Forkpack
A modpack that adds the create mod and performance enhancement mods
About this Modpack
Mods Included
Forkpack is a modpack which adds a few mods built around Create. But, to keep the game running well, Forkpack also adds preformace improvement mods to make sure the game is running smoothly.
Preformance
IMPORTANT: Preventing Lag Spikes
To keep lag spikes to a minimum, a Custom Java Argument can be added, the process is different for each launcher:
- Modrinth Launcher: Instance Settings > Java and memory > Java arguments
- Prism Launcher: Edit instance > Settings > Java > Java arguments
Click the "Java Arguments" box and paste this in the text field below:
-XX:+UseZGC
This will make Java use the ZGC garbage collector, which is less prone to lag spikes.
The popular Sodium and Lithium mods are used to improve preformance in this modpack. Vannila Minecraft struggles to keep a good framerate because of lag spikes, memory issues, game logic issues, and rendering bugs. Meanwhile, even with some mods that add preformance overhead, Sodium and Lithuim are able to keep this modpack running well, because of opimiztions of the games code.

*All of these have Distant Horizons enabled and set to "medium" settings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Forkpack 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 Forkpack 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 Forkpack 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.
Forkpack 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.
