Vanilla BOB
An optimized and balanced vanilla survival experience by Kriiox
About this Modpack
Vanilla BOB is a client-side, vanilla-oriented survival modpack built to keep Minecraft’s core experience intact while making it smoother, clearer, and more comfortable to play.
It focuses on the best performance mods available (higher FPS, less stutter), paired with carefully chosen quality-of-life and builder/technical tools that don’t ruin vanilla progression or balance.
Performance note: shaders and voxy can be demanding. If you play on a low-end PC, consider disabling shaders (Iris) and/or disabling voxy for the best experience.
- 🚀 Top-tier optimization for a fluid, responsive vanilla survival experience.
- 🧭 Vanilla-friendly QoL: better UI, better tooltips, smoother interactions, small visual improvements.
- 🗺️ Navigation: minimap + full world map for easier exploration.
- 🧱 Builder & technical tools: schematics, overlays, freecam and editing utilities for ambitious projects.
- 🎧 More immersive audio with improved sound physics and control.
- ✨ Optional graphics upgrade with shaders (can be disabled anytime).
- Low-end PCs: disable shaders and consider disabling voxy.
- If you still get stutters, try lowering render distance and keeping simulation distance reasonable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Vanilla BOB 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 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 Vanilla BOB 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 Vanilla BOB without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.21.11). 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.
Vanilla BOB 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.
