Knights and Fire
Immersive medieval-fantasy survival and warfare
About this Modpack
You shipwreck on an unknown coast, and find yourself lost deep within a hostile world. It will require all of your determination and skill to build a shelter and to find and preserve food before the winter. But, wait... what was that glimmer through the trees?
You cautiously move to the edge of the woods, and just a stone throw's away there lies... A DRAGON!
This modpack brings together the fantasy from Ice and Fire: Dragons with the hardcore survival elements of TerraFirmaCraft. With the addition of mods such as Epic Fight, Epic Knights, and When Dungeons Arrise, all of this culminates in creating a challenging and immersive Medieval Fantasy world.
Note that this modpack is in alpha currently, so it is far from well polished. I also plan on switching to Ice and Fire II when it comes out.

Frequently Asked Questions
Knights and Fire 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.

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 Knights and Fire 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.

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.
