About this Modpack

A pond in a grassy field header image.

Stilled TFC is a modpack built around TerraFirmaCraft that makes the world more beautiful.
You'll see waves upon the beaches, hear winds in the grasses, and see land as far as the horizon of the Earth. It does all this while maintaining a high FPS. I've worked hard to make this modpack as cohesive as possible while being as performant as possible.

For the best experience, I'd recommend allocating between 4gb and 6gb of ram and using Eclipse Temurin 25 with -XX:+UseZGC -XX:+UseCompactObjectHeaders JVM arguments. See here for more detailed information on which JVM arguments to use and what they do!

Low Frame Rate?

You could try disabling either Distant Horizons, Better Clouds, or both.

  • To disable Distant Horizons, from the Main Menu or Pause Menu go to Options...
    Within Options... click on the Distant Horizons button to the top left. Set both Enable Rendering and Enable Distant Generation to False.

    • To re-enable vanilla fog, proceed down Advanced options then to Graphics. Here set Enable Distant Horizons Fog to False and Enable Vanilla Fog to True.
  • To disable Better Clouds, from the Main Menu or Pause Menu go to Mods
    Search or scroll to the Better Clouds mod, then click on Config. Click on the Enabled button at the top of the config screen to change Better Clouds to Vanilla.

Pssst, don't have Prism Launcher or the Modrinth App but still like the look of this? You can click the link below to convert the most recent version of this modpack to a .zip containing all the modpack's resources. This conversion is done locally, so be patient.

With these resources you're able to import Stilled TFC into any launcher! I've made guides for the CurseForge app and the Minecraft Launcher below.

Modpack Converter: .mrpack to .zip

Importing into the CurseForge app

Begin by opening the CurseForge app, once opened click on the + Create button to start a new modpack.

  1. Fill out the data like so:
    Modpack Name: Stilled TFC
    Minecraft Version: 1.21.1
    Game Type: NeoForge
    Modloader Version: [Select the most recent version]

  2. Once the modpack has finished setting up, navigate to the modpack folder:
    From within the modpack click on the three dots next to Play then head to Open Folder ↗
    If instead on the main page, first right click on the modpack then head to Open Folder ↗

  3. Bring over the .zip containing all of Stilled TFC now. To finish off the modpack import you will need to extract the .zip in the modpack directory. Make certain the contents are extracted directly into the modpack directory! If you get a folder containing all the files, move those files into the modpack directory.

You're fine to delete the zip after completing these steps. To update the modpack in the future, delete the mods, resourcepacks, datapacks, and config folder before repeating step 3.

Importing into the Minecraft Launcher
  1. Download the NeoForged Installer, select 1.21.1 as the Minecraft Version and use the latest NeoForged Version. I'd suggest following the entire installation section of the NeoForged docs.

  2. Now that you have NeoForged installed on the Minecraft Launcher and have decided on whether to make a separate profile or not, navigate to that profile directory.
    (What the NeoForged docs and I refer to as profiles are labeled Installations within the Minecraft Launcher. Me referring to them as Installations would lead to confusion however)

  3. Bring over the .zip containing all of Stilled TFC. To finish off the modpack import you will need to extract the .zip in the modpack directory. Make certain the contents are extracted directly into the modpack directory! If you get a folder containing all the files, move those files into the modpack directory.

You're fine to delete the zip after completing these steps. To update the modpack in the future, delete the mods, resourcepacks, datapacks, and config folder before repeating step 3.

Frequently Asked Questions

Stilled TFC server crashes or won't start – what to do?

Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong neoforge loader. Check latest.log for "OutOfMemoryError" → increase RAM to at least 8 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 Stilled TFC server really need?

Minimum 6 GB, recommended 8 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 €12/month).

Can I add custom mods to Stilled TFC without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (neoforge) 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.

Stilled TFC server lagging – performance tips

1) Increase RAM to 8 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.
