Q&A
Q: Quilt?
A: Just use the fabric version
Q: Will you backport fabric to below/above 1.20.1 and 1.20.4? Or forge below/above 1.19.2?
A: No. Porting versions is buggy, annoying and generally unenjoyable. Modding is my passion project. If i dont enjoy modding, i won't mod. The only exception is most likely Forge 1.19.4
Q: Can i use this in my modpack?
A: Sure, You can give credit if you want, but i won't enforce it.

Runestones server crashes on startup – what to do?

Is Runestones compatible with fabric and forge?
Runestones officially supports fabric, forge for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.3, 1.20.2. 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 Runestones – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Runestones 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.
