This mod adds nothing on its own, rather, it is required by other mods!
What is RDSLib?
RDSLib is a simple library that adds many systems that are primarily used in RDS mods such as Masterful Mines.
Some examples are:
- A simplified Rarity system in which you can change the style of an item, tab, etc.
- A custom Armor system in which you can apply effects to a player based off the armor type they're wearing
- A fully-fledged custom furnace system with integrations for JEI, EMI, and REI.
There is also a wiki which is a Work in Progress
Adding RDSLib as a dependency
With the release of vX.0.3.0, there is now a maven.
To use the maven, add
maven {
name = "Digitalunderworlds"
url = "https://maven.digitalunderworlds.com/releases"
}
// For SNAPSHOT releases, such as v4.0.3.0-SNAPSHOT-rc3
maven {
name = "Digitalunderworlds Snapshots"
url = "https://maven.digitalunderworlds.com/snapshots"
}
to your repositories block.
Then you can implement "net.realdarkstudios:rdslib:${rdslib_ver}" in your dependencies block.
On your mod page, you might want to use a badge to indicate that RDSLib is needed, so this badge is provided to you:

RDSLib server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong forge 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 (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is RDSLib compatible with forge and neoforge?
RDSLib officially supports forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.20, 1.19.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with RDSLib – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if RDSLib 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.
