Modpack hosting questions

How much RAM does a modpack server need?

Light packs (Cobblemon, most Fabric performance packs) run well on 4GB. Mid-size kitchen-sink packs (Better MC, Prominence II) want 6GB. Heavy 300+ mod packs (All the Mods 10, RLCraft, GregTech lines) need 8GB or more, especially past 5-10 players. You can add RAM at $1/GB anytime with no downtime, so it is safe to start at 4GB and scale up if the console reports lag.

Do I have to install the mods myself?

No. Pick a pack and FadeHost installs every mod, library, config and datapack, and selects the correct mod loader and Minecraft version automatically. Your first server is created with the pack already applied.

Which mod loaders and versions do you support?

Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across every Minecraft version each pack ships for. The panel picks the loader and version the pack requires; you can also change versions or builds yourself later.

Can I add or remove mods after the pack is installed?

Yes. You get full SFTP and a file manager, so you can drop extra mods into the mods folder, tweak configs, or remove mods you do not want. Client-side-only mods that crash a server can be removed the same way.

How do my players join a modded server?

Players install the same pack in their launcher (Modrinth App, CurseForge or Prism), then connect to your server address. The server and client must run the same pack version. The address and version are shown in your panel.

Is there a free trial for modpack hosting?

Yes. Seven days, no credit card, and a signup that carries a pack gets 8 GB rather than the 4 GB a plain signup gets, because most packs run out of memory below that. Start a server, install a pack and invite players before paying anything.

Can I switch to a different modpack later?

Yes. Create additional servers for other packs (RAM is shared across your servers), or reinstall a different pack on an existing server. Back up your world first if you want to keep it.

What does a modpack server cost here?

The base slot is $2.50 a month and carries 1 GB; every gigabyte after it is $1. So 6 GB is $7.50 a month and 8 GB is $9.50. RAM is one pool shared across all your servers, and it moves up or down by the gigabyte at any time without a reinstall.

Where do the RAM recommendations come from?

Where enough servers here run a pack, from what those servers actually use: memory measured over the last 30 days and split by how many players were online. Where we do not have that, the pack page estimates from the size of the official server pack, the pack's own tags and its loader and version, and says which of the two it is doing. A few packs also have a floor we will not install below because they run out of memory underneath it: All the Mods 9 and All the Mods 10 start at 12 GB.

What if the pack I want is not listed?

Set the loader and Minecraft version under Server Software, then upload the pack's server pack in Files and unzip it, or send it over SFTP. The mods, config and any kubejs or defaultconfigs folders go in the server folder. Remove shaders and other client-only mods if the author shipped them, then start and watch the console.

Why does the first boot take so long?

The first start registers every mod, which takes several minutes on a big pack. Wait for the Done line in the console before judging it. Pregenerating the area your group will explore, with Chunky, is worth doing before launch night: fresh chunk generation is the biggest source of lag in modded Minecraft.

How do I update a pack?

The Installed view under Resources shows the pack's version and tells you when a newer one exists. Take a backup, then update: the world stays and the mods are replaced with the new release. Everyone in your group updates their launcher to the same version at the same time.

Can Bedrock players join a modded server?

No. Modpacks are Java Edition and Bedrock clients cannot load mods. Crossplay through Geyser lets Bedrock players join vanilla-compatible Java servers, not modded ones.
