About this Modpack
Welcome to VanillaQOL
The purpose of this modpack:
I wanted to make a simple modpack to easily download my favourite optimizations and quality of life changing mods, texturepacks/shaders.
Included shaders and texturepacks:
- Complementary Reimagined
- Default Dark Mode
- Using Resourcify you can browse/add/update texturepacks and shaders ingame!
If you have issues starting the game:
- Make sure to disable RTSS (RivaTuner Statistics Server) to make this modpack work (Sodium issue).
- Update drivers (especially GPU)
Additional mods that can be useful:
- Mouse Tweaks - Slightly better mouse usability
- Controlify - Adds controller support
- Controlling - Keybinds stuff

Frequently Asked Questions
VanillaQOL 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 VanillaQOL 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 VanillaQOL without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (fabric) and same Minecraft version (1.21). 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.
VanillaQOL 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.
