How to create a Content instance

Creating a New Content Instance

To create a new Content instance, you'll need the following:

1. Content Release: A .zip file containing all the necessary files for this instance, including mods, configuration files, and more.
2. Content JSON: A JSON file containing all the information related to this Content instance.

INFO

Important: Both the .zip file and the JSON file must be publicly accessible via a direct link. Ensure that these files are hosted on a publicly accessible server. Free alternatives will be shown.
