About this Mod

This datapack simply replaces (almost) every hostile mob in the game. It leaves any mob that is necessary to get to the End and beat the game. This datapack was designed for use in a YouTube video, and you can play it for a real challenge. While similar to [https://modrinth.com/datapack/wardens-challenge](Wardens Only) by MCLegoMan and https://youtube.com/@JudgeAlex, this datapack varies slightly in how the wardens are spawned in and handled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Warden Challenge server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong datapack 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 (1.20.6). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Warden Challenge compatible with datapack and fabric and forge and quilt?

Warden Challenge officially supports datapack, fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.6. 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 Warden Challenge – how to optimize performance?

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