OccultCraft modpack Minecraft server

OccultCraft is a fantasy and medieval modpack by the CurseForge author ultixon, built around bosses, magic and fun. Its 6th edition runs on Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge. You install the server from the Modpacks tab, using the pack's CurseForge server pack.

Checked against OccultCraft 6.8 (the CurseForge file dated 18 July 2024) on Forge 47.2.5 and Minecraft 1.20.1, October 2026.

What the pack needs

• Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge 47.2.5. The server pack carries Forge 1.20.1-47.2.5 in its libraries folder. Minecraft 1.20.1 runs on Java 17, which the panel picks for you.
• Memory. The author's page says "I'd recommend at least 6GB of RAM for a server with OccultCraft installed". Your plan sets the RAM, so see how much RAM a Minecraft server needs and the Minecraft plans.
• Disk space. The server pack is a download of about 859 MB and unpacks to about 922 MB, and the download sits on your disk while it unpacks.
• The same pack version for players. Players install OccultCraft 6.8 from the CurseForge app.

The pack's page covers several editions, one each for Minecraft 1.16, 1.18, 1.19 and 1.20. The 6th edition is the newest, and the page still labels it a beta.

Install the server

Press the CurseForge chip in Modpacks, search for OccultCraft and pick OccultCraft by ultixon. The version list, the backup and the EULA are explained in Install a CurseForge modpack.

CurseForge lists the 6.8 file for Minecraft 1.20 to 1.20.6, so the popup may name a version such as 1.20.2. The server pack's own Forge files are for 1.20.1, and those decide what starts. The zip nests everything in a folder called OC6.7SP, and the install moves it up to the server's root. It also finds the launch files the pack ships, so nothing is downloaded for Forge. Then press Start on the Console and wait for For help, type.

Voice chat

The pack includes Simple Voice Chat. Its mod page says voice chat needs a port of its own, 24454 UDP by default, which can be changed in the server config, and the pack's config/voicechat/voicechat-server.properties sets port=24454. If your plan includes extra ports, add one under Settings then Network ports, set port in that file to the new number and restart. How to add an extra port explains the card.

Common problems

• A player cannot join. Check they run OccultCraft 6.8 on Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge, then compare their mod list with the server's mods folder.
• The server crashes at boot. Find and read a crash report shows how to name the mod at fault.
