Fabric hosting, from $5 a month

Fabric servers, mods and all

Fabric runs mods and plays exactly like vanilla. Every server starts on Paper; switch it to Fabric from Mods & Plugins in one click, then add mods from Modrinth. Your friends get the same mods in one file.

What you get

All of it comes with every plan, from the smallest up. Nothing to install by hand, nothing extra to pay.

  • Mods from Modrinth, with what they need

    Search and install from the server's page, or tick up to 10 and install them with one restart. Dependencies like Fabric API come along, and each install is checked against Modrinth's own hash.

  • A player pack for friends

    The player side of your mods, at your server's version, in one .mrpack file that opens in the Modrinth App, Prism or the CurseForge App, with the server already in the multiplayer list.

  • The right Java, picked for you

    Each Minecraft era needs its own Java. The server runs the one your version needs, from 1.16's Java 8 to the newest.

  • spark, ready to use

    Every modded server gets spark at start, so ops can profile lag with /spark. The tick rate shows on the dashboard too.

  • It tells you why it crashed

    When a server crashes, the dashboard says why in plain words, like a mod made only for players' games or a missing dependency, and offers the fix.

  • A backup before every change

    Installs, updates and removals each take a backup first, and the first mod pins the Minecraft version so an update can't break what you've added.

From paying to playing

  1. Pick a size and pay. The server is up about a minute later.
  2. On Mods & Plugins, switch the software to Fabric. The Paper world is moved aside, not deleted, and Fabric makes a new one.
  3. Search Modrinth and install the mods you want. The server backs up, adds them and what they need, and restarts.
  4. Send friends the player pack from the Overview, and the address.

Good to know

  • New Minecraft versions can take a few days to reach Fabric. A server with mods stays on its version until you move it from Settings.
  • Mods' own code takes about 5 MB each from the plan; the server's Plan page shows what its mods need against its size and warns when it's tight.
  • Want a ready-made pack instead of picking mods? See modpack hosting.
