- +
-{{:wiki:install_fabric_using_vanilla_launcher_04.jpg?direct|}} +

- +
-[[tutorial:install_with_multimc#step_3install_the_fabric_api|Install the Fabric API]]  +
- +
----- +
-==== NOTES ==== +
- +
-If you don't change the ''GAME DIRECTORY'' the Fabric Installation will share its saved worlds with all the other Installations that have the game directory set to default. It will also share the mods and config folder with other modded Installations you may have that have the game directory set to default, making things an absolute mess. +
- +
-You may set the ''GAME DIRECTORY'' to any folder you want, but it may be a good idea to use a folder inside your user profile for example: +
- +
-''userprofile\minecraft-installations\fabric-1.14.2'' for a MC 1.14.2 Fabric Installation +
- +
-Where ''userprofile'' is the path of the actual location of your userprofile, usually ''C:\Users\yourusername'' +
- +
-Where ''yourusername'' is your actual user name, not the text ''yourusername'', for example ''James'' or ''Anna'' or ''MadMax''.+
