Minecraft Server Modpack Guides

The following guide is intended for Minecraft servers running Forge, Fabric, and NeoForge. Vanilla Minecraft servers, Bedrock servers, and most other non-modded Minecraft servers won’t be able to handle Minecraft server mods or modpacks.

We recommened modpacks from Modrinth, or CurseForge. But we also offer various other modpack providers through our Modpack Installer on our game panel.

Regardless of where you download modpacks from only download modpacks from authors and sources you trust. Downloading and installing modpacks from untrusted sources can lead to security vulnerabilities.

You won’t be needing to upload any modpack yourself, our game panel has a feature that allows you to simply select the modpack you want to install, and it will automatically download and install it for you.

For manual modpack installation, please follow the guide by clicking here.

Below is a step-by-step guide on how to install a Minecraft modpack on your server.

Automatic Installation

Some modpacks don’t include a server pack by default. Installing the modpack will still work most of the time, but may result in the server crashing on startup due to detecting client-only mods that are trying to be loaded into the server. If this happens you can either look through the crash logs and delete the mods that are causing the issue. The alternative is to let us help you out, just join our Discord server and create a ticket in the #create-ticket channel.
