About this Modpack
Nvidium Forge is a Forge performance modpack built around Nvidium.
Nvidium swaps Embeddium/Sodium’s renderer for an NVIDIA‑only one that pushes more terrain rendering/culling to the GPU for a big FPS boost (especially at high render distances).
Nvidium is normally a Fabric mod, but this pack makes it work on Forge using Sinytra Connector and Forgified Fabric API (plus Embeddium and a few tweaks).
What this modpack aims to improve:
- Tick stability
- FPS
- Startup time
- Other things like: Faster structure/biome locating speed
Note:
- Nvidium on Forge is still experimental.
- It doesn’t change vanilla gameplay.
- Nvidium only works on supported NVIDIA GPUs.
- If your GPU isn’t supported, Nvidium won’t run (it can disable itself), but removing/disabling it is still recommended for stability.
- Nvidium disables itself when shaders are active.
Issues can be posted in the comments for now. (will make a discord server later)
Feel free to use this as a base in your own modpack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Nvidium Forge 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 Nvidium Forge 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 Nvidium Forge 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.
Nvidium Forge 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.
