Resource Control
Adds commands to control your resource packs
About this Mod
Resource Control
This mod is designed for server owners and modpack makers. It allows the controlling of a users resource packs through commands.
This mod can:
- Turn on/off a pack
- Rearrange the pack order
- Reload resources on each command, or after multiple have been run
Command usage:
All commands only affect the player running them, but since they don't require admin /execute as [player] run rc <command> can work for admins/datapacks to control other players.
/rc reloadall
Reloads all resources
The following commands end with an optional [reload] parameter.
If not included, will be true. Controls whether the players resources should be reloaded after the command is run.
Alternatively, the changes can take effect next time reloadall is run, or F3+T is used.
/rc activate [packname] [reload]
Activates a resource pack with the filename of [packname].
Zip files will need the .zip specified.
Examples:
/rc activate grass.zip
Activates the resource pack named "grass.zip" (and reloads)
/rc activate "Xray ultimate" false
Activates the resource pack (folder) named "Xray ultimate" (and doesn't reload yet)
/rc deactivate [packname] [reload]
Same as activate but de-activates
/rc moveup [packname] [amount] [reload]
Moves the activated pack with [packname] up the [amount] in the priority list.
Set amount to 0 (or don't specify amount) to go all the way to the top.
/rc movedown [packname] [amount] [reload]
Same as moveup but moves it down in the priority.
Set amount to 0 (or don't specify amount) to go all the way to the bottom.
/rc logpacks
Logs all resource packs found (of the player its run as) to the server console.
(Or the hosts log if on a LAN server)

Resource Control server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric 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 Resource Control compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?
Resource Control officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.1, 1.21, 1.20.1. 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 Resource Control – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Resource Control 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.
