About this Modpack

Have you ever wanted to expand the wildlife of Minecraft? Do you want a simple modpack with vanilla-style mobs? Well, then this is the pack for you!

New Animals

New animals can be found in various biomes. Birds can be seen flying overhead in most locations. Jellyfish can be found floating through the oceans. Even lost mobs from the mob votes can be found, such as the Crab, Penguin, or many varieties of Moobloom.

New Monsters

Animals aren't the only new additions. You may now find monsters you've never seen before. Uunused mobs, like the Giant or Illusioner, may now be found in your world. Lost mobs such as the Wildfire or Iceologer lay in wait until you find them and challenge them.

Rare Mobs

Do you like mobs like the Mooshroom or Husk, but struggle to find them? Now these rarer mobs can be found much easier. Sometimes these rarer mobs will replace their more common counterparts, such as a Stray or Bogged replacing a Skeleton or a Cave Spider replacing a regular Spider. Other mobs like Zomibe Horses or Skeleton Horses may also be found, as Zombies and Skeletons spawn with a chance to be riding one respectively.

Mob Changes

Many mobs have their behaviors changed to be more interesting. Many monsters may act more intelligently, making them harder to deal with. Fish can be seen swimming in large schools, flowing at high speeds with the ocean currents. Bees may now be found in larger groups, simulating a more realistic hive. You can even find bats on the surface now, as they venture out into the world when the sun sets.

Mob Variety

Mobs can seem a bit boring, as most have only one form they can be found in, so now most can be found with more variety. As stated before, many monsters now have harder and more complex variants that can be found, as well as their existing variants being more common. Alongside this, most mobs can now be found in various sizes. You may come across a group of pigs where one is much larger than the rest and another may be much smaller. Baby animals are also changed to look more unique and arguably much cuter as well.

Biomes

New biomes can be found around the world, giving a home to many of these new mobs. You can find Oasises, Cypress Wetlands, Warm Beaches, Birch Jungles, Temperate Rainforests, and much more. With these new biomes, you may also find new tree types, such as Cypress, Palm, and Maple, each of which offer new wood types to build with.

Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong fabric 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 Expanded Wildlife 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 Expanded Wildlife 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.

Expanded Wildlife 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.
