A Counter-Strike 2 inspired loot box mod that brings CS2's case opening experience to Minecraft. Open cases with or without keys, view item collections, and receive random items with color-coded rarity tiers.

What This Mod Does

    • White (Common)
    • Light Blue (Uncommon)
    • Blue (Rare)
    • Purple (Epic)
    • Gold (Legendary)
  • 3D Case Preview: Drag the case model to rotate it and inspect it from any angle
  • Progress Screen: A CS2-style animated item reveal with physics-based item scrolling
  • Configuration: All case contents and drop rates are configurable via csgobox.toml
  • CraftTweaker Support: Define custom cases and drops using CraftTweaker scripts

Frequently Asked Questions

CS2box server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong neoforge 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 (1.21.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is CS2box compatible with neoforge?

CS2box officially supports neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with CS2box – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if CS2box 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.
