Step by step guide

Step 1: Get the launcher
First, you need to get the launcher installer from the Curseforge website by following this link.
Select your OS and download the installer executable.
After you download the installer, execute it to start the installation and follow the installer instructions.
Step 2: Create a new launcher profile
After the installation is done, launch the Curseforge launcher. You will see an empty page inviting you to create a new game profile.
Click the "Create custom profile" button.
Be careful! When creating a game profile make sure to use the same Minecraft version as you can find on the mod page.
In my case, the Minecraft version is 1.20.1 and the mod loader is Fabric:
And I specify the same values in the launcher profile settings:
After specifying the versions put some meaningful name for the launcher profile and hit "Create".
Step 3: Add the mod
After your new profile is created you will see it on the main screen. Click on the profile picture to open the profile.
Inside the profile click on three dots in the upper right corner and then "Add more content".
The search will appear. Search for "MineFortress" there. Make sure to search in the Mods section.
Click on the "Install" button to install the mod. After the mod is installed close the search window. Your profile should look like this.
Step 4: Run the game
At this point, installation is done. Run the game by clicking the "Play" button in the profile. If you run Minecraft for the first time you may have to log in to the Minecraft launcher. After login, you will see the play button.
When running the game for the first time, the Minecraft launcher will ask you if you want to proceed. Check the checkbox and click "Play".
Step 5: Check the mod
To make sure that the mod is installed go to Singleplayer > Create new world. The "Fortress" gamemode should be selected as default gamemode.
That's it! You are done! Hope you will enjoy the mod!
