Refined Storage runs on a modloader, supporting NeoForge and Fabric.

Installing it follows the same process as any other NeoForge or Fabric mod.

Setting up NeoForge or Fabric

You’ll need a working NeoForge or Fabric instance. Launchers like MultiMC or the vanilla launcher can set this up.

Downloading the mod

Download a Refined Storage .jar file for your Minecraft version and modloader from official sources:

Installing the mod

Place the downloaded .jar file in your instance’s mods/ directory. If the folder doesn’t exist, start your instance once to let the modloader create it.

Using the CurseForge App (and other launchers)

Most launchers, including the CurseForge App, allow one-click installation without manually copying .jar files.

Configuring the mod

Configuration isn’t required in most cases, but you can adjust settings in the config/ directory:

  • NeoForge: config/refinedstorage-common.toml

  • Fabric: config/refinedstorage.toml

Optional dependencies

Refined Storage works on its own, but some additional mods improve the experience.

Integration with recipe viewers

These mods help view recipes for items and blocks:

Energy generation

Storage networks require energy. Install a mod that generates energy or customize your modpack to allow creative energy options provided by Refined Storage.
