About this Modpack

What started as a small project for friends quickly grew into something more – a passion project aimed at perfecting the vanilla experience. If you love this modpack, share it with your friends too (:

The SimplyVanilla title... that's really it

Simply Enhanced; Purely Vanilla. As intended

Tons of Features

SimplyVanilla has as many QoL features as you need, while still feeling like they should be in the vanilla game.

HUGE Focus on immersion

With multiple mods, such as ambient sounds and subtle effects, it immerses you in the world you're playing on

Client side

Even with the teeming amount of additions, you can still play on serves or with those that don't use SimplyVanilla [LAN does break tho]

Semi-frequent updates

As a solo person in this project, I try to keep up to date with official game and mod updates.

Frequently Asked (noobie) Questions

Q: Where the heck is Iris Shaders?
A: Iris shaders (along with other mods) are GONE. SimplyVanilla aims to upgrade the vanilla graphics, and shaders breaks some mods/resource packs

Q: How do I enable/disable mods?

A: Currently, there is no way to report issues as of now :(

Q: I like this modpack. What can I do to support you?
A: Don't support me, support the developers who sacrificed their time to make these great mods in this modpack. Although credit for if you mention it in a gameplay video would be apreciated for me :)

Q: I want my mod/resource pack to be part of SimplyVanilla
A: I am actively looking for hidden gems with few downloads. If you have a project you would like to see added, contact me on Discord (@DiskVreaker)

How to Set Up a SimplyVanilla Server

Install Modpack in Dashboard

Open the modpack browser in the dashboard, search for "SimplyVanilla" and click "Install". The fabric loader and Minecraft 26.1.2 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

SimplyVanilla 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 SimplyVanilla 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 SimplyVanilla without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (26.1.2). 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.

SimplyVanilla 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.
