About this Modpack

Vanilla Protocol is a client-side Fabric modpack built from my personal Minecraft setup, focused on improving performance, visuals, and usability while keeping gameplay completely vanilla. The pack does not add new content or change mechanics, and it remains fully compatible with vanilla servers.

It includes modern optimisation mods such as Sodium, Lithium, FerriteCore, ImmediatelyFast, and Bobby to improve FPS and reduce stutter, along with Iris, Better Clouds, Continuity, and dynamic lighting to enhance visuals without changing the core look of the game.

For usability and quality of life, the pack adds tools like Jade, AppleSkin, Mouse Tweaks, inventory sorting, zoom, minimap and world map, status bars, and GUI improvements, making everyday gameplay smoother and more informative. Builder-focused utilities such as Litematica and Axiom are also included for planning and large-scale construction.

This modpack is intended for players who want Minecraft to run smoother, look cleaner, and feel more convenient to play, while still remaining true to the original vanilla experience and compatible with standard multiplayer servers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Vanilla Protocol 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 Vanilla Protocol 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 Vanilla Protocol without conflicts?

Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.21.10). 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 Protocol 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.
