About this Modpack
WARNING!
This Project is abandoned as i'm working on something new
Cooking Potato is an optimization modpack even able to work as an Optifine substitute, most of the features on that are available but some of them still need to wait but probably you should be happy with the available ones, for what i tested the result was that maybe can do more than other packs, but not always and can depend from situation to situation when maybe others can do slightly more
GTX 1650 Super
Intel Core i5-8500
16GB RAM
1.0 Test on SinglePlayer World
1.0 Test on Hypixel
Remember: This is not going always to work like to me as not all of the PCs are the same, so if for you this pack works bad, don't use it or maybe if you have time try to change some settings to make it feel more smooth, default settings try to mantain perfomance but at the same time a good appearence to the game
I'm working on a way to make you report bugs, stay tuned!

Frequently Asked Questions
Cooking Potato 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 Cooking Potato 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 €8/month).
Can I add custom mods to Cooking Potato without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.21.1). 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.
Cooking Potato 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.
