Firstly let me say hello, its been a long time since I posted on here.

 

I'm the owner of a community group mostly hosting Vanilla and Spigot servers and I am looking for some recommendations or advice on selecting a Forge server to host. We have occasionally hosted Forge servers as a novelty for our members such as blast off and MindCrack but we found it was not practical to host them long term as only a small percentage of our community was able to run the client. As times are changing with the advancement in computers and the growth of out hosting capacity, we would now like to try hosting a few on a permanent basis. We have already commissioned an Awakening server and brought our 1.4.7 MindCrack back online but now we are looking for advice for a good 3rd server.

 

There are 3 criteria we are trying to fill:
1. Should be a good progression for beginners, so quests are a plus.

2. Light weight for people with lower spec computers.

3. Good content and mods so Advanced players will still be interested in playing on it.

 

Any advice would be appreciated,

Thank you in advance.

I see, so forge forum is only for the server. This was confusing because your non-forge forum suggests its for vanilla/spigot/sponge etc and that anything  forge related such as mod packs do not belong in there. I see a mods forum but thats not packs. Might i suggest a new forum called mod packs.

    • Same issue without voicechat?
    • Start by following the docs to get a workspace setup: https://docs.minecraftforge.net/en/latest/gettingstarted/ Then poke around some of the tutorials, https://www.mcjty.eu/docs/1.20/ used to be the goto, but not sure if there are any updates for regular forge or not, but if you've brushed up on Java, it will be enough to get you started. Poke around the Minecraft and Forge sources to see how things are done. Read the FAQ for information on how to post code/logs when you run into issues. Share as much info on issues you have as possible. Use github to host projects, chances of someone helping are higher when they can actually see all your code and/or build it themselves. And finally, keep it on the forums, don't direct message people with questions, most people do not provide personal support like that. Also keep in mind forums posts are not always immediately answered, if you're looking for a quicker response, you can always try the Minecraft Forge discord server.
    • Hello, I have a Forge Minecraft sever (I host it at g-portal.com) which has always worked fine and I had no problems, but today it doesn't wanna work anymore. Today I started the server and the status said online, but after a few seconds it said this: "Start failed". And then out of nowhere it restarted itself and the same thing happened again and again and now it's in an infinite loop where it just keeps failing and then restarts. Here's the download link for the server logs: https://www.mediafire.com/file/sq30dgoonjevib1/2025-07-06-1.log/file Does anyone know how to fix this? If yes I would really appreciate help. Best wishes, Gabs1107
    • I'm experiencing a critical issue on a dedicated Arch Linux server running the latest Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1. When a player exits a Nether portal (not enters, and not via /tp) or teleports into the End via portal, the server completely freezes for 1–10 minutes. During this time, all commands are unresponsive, and the game world essentially locks up. This is with watchdog disabled. Environment: OS: Arch Linux (latest packages) Java: OpenJDK 17 (up to date) Forge Version: Latest 1.20.1 (tested multiple versions from the past ~3 months) Mods: None (issue occurs on a clean install) Server Type: Proxmox VM with: 4 virtual cores 64 GB RAM (63 GB allocated via -Xmx and -Xms flags) Observed Behavior: Observed Behavior: The server freezes for 1–10 minutes when: Exiting a Nether portal (entering does not trigger the issue) Entering or exiting the End using a portal Teleporting using commands (e.g., /tp) works only for the Nether; teleporting to the End via command also causes a freeze The issue occurs anywhere in the world, not tied to specific coordinates or builds During the freeze: The server becomes completely unresponsive to all commands and player actions No crash reports, no errors, and no warnings are logged CPU usage remains under 50%, and RAM usage stays around 6–14 GB After 1–10 minutes, the server recovers automatically and resumes normal operation
