Mod Soup
A (not so) minimal kitchen sink pack
About this Modpack
Mod Soup is a personal modpack for me and my friends, stored here for safekeeping. Feel free to use it, but don’t expect support—things will break, and every update will probably ruins your world.
Includes:
- Industrial revolution
- Magic flowers
- funny magic color mod
- Computer Science (magic and computer flavour)
- gross biology
- cool looking caves
- cool looking mobs
- a slightly better world
- And whatever else got added on a whim.
Good luck.

Frequently Asked Questions
Mod Soup 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.
How much RAM does a Mod Soup server really need?
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 Mod Soup 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.
Mod Soup 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.
