i don't see stable build for 1.21 yet? also

those are quite essential to use DH they are mod loaders they load the mod into minecraft

im not sure exactly how prism works. but i assume when making a new profile, you can select the mod loader have you made a new profile yet?
SheepAnthuriumYhung
yes as you can see i downloaded NeoForge already I complied it already let me try again oh cool i see it now is there some fan made mod + shader complier in this server? or DH custom setting preference?

the only shader loader that is compatible with DH is iris
SheepAnthuriumYhung
shader is for shading right? but texture pack is free?
Puhpine

a shader is to make the game look pretty, and you need a shader loader to load a shader. texture packs changes the texture on stuff. both shaders and texture packs are free shaders: https://modrinth.com/shaders texture packs: https://modrinth.com/resourcepacks

I will install iris shader later, i'm testing DH on multiplayer rn
