About this Modpack

Welcome to Minebox. We have Technology, Tornados, Tquality of Life, and most importantly, Trains!

Note: This modpack is intended for a private server, though it is fine to use it without the server.

notable features

Technology

With Create, anything is possible! With only a few cogs you won't even have to play the game anymore! Until the game destroys it, that is.

Trains

A couple addons to Create (Steam 'n' Rails, Bells & Whistles, Interiors, Train Perspective) give the trains a more complete feel and generally further their use for player transport in particular (though the nether will always be faster).

A train with three cars (one for the driver, one for storage, and one for the parrot) stopped precariously ahead of flooded tracks, guided by a signal using Steam 'n' Rails' Semaphore.

Tornados

Have you ever wanted the game to throw a tornado and base and just outright wreck the place? How about two?! Or maybe even three! With the Weather2 mod, who knows how many tornados you'll have in your base. Just remember to make extra doors.

Quality of Life mods

We added some mods (like Xaero's Minimap and World Map, various Curios mods to add more slots, Roughly Enough Items, and more!) for QoL.

Resource packs

The primary resource pack in use is Vanilla Experience+, along with Eclectic Trove (Legendary Tooltips) and Enchant Icons.

How to Set Up a Minebox Server

Order Server

Choose at least 6 GB RAM (8 GB recommended for Minebox). Based on player count: per 5 players.

Install Modpack in Dashboard

Open the modpack browser in the dashboard, search for "Minebox" and click "Install". The forge loader and Minecraft 1.20.1 are configured automatically.

Start Server & Play

Start the server – all mods are loaded automatically. Share the server IP with friends and play together!

Frequently Asked Questions

Minebox 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 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 Minebox 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 Minebox 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.

Minebox 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.
