About this Modpack

Hot on the heels of 0.6 release of Create, now feels like an excellent time to return to Minecraft.

The goal of this pack is to serve as a framework/backdrop for cozy adventures, either with friends or solo. Exploring the wilderness, sailing the seas, camping in the woods - there is plenty of adventure to be had. Create 0.6 is here for the industrious, and multiple decorative and farming mods for those wishing to settle down and live a quiet life. There is also an effort to support light roleplaying aspects, by providing tools and environments that can aide in telling a shared story with friends.

The base mods determining the pack's vibe are as follows:

  • CC: Tweaked
  • Create
  • Farmer's Delight
  • Handcrafted
  • Small Ships
  • Supplementaries
  • Terralith
  • Traveler's Backpack

The following JVM arguements are provided for convenience, and are tuned for 6GB to 12GB of RAM:

-XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:G1NewSizePercent=20 -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=50 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=32M

The initial release has enough in it to set the theme for the rest of the packs development cycle. More content will be added to flesh out this theme, followed by QOL additions, multiplayer enhancements, and performance adjustments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Curiosity server crashes or won't start – what to do?

Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong neoforge 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 Curiosity 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 €12/month).

Can I add custom mods to Curiosity without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (neoforge) 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.

Curiosity 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.
