How to make a HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) server
Yourself, on your own machine
- 1Download the server pack, not the client zip
The file called "server pack" on the pack's CurseForge page 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.
- 2Install Java 17
Minecraft 1.20.1 runs on Java 17. Install it and check with "java -version" before anything else; the wrong Java is the most common reason a Fabric server refuses to start.
- 3Run 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.
- 4Set 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.
- 5Open 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.
On FadeHost
- 1Start the free trial
No card. The signup remembers HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller); your account and server are created together.
- 2We install HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller)
The whole server pack, Fabric loader and the right Java, with the client-only mods that crash dedicated servers already removed. Pack updates are one click.
- 3Share 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.
Hosting notes for HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller)
- Pregenerate the area your group will explore (Chunky, radius 2000 to 3000) before launch night. Fresh chunk generation is the biggest lag source in modded Minecraft.
- The first boot registers every mod and can take several minutes. Wait for the Done line instead of restarting into a half-written config.
- Pin the pack version on the server and every client and update together. A client on a newer pack build is refused or misses content. Back up before pack updates.
- Client-only mods (shaders, HUD and texture mods) belong on players' PCs. The server pack leaves them out, and our installer removes the known ones that crash dedicated servers.
Why host HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) on FadeHost
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.
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.
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.
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 HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) server?
The short way: start a FadeHost trial and pick HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller); 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 17, run the Fabric installer, accept the EULA, set the memory and open port 25565. Both are described on this page.
How do I play HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) with friends?
Host a server for it: everyone installs HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) 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 HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) server need?
6 GB for a group of 2 to 4 friends and 8 GB for 5 to 10 players, estimated from the loader and version (Fabric 1.20.1).
Where do I download the HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) server files?
From the pack's CurseForge page: every release has a separate "server pack" file with the mod jars and configs. The client zip is only a manifest. On FadeHost the server pack is fetched and installed for you.
Can I host a HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) server for free?
Not on the free tier: it gives 2 GB and HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) 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 HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) need?
Minecraft 1.20.1 runs on Java 17. 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 HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) too?
Yes. Everyone joining needs the same HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) 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 HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) 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 HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) work on Bedrock (phones and consoles)?
No. HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) is a Java Edition modpack and Bedrock clients cannot load mods. Geyser lets Bedrock players join vanilla-compatible Java servers, not modded ones.
The HORROR - Into The Backrooms - Found Footage (dweller) 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.
