Through extensive research and testing, SmoothCraft consistently outperforms many other optimization solutions, making it a top choice for players seeking a seamless experience.
SmoothCraft prioritizes maintainability and simplicity, which means it does not include unnecessary quality-of-life or visual enhancements by default. Players are encouraged to add any additional mods they desire to customize their experience.

SmoothCraft 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.

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 SmoothCraft 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.
SmoothCraft server lagging – performance tips
