-Open MultiMC, click on "**Settings**" on the top horizontal toolbar, then on the "**Console**" tab, and ensure that the following two options are ticked:
-"**Show console when game is running?**"
-"**Show console when the game crashes?**"
-Start the Minecraft instance, when the game crashes, use the ''Upload'' button on the top right side of the instance **Console window**, in the **Minecraft Log** Tab to upload your log and post the link copied to your clipboard.
-----
-===== Upload your log =====
-Do not copy and paste, drag and drop, screenshot, or significantly alter your logs. **Use a paste service, then post the link to the paste in Discord chat.**
-Open the log file, copy the contents to the clipboard, and paste them in a paste, for example:
-  * https://gist.github.com/  100MB Requires member (Free)
-  * https://pastebin.com/     512KB as guest, 10MB as Pro ($$$)
-  * https://hastebin.com/     400KB
-  * https://paste.ee/         1MB as guest, 6MB as member (Free)
-  * https://paste.gg/         15MB
-  * https://mclo.gs/          10 MiB / Anonymous (designed specifically for Minecraft logs)
-Once you submit the paste, you can use the paste URL in the Fabric Discord so others can help you.
-When sharing a large piece of code or a log, you should use a paste site instead of dragging and dropping a file or copy and pasting your logs. Dumping your logs will result in a large embedded codeblock in your message, making it difficult for other people to read previous messages.
-Text files cannot be viewed on Discord for mobile, and Discord for desktop only shows a limited preview of the file. Uploading your logs to a paste site means that volunteers do not need to download your log to view it. Some paste sites also come with syntax highlighting, further saving the time of volunteers.
