Our Modded Server

I would love you tell you guys a little more about our modded server. We’ve had our modded server up for a while now but I think not everyone knows enough about it to commit to downloading it. I decided that I should interview ChimpyKong, the specialist on our modded server. I asked him just a few questions about it and here are the results:

What is modded and what does it mean?

While everyone here probably is familiar with the plugins we use to run ohanacraft they might not know that they change the normal game environment a lot. Plugins allow for things like mail and most of our games would not be able to be played without plugins. However, plugins can only do what the game allows. Modded environments allow for programs to change the way that the game runs fundamentally. This change is not limited to game function but also adds additional blocks and resources machines. Think of Slimefun as a modded lite. true mod packs evolve anywhere from 2 to hundreds of different mods. The bigger the mod pack the harder it is to load and play.

What do i need to load a mod pack ?

You will need either the twitch.tv launcher or a program Multimc5. Multimc5 is a free program that will allow you to launch Minecraft programs independent programs.
Twitch.tv allows for the easy one-click installation of mods but may not be for everyone. Multimc 5 can be downloaded from this website. https://multimc.org/#Download
How do I connect to the server? Currently, ohanacraft is requiring a paid rank to be whitelisted. A whitelist application is in the works and should be available in the next couple days. However, you will connect to each pack using modded.ohanacraft.us:portnumber each pack has a different port and will be pinned per server.

How many mod packs can Ohanacraft support?

Currently, we are running a longer pack of DDSS Or Dungeons Dragons and space shuttles. We also offer Skyfactory4. We are going to be offering more packs in the immediate future including one that will help teach players the basics of most mods and another pack that will lower the min to 2 gigs. Testing is being done at the current moment. Another fav that is rather server and client intensive is the ever famous sevtech ages a popular mod pack that was played by our staff about a year back. It has since updated and would make an excellent addition to ohanacraft.

I would like to thank ChimpyKong very much for setting up the Ohana modded server and helping me explain it to you guys! If you have any questions what so ever you can leave a comment or message myself or chimpykong in-game or on discord 😀
*please note these games can be very ram intensive to join and do take time to bootup. We will try to get a min requirement chart available in the next week or two currently we are testing these.
