How to Make a Better MC Fabric Server (Fabric 1.20.1)
Better MC [FABRIC] - BMC2 needs a modded server. On Chunkly that is a Kingdom plan, and the pack installs from the panel in a few clicks. This page covers the loader, the RAM to start with, the install steps and how friends join.
What Better MC Fabric needs
BMC2 is the Fabric build of Better MC, a Vanilla+ pack on Minecraft 1.20.1 with new biomes, structures, mobs and quality-of-life mods.
Loader: Fabric. Minecraft: 1.20.1. Source: Modrinth. Mod loaders only run on Kingdom plans; Campfire and Village cannot run any mods.
How much RAM
Vanilla+ packs are lighter than tech packs, but extra world generation costs memory while players explore.
Our starting point: Kingdom 6 GB (€11.40 a month) for a small group, and Kingdom 8 GB (€15.20 a month) for a bigger group or an older world. If the pack's own page lists a server RAM figure, follow that instead.
If the panel warns that the world is running out of memory, use Upgrade plan on the Overview. The world, files and address stay the same, and the extra RAM applies after the next restart. See the RAM guide.
Install Better MC Fabric on Chunkly
- Create a Kingdom world, or open an existing one.
- Go to Mods and pick the Modpacks tab.
- Search for Better MC Fabric, or paste its link:
https://modrinth.com/modpack/better-mc-fabric-bmc2. - Click Use this pack, then Apply to server and confirm. Your world folder stays on disk.
- Wait. The first start of a large pack often takes 10 to 30 minutes and can restart once. Do not press Restart while it says Starting.
Get your friends in
Every player needs the same Better MC Fabric version on their own game, or the server refuses them with an incompatible mod list.
On the Mods page, Copy friend link gives friends a page with the install steps and the join address. Download for your game gives a ZIP of every mod for any launcher. Players using the Modrinth App or Prism can install the pack from there instead.
Friends join with your address, like name.play.chunkly.net, with no port.
Good to know
Better MC also has a Forge build (BMC4) and a NeoForge build (BMC5). Server and players must use the same one.
Modded worlds sleep only after two days with nobody online, because they are slow to boot. Make a backup on Backups with Create backup before every pack update.
Server crashing on start? See mods not loading. Full install guide: how to install a modpack.
