Description
Trials Expanded is a Minecraft mod that allows trial vaults and spawners to be mined and crafted.
This mod adds new crafting recipes for (non-ominous) vaults and spawners, as well as a smithing template for upgrading vaults to ominous vaults.
Additionally, the vault upgrade smithing template can be found as loot in Vaults and Ominous Vaults with Ominous Vaults having a higher chance to drop it.
This vault upgrade smithing template can be copied like any other smithing template.

Trials Expanded 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.

Server lagging with Trials Expanded – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Trials Expanded 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.
