About this Modpack

A modpack built to make Minecraft run at its best.

Out of the 32 mods installed, 29 of them are optimization mods.

All of Cranked's mods are client-side, so you can use it on any server.

Will be updated to the latest Minecraft version when possible.

Comes with Controlify, so the modpack is fully playable with no setup on a Steam Deck.

The screenshots below show the difference between Vanilla and Cranked Minecraft. Switching to Cranked resulted in a 334.78% increase in framerate.

(*) Screenshots of the frametime graph had weird dimensions because of how big the difference was, so they're in the gallery.

Mileage will vary, with lower-end computers getting better performance and higher FPS (better computers will still benefit greatly, just maybe not 334.78%)

Frequently Asked Questions

Cranked 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 Cranked 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 Cranked without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.20.4). 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.

Cranked 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.
