About this Modpack

ecco's BetterMC: Bottled fresh since 2024!

...but why?

I've always wanted a vanilla+ style modpack that tries its best to constantly be on the bleeding edge of Minecraft updates, so this is my attempt at making that desire a reality. This is a curated pack of mods that I personally use and enjoy, and as such will follow no stable update cadence; I'll update things when I get around to it / when new major versions of things are available.

Versions equal to or newer than 0.7 are incompatible with worlds made in 0.6 or older! Version incompatibility is a problem I hope to remedy in the near future. If you don't mind some trial and error, dive in and have fun!

Full Mod List (0.7.0)
Mods I'd like to add

This is a list of mods that I plan on adding when/if a 1.21.1 compatible version is released.

Important!

  • Allocate 8GB of memory or more for best results. Less than 8GB may result in "out of memory" crashes.
  • Use JRE (Java Runtime Environment) Version 22. I recommend version 21.0.1 (or newer if available). This can be obtained at Adoptium.net. Be sure to install the JRE, not the JDK. Select your Operating System, download the installer for your OS, and run the downloaded file to install it. Please refer to your launcher's help resources to ensure you are using the correct version of the JRE.
  • Working builds will be marked as either Release or Beta, and broken builds will be marked as Alpha. I'm not perfect, and this is a very amateur project.
  • If there is enough interest, I'd be down to start up a Discord server for update notifications and troubleshooting. If this is of any interest to you, please send me a direct message request; my username is .ecco.

Frequently Asked Questions

ecco's BetterMC 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 ecco's BetterMC 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 ecco's BetterMC 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.

ecco's BetterMC 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.
