About this Modpack
Introducing Ember Optimizations
Ember Optimizations is a Forge modpack for Minecraft 1.20.1 built for one purpose — to make the game run the way it should. Whether you're on a budget laptop or a high-end rig, Ember delivers a smoother, more responsive experience without stripping away what makes Minecraft feel like Minecraft.
From the Creators of Prism Optimized
Ember Optimizations is made by me (SodaPlays). I am the person behind Prism Optimized. This modpack was built from the ground up for Forge. If you've used Prism before, you'll feel right at home. Same philosophy, same attention to detail, different loader.
Performance & Stability
At its core, Ember is built around a carefully selected set of optimization mods, all configured to work together rather than against each other. From chunk loading to entity rendering, every system has been tuned to reduce stutters, lower memory usage, and push frame rates as high as your hardware allows.
OptiFine Feature Support
Leaving OptiFine behind doesn't mean leaving your resource packs behind. Ember includes ETF (Entity Texture Features), EMF (Entity Model Features), and Continuity, covering the vast majority of OptiFine-dependent features, including custom entity textures, model overrides, and connected textures. For most packs, you can drop them straight in, and they'll just work.
Shader Support
Ember ships with Oculus, bringing full shader support to Forge. Whether you want to play vanilla or completely transform the look of the game with shaders, both are supported out of the box.
What's Included
General Mods
- Embeddium + FerriteCore + ModernFix for core performance gains
- Entity Culling + ImmediatelyFast for rendering efficiency
- Concurrent Chunk Management Engine for smooth chunk loading at any render distance
- ETF, EMF, Continuity, and OptiGUI for OptiFine resource pack compatibility
- Oculus for shader support
- And more — all pre-configured and ready to go

Frequently Asked Questions
Ember Optimizations server crashes or won't start – what to do?
Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong forge 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 Ember Optimizations server really need?
Minimum 4 GB, recommended 6 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 €8/month).
Can I add custom mods to Ember Optimizations without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (forge) and same Minecraft version (1.20.1). 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.
Ember Optimizations 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.
