𑁍 TUTORIAL

⚠️ DISCLAIMERS

Your first time loading the modpack will likely be much slower than how it is supposed to be. Do not worry, it just needs to generate caches and then it will launch faster from the next time.
If you use render distances below 4, custom sky resource packs might be glitchy and you may see triangles in the sky. Anything above or equal to 4 should be fine.
WARNING: If you will be using this modpack on hypixel (or other servers where it's not allowed), make sure to remove Perspektive (in versions below 3.0), Freelook (in versions 3.0 and above) and Freecam (in versions 1.5 and above) from the mods folder!

Frequently Asked Questions
Minimalism server crashes or won't start – what to do?
Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong fabric 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.
How much RAM does a Minimalism server really need?
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 Minimalism 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.
Minimalism 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. With Mado Hosting, all servers run on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores – eliminating hardware as a bottleneck.
