Winter Zombies
The Mustard Virus has gone global and wiped out humanity. In cooler climates, the virus has become immune to the cold. You on the other hand are still vulnerable to these harsh conditions. Will frostbite get you first, or will you succumb to the virus?

About this Modpack
Winter Zombies by Forge Labs

Much like the original Mustard Virus, the infected are attracted to light, sound, and players. They are immune to the effects of sunlight, and they will stop at nothing to get you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Winter Zombies server crashes or won't start – what to do?
Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong forge loader. Check latest.log for "OutOfMemoryError" → increase RAM to at least 8 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 Winter Zombies server really need?
Minimum 6 GB, recommended 8 GB for stable performance. per 5 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 €7.800000000000001/month).
Can I add custom mods to Winter Zombies without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (forge) and same Minecraft version (1.12.2). 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.
Winter Zombies server lagging – performance tips
1) Increase RAM to 8 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.
