About Arte
So, what does it do? Simple! Let's say you have a BIG server resource pack.
Every time you make a little change, you will have to manually re-host it somewhere, and players will have to fully re-download it.
This can get annoying. Arte splits the resource pack into parts (by namespaces), hosts it directly on your server
and sends each one as a different server resource pack!
Q: How is this possible? There can only be one server resource pack loaded at one time!
A: In 1.20.3 Mojang added a new feature that allows servers to send multiple server resource packs at a time!
Players will only re-download the parts that actually need updating, and apply other server packs.

Arte server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong bukkit version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Arte officially supports bukkit, fabric, paper, purpur, quilt, spigot for Minecraft 1.21.4, 1.21.3, 1.21.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Arte – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Arte consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
