About this Modpack
THIS MODPACK IS NO LONGER RECEIVING CONTENT UPDATES. PATCHES MAY BE PUSHED OUT AS NEEDED.
Hi! This was my first TRUE modpack, I made this when I was first figuring out packdev and didn't know what I wanted to do with it. I've felt this way for a while, but I don't particularly find it fun to work on this pack anymore, I want to do other things! So, I'm archiving this. As I said this pack will receive no new content updates, but I may occasionally push out bug fixes as needed. I know what I want to do with modding now, so just give it some time! Thank you for understanding, and thanks for supporting me and this project! - Ivory, August 11th 2026
I have compiled the most vanilla friendly, performance enhancing, QOL mods for the PERFECT relaxing, slow paced, and balanced playthrough. With mods like Bountiful Fares, Enchancement, Supplementaries (obviously) and Geophilic, this pack expands on each aspect of the game to make them equally enjoyable, allowing you to choose your own way to play and have fun whilst doing so.
Some other features include:
Ability to play with friends WITHOUT a server. Overhauled sound effects. Hundreds of new textures for mods and vanilla. Overhauled enchanting table and system. Custom dark mode GUI and a custom font. All of the outvoted mobs from most of the mob votes. Overhauled death sytem, with new messages, gravestone-like "Soul Keepers", death screen and sound effects. 40+ new food and drinks items from the Farmer's Delight & Brewin' and Chewin'. Better Minecarts!!! Built-in Performance Enhancing Shaders ( VanillAA ). overhauled mob variants. Various new uses of copper like tools and pistons. Tons of new decorations like chairs, tables, and desks. New immersive music. Tons of new dungeons and structures to explore. New balancing changes, like copper, elytras, shulker boxes, and coordinates changes. And overhauled vanilla biomes.
This modpack also prioritizes performance and configurability. With optimization mods like Sodium, Lithium, Starlight, and C2ME, this modpack can run on most low end computers. (I know from experience) Not to mention the hyper customization options through the mods menu, you can configure almost any mod you want.

Enjoy, and remember that quantity does not equal quality!
This modpack was heavily inspired by the Raspberry Flavoured modpack by Raspmary, you can find it on Curseforge.
Big thanks to Raspmary and Noelle for help with KubeJS scripts and textures.

Frequently Asked Questions
Melatonin server crashes or won't start – what to do?
Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong fabric loader. Check latest.log for "OutOfMemoryError" → increase RAM to at least 6 GB. For "Mixin" or "ClassNotFoundException" errors: modpack version and loader don't match. With Mado Hosting, loader and Minecraft version are auto-configured on modpack install – preventing most startup issues.
How much RAM does a Melatonin server really need?
Minimum 4 GB, recommended 6 GB for stable performance. per 8 players. Important: Minecraft modpacks need more RAM than vanilla – plan extra per additional player. With Mado Hosting, you can scale RAM up live at any time without data loss (from €5.2/month).
Can I add custom mods to Melatonin without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.20.1). Common issues: ID conflicts with recipe mods and incompatible coremod versions. The Mado dashboard mod browser only shows compatible mods and warns about known conflicts.
Melatonin server lagging – performance tips
1) Increase RAM to 6 GB+. 2) Reduce server view-distance to 8 (server.properties). 3) Pre-generate chunks with the "Chunky" plugin. 4) Use /spark profiler to check which mods consume the most tick time. With Mado Hosting, all servers run on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores – eliminating hardware as a bottleneck.
