About this Mod
NovaCore is a library mod for creating NeoForge mods. It contains common classes for creating blocks, items, etc., and data generation classes.
Why use a library mod?
Using a library mod removes a lot of boilerplate code required to get things up and running. This allows you to focus on what matters most and not spend a lot of time writing code that is required by the framework you choose.
Planned Features
- Better support for NeoForge
- Eventually become framework agnostic and supports both NeoForge and Fabric.
- Create NovaCore-API (Contains framework agnostic code for your mod)
- Create NovaCore-NeoForge (Contains everything needed to bootstrap NeoForge mods)
- Create NovaCore-Fabric (Contains everything needed to bootstrap NeoForge mods)

NovaCore 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 (1.21.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is NovaCore compatible with neoforge?
NovaCore officially supports neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.4, 1.21, 1.20.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with NovaCore – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if NovaCore 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.
