VWNAO
❔ About
"Vanilla was never an option" (VWNAO) is meant to be a complete but simple modpack, whether for your two weeks Minecraft addiction or just your everyday usage. It consists of dozens of small QoL & optimization mods combined all together to optimise your gameplay and make it more enjoyable, comfortable to use. I initially made this modpack for some friends but as they seemed to like it, I've decided to release it here so that everyone can enjoy it!

Frequently Asked Questions
VWNAO server crashes or won't start – what to do?
Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong quilt 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 VWNAO 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 VWNAO without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (quilt) and same Minecraft version (1.19.4). 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.
VWNAO 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.
