Cuttlepack
Vanilla-friendly expressivity maxxing tech pack for chill SMP
About this Modpack
An opinionated collection of tech mods with a view to making a fun multiplayer experience that allows for creation of complex machines without being a bloated mess or introducing things that make vanilla progress feel obsolete or pointless (so vanilla players can coexist with high-tech players in a friendly SMP).
i.e. 'Bunch of tech mods for fun and QoL'.
Notable tech mods include ComputerCraft, XNet, Create and Project Red Fabrication (build IC circuits with logic gates that accept bundled redstone input).
Notable fun mods include Proximity Voice Chat, Custom emotes and paintings and custom instruments that accept user uploads (3D animation, image files, MIDI files).
(Please note that this is in beta so included mods may change rapidly)

Frequently Asked Questions
Cuttlepack 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 Cuttlepack 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 Cuttlepack 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.
Cuttlepack 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.
