About this Mod

Are you faster than a speeding bullet, mine stronger than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound? Is it really annoying! The Speed Cap is here to help.

The Speed Cap is a special helmet that "caps your speed" when worn. When you're moving too fast, the Speed Cap's sail extends, slowing you down to a more manageable pace.

The Speedcap in action when a high speed player puts it on and slows down.

The Speed Cap also has options to cap your mining Speed, to cut down on accidental instamining of too many blocks.

The Cap is highly customizable. Shift clicking with the item in hand opens a menu for changing max movement and mining speeds (in Blocks/Second) and assorted variations of its functions. The Cap's functions can also be enabled/disabled on the fly via keybinds.

The Cap can also be colored to your liking by crafting it with colored carpet or using dye on it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Speed Cap 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 (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Speed Cap compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?

Speed Cap officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1. 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 Speed Cap – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Speed Cap 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.
