Dungeons, Dragons and Space Shuttles Minecraft server

Dungeons, Dragons and Space Shuttles is a hardcore adventure and expert quest modpack for Minecraft 1.12.2 on Forge, by the CurseForge author Freebi85. Its page lists more than 1,750 quests, recipes built around big crafting tables, and over 20 dimensions including other planets. You install the server from the Modpacks tab, using the pack's CurseForge server pack.

Checked against DD&SS_V.8.0_R1 (the CurseForge file dated 8 October 2020) on Forge 14.23.5.2847 and Minecraft 1.12.2, October 2026.

What the pack needs

• Minecraft 1.12.2 with Forge 14.23.5.2847. The server pack ships that Forge jar and the Minecraft 1.12.2 server jar. Minecraft 1.12.2 runs on Java 8, which the panel picks for you.
• Memory. The author's page calls it a heavy pack, mainly on CPU and RAM, and recommends setting 8 GB of RAM. The server pack holds about 250 mod jars, and its own start script asks for up to about 6 GB. The panel does not use that script and sizes the heap from your plan's RAM instead. See how much RAM a Minecraft server needs and the Minecraft plans.
• Disk space. The server pack is a download of about 501 MB and unpacks to about 599 MB. The download sits on your plan's disk while it unpacks, so you need room for both.
• The same pack version for players. Players install DD&SS_V.8.0_R1 from the CurseForge app. The author's page links a separate project, Dungeons, Dragons and Space Shuttles 2. It is a different pack, so do not install it by mistake.

Install the server

Press the CurseForge chip in Modpacks, search for Dungeons, Dragons and Space Shuttles and pick Dungeons, Dragons and Space Shuttles, not the one ending in 2. CurseForge does not tag this pack with a loader, so the popup reads "modded" with Minecraft 1.12.2 rather than naming Forge. The backup, the EULA and the install button are covered in Install a CurseForge modpack.

The server pack ships its own Forge jar, so the install launches that jar and fetches no loader.

First start

The server pack includes an eula.txt set to false, and the panel's prompt is how it gets accepted.

The pack has no server.properties. The install writes a short one and the server fills in the rest on its first start. Use Config Editor after that for Player slots, Difficulty and the other settings.

Common problems

• A player cannot join. Check they run V.8.0_R1 on Minecraft 1.12.2 with Forge, then compare their mod list with the server's mods folder.
• The server crashes straight away. Find and read a crash report shows how to name the mod at fault.
