Did you know that Minecraft is one of the most popular games in the world? Did you know that there are servers where people can play as a team and complete challenges together? Did you know that these servers are called ‘modded’ servers? How much do you know about modded Minecraft, exactly? If the last answer was nothing at all, do not worry! We’ve got your back. In this blog post, we will cover everything you ever wanted to know about modded Minecraft. Keep reading to learn more.
How Much RAM For A Modded Minecraft Server?
There is no definitive answer to this question as it will vary depending on the specific configuration of your server. However, a general rule of thumb is to use at least 2 GB of RAM for every 10 players who will be using the server simultaneously. So for example, if you have a server that will be accommodating 20 players at once, you should use at least 40 GB of RAM.
How To Find The Right One
Pick a server
There are many types of Minecraft servers. Some are for survival, some for creativity, and some for adventure. There are also modded servers where players can play with custom mods. However, before you start looking for one, you will need to decide which type of server you want to play on.
Find a good server name
The first thing that you should do is pick a good server name based on two things: the type of server (survival or creative) and what your friends will call it when they ask about it. If your friends will call it “Minecraft” or “Mobs” then keep the name as simple as possible. If not, make sure that the name is short and easy to remember so that people will be able to find your server easily in the list of servers available at minecraftservers.org or any other website like minecraftservers247.com. The easiest way is to use the name of your city or country, as most people will know what it is. For example, if you live in Germany and you want to play on a server called “Germany” then that would be an okay choice.
Pick a server IP address
You can find these IP addresses at minecraftservers247.com or minecraftservers.org, among other websites. However, you should not use the IP address that is shown there because it may not be the real one (it could be used by someone else). You should instead pick a random one that is close to yours so that your friends will be able to connect to it easily and quickly.
Choose the right version of Minecraft for your server
You should choose one of the versions of Minecraft for your server based on what type of players you want to have on your server: survival players or creative players. If you chose survival then choose any version. If you have a private IP address, then you should not change it.
Things To Look Out For When Finding Mods
The Minecraft version
The version of Minecraft you’re using will determine which mods are compatible. If you’re looking to install a mod that is not compatible with the version you’re using, then you will need to find a mod that supports the newer version.
The Forge API
You will also need to make sure that the mod is compatible with Forge. If it is, then you can use the Forge API (or ‘API’ for short) in order to install it on your server. You can find out more about this here: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/API – It might be a good idea to do some research on which mods are compatible with Forge first though!
Mod packs and texture packs
Mods often come in the form of texture packs and mod packs, which are collections of different mods all bundled together into one item. You can read more about them here: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Mod_packs -The texture packs and mod packs are often referred to as ‘packs’.
Installable or not?
Mods can either be installed into Minecraft or you can use them with Forge alone, in which case they are called ‘vanilla’ mods. You will need to make sure that the mod is installable before you can use it, otherwise, you will have some issues with it not working properly. If a mod is installable then you will see the Minecraft logo in the bottom left corner of your screen when you’re using that particular mod. If a mod is not installable, then you will see a different logo instead of it being installed on your server.
What Mods Do You Need To Run A Server?
Forge
Forge allows you to edit Minecraft’s files and add mods to the game. You can install Forge through a mod manager, or by downloading and installing it manually. We recommend you use the latter option because it is much easier!
WorldEdit
WorldEdit allows you to edit blocks in Minecraft, as well as create new custom blocks. You can download WorldEdit through a mod manager, or by downloading and installing it manually. We recommend you use the latter option because it is much easier!
Optifine HD
Optifine HD allows your server to run at higher resolutions than vanilla Minecraft does. This means that you will be able to see more of your map when you are playing on the server! You can download Optifine HD for both Windows and Mac.
Conclusion
This article has the ultimate guide to choosing the right amount of RAM for your Minecraft server. Depending on the mods and plugins you use, you can expect the amount of RAM you need to increase. If you decide to host a modded server, make sure that you have enough RAM to accommodate the number of players you expect to have. If you don’t have enough, your server could crash. It’s important to note that not all modded servers are created equally. Researching the mods and plugins you want to use is vital to building the perfect server.
