Convert .mrpack to CurseForge Format

Free PackShift tool • Import Modrinth modpacks into CurseForge

CurseForge does not natively open .mrpack files — it expects standard Minecraft ZIP archives or manual folder structures. PackShift bridges that gap: convert your Modrinth .mrpack to a playable ZIP, then import it into CurseForge.

No Native .mrpack Support

CurseForge works with ZIP-based modpacks, not Modrinth's manifest format.

ZIP as Intermediate

Convert .mrpack to ZIP with PackShift, then import the ZIP into CurseForge.

All Mods Preserved

Mods are downloaded from Modrinth CDN and packaged into the ZIP.

FAQs

Does CurseForge support .mrpack files?

No. CurseForge expects standard Minecraft ZIP archives or folder structures. You must convert your .mrpack to ZIP first using PackShift, then import.

What's the difference between .mrpack and CurseForge format?

.mrpack is Modrinth's distribution format — a ZIP containing a modrinth.index.json manifest plus override files. CurseForge uses its own ZIP structure with mods in a mods/ folder and configs at the root. PackShift normalizes the .mrpack into that structure.

Will my mods transfer when converting from Modrinth to CurseForge?

Yes. PackShift downloads all mod JAR files directly from Modrinth's CDN and places them in the ZIP's mods/ directory, so your CurseForge instance has every mod.

Is this tool free?

Yes. PackShift is 100% free, open-source, and runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server.
