Frequently Asked Questions

Item Holograms server crashes on startup – what to do?

Item Holograms officially supports fabric, forge for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.19.4, 1.19.3. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Item Holograms – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Item Holograms consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
