About this Modpack
A vanilla server-compatible modpack with optimisation, QoL, and immersion. For further performance on low end computers, disable the physics mod, tweak the shader settings or turn them off with K.
This modpack is what I use when playing on vanilla servers, with some preset options, that I feel is good enough to share. However, you aren't playing on my computer, so you may want to double check the Minecraft settings or reset the shaderpack settings and tweak them yourself. Resourceify is added to make installing shaders and resourcepacks easy, in case there's stuff you want or you just want to browse.
ℹ️ In some versions some things were a bit annoying, like a skin collection mod that kept my settings and set your skin to whatever it was at the time I made it, or tutorial popups still appearing, these have been removed in newer versions, apologies if anyone was affected.
For a complete list of mods, check the Versions tab. The major features are:

⚠️ The gender mod was made for 1.20.2 and it unfortunately crashes when clicking Appearance settings. To configure size, seperation, rotation, height and depth, you'll need to edit the JSON file in
/config/WildfireGenderafter starting the game, or copy and paste it from another instance where it worked. Sorry about that!

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 Magpie's Shiny Client without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.21). 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.
Magpie's Shiny Client 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.
