How to make a Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 server

Yourself, on your own machine

  1. 1
    Download the server pack, not the client zip

    The file called "server pack" on the pack's CurseForge page (BMC3 [FABRIC] 1.21.1 v45, 572 MB) contains the mod jars, configs and a start script. The client zip your launcher downloads is only a manifest and does not run as a server.

  2. 2
    Install Java 21

    Minecraft 1.21 runs on Java 21. Install it and check with "java -version" before anything else; the wrong Java is the most common reason a Fabric server refuses to start.

  3. 3
    Run the Fabric installer and accept the EULA

    If the pack does not ship an installed loader, run "java -jar fabric-installer.jar --installServer" in the server folder. Start it once, open eula.txt, set eula=true, start again.

  4. 4
    Set the memory to 6 GB

    Give it memory with -Xmx6G in the start command. The first boot registers every mod and can take several minutes; wait for the Done line before judging it.

  5. 5
    Open the port and invite people

    Forward TCP 25565 on your router and allow it in the firewall, then share your public address. Everyone installs the same pack version in their launcher; a newer client is refused or misses content.

  3. 3
    Share the address and play

    Your address works the moment the world finishes generating. The trial's 8 GB is enough to run the pack properly.

Why host Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 on FadeHost

The whole server pack, installed for you

Mods, configs and datapacks from the official Fabric pack, set up on first boot with the client-only mods removed. Pack updates are one click, never an FTP session.

Wake-on-join hibernation

The server sleeps when nobody is on and wakes the moment a player joins, so a friend group pays for a server that is actually up when it matters.

A crash doctor that reads the log

When a mod breaks the boot, the diagnosis names it and the fix is one click. Ask the Copilot why the server lags and it answers from the real console and stats.

Real hardware, live console

NVMe-backed nodes, full console and file access, scheduled backups to offsite storage, and every extra gigabyte of RAM is a dollar a month.

Frequently asked

How do I make a Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 server?

The short way: start a FadeHost trial and pick Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3; the server pack, the Fabric loader and the right Java install themselves and the server is online in a few minutes. The manual way: download the official server files, install Java 21, run the Fabric installer, accept the EULA, set the memory and open port 25565. Both are described on this page.

How do I play Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 with friends?

Host a server for it: everyone installs Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 in their launcher and joins one address, and the world keeps running while any of you is on. On FadeHost the pack installs itself when you create the server, the 7-day trial gives 8 GB with no card, and a sleeping server wakes when a friend joins. The manual way is the server files below on a machine that stays on with port 25565 open; LAN and direct connect only work while the host's PC is on and everyone is on the same network.

How much RAM does a Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 server need?

6 GB for a group of 2 to 4 friends and 8 GB for 5 to 10 players, estimated from the size of the official server pack (572 MB).

Where do I download the Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 server files?

From the pack's CurseForge page: every release has a separate "server pack" file with the mod jars and configs (newest: BMC3 [FABRIC] 1.21.1 v45). The client zip is only a manifest. On FadeHost the server pack is fetched and installed for you.

Can I host a Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 server for free?

Not on the free tier: it gives 2 GB and Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 needs 6 GB ($7.50 a month here). The 7-day trial gives 8 GB with no card, enough to run the pack properly.

Which Java version does Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 need?

Minecraft 1.21 runs on Java 21. On FadeHost the right Java is picked automatically; on your own machine install it before running the Fabric installer.

Do my friends need to install Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 too?

Yes. Everyone joining needs the same Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 version in their launcher (CurseForge, Modrinth or Prism). The server side is handled by the host; a client on a newer pack version than the server is refused or misses content.

Can I bring my existing Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 world?

Yes. Upload the world folder through the file manager or SFTP, or use the importer to pull the whole server from another host. Keep the pack version the world was played on until it is safely backed up.

Does Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 work on Bedrock (phones and consoles)?

No. Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 is a Java Edition modpack and Bedrock clients cannot load mods. Geyser lets Bedrock players join vanilla-compatible Java servers, not modded ones.

The Better MC [FABRIC] BMC3 server crashes on start. What now?

The usual causes are a client-only mod in the mods folder (shaders, HUD or texture mods), a loader build that does not match the pack version, the wrong Java, or too little memory. On FadeHost the installer removes the known client-only mods, the loader and Java are matched to the pack, and the crash doctor reads the log and names the mod when something else breaks.
