About this Modpack

A Quilt kitchen sink pack with a focus on magic and fantasy mods. In fact, you could call it a kitchen cauldron pack. No, it's not that clever? Oh okay. 😞 But that's why cauldron is in the name. Why is amethyst in the name? Well, several of the mods make heavy use of amethyst. Also it sounds magical and I like the colour purple.
The pack is very light on tech mods (with only Create being included) but has quite a few magic mods, including Botania, Malum, Bewitchment, Spectrum, Origins (with Classes and Medieval Origins), Hex Casting, Arcanus, Archon, Conjuring, Magehand, Mythic Mounts, Spelunker, XP Obelisk, Things, Trinkets, and Waystones. There are also several mods that add new/improved structures and dungeons, and along with Oh The Biomes You'll Go, there's no shortage of exploration to be done. Rounding out the pack are plenty of decoration, QoL, and visual improvement mods.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Amethyst Cauldron server crashes or won't start – what to do?
Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong quilt 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.

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 €12/month).
Can I add custom mods to The Amethyst Cauldron without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (quilt) and same Minecraft version (1.18.2). 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.
The Amethyst Cauldron 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. With Mado Hosting, all servers run on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores – eliminating hardware as a bottleneck.
