3. Clone the modpack of your choice into an empty folder.

# Enigmatica 8
git clone https://github.com/EnigmaticaModpacks/Enigmatica8

# Enigmatica 9

```

1. Open the `automation` folder.
2. Run the script `InstanceSyncSetup`
3. Run the script `update-server`
4. Start the server using the script `start-automated-server` found in the instance root.

Re-run the script `update-server` whenever you want to update to a new modpack version.

**Notes**

* Using the `update-server` script will reset changes you've made to tracked files.
* The world and mods folders are backed up by the update-server script.
* Anything put in the `overrides` folder will be copied into the root folder when the `update-server` script is finished. We recommend you put any changed configs and added mods there.
* Whenever you run `update-server`, the `settings.cfg` is reset to the latest default to get the latest Forge version.
