🤝 contributions
Help expand compatibility by categorizing mods that aren't covered yet:
- submit a pull request — Add missing mods to BuiltInCategories.java.
- notify mod authors — Let them know they can easily assign a category to their mod for native support.
Every contribution helps keep the mod list organized for everyone.
🔗 developer API
Add modCategory to your neoforge.mods.toml block:
[[mods]]
modId = "tidybinds"
displayName = "Tidy Binds"
modCategory = "utility"
This allows your mod to appear in the correct category without requiring users to configure anything. Replace utility with one of the available categories:
| Category | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
agriculture |
Agriculture & Cuisine | Mods with a focus on growing, breeding, cooking, and consuming. |
building |
Building & Decoration | Mods that add blocks with no function other than aesthetics (furniture, roofs, windows). |
equipment |
Equipment & Combat | Mods focused on what the player wears or wields. This includes weapons, armor, and tools. |
functional |
Functional & Mechanics | Mods that add things with specific uses, mechanics or a variety of content across multiple categories without a single defining theme (vanilla+ mods). |
library |
Libraries, APIs & Integrations | Mods for other mods. |
magic |
Magic & Arcane | Mods involve mana, spells, rituals, altars, or nature-based progression systems that do not rely on standard electricity. |
misc |
Miscellaneous | Mods that do not fit into any of the listed categories. |
mobs |
Mobs & Entities | Mods that add or improve living things as their main feature. |
storage |
Storage & Logistics | Mods that increase inventory space or provide static places to put items. |
system |
System, Performance & Fixes | Mods that optimize the game code or fix bugs. |
technology |
Technology & Automation | Mods involve processing resources, generating power (RF/FE), moving fluids/items via pipes, automating tasks, or just redstone. |
utility |
Utilities, UI & QoL | Mods that change how you play the game, usually via the interface, controls, or information, without adding physical blocks/items. |
worldgen |
World Generation & Dimensions | Mods that change the terrain, add new biomes and structures to explore, or add entirely new dimensions. |

Tidy Mods 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 (1.21.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Tidy Mods compatible with neoforge?
Tidy Mods officially supports neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Tidy Mods – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Tidy Mods 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.
