About Better MC

Better MC keeps the feel of vanilla Minecraft while layering in richer world generation, smoother combat, structures, quests and quality-of-life. It's the pack for people who love base Minecraft but want more to explore without a steep modded learning curve.

Beautiful expanded world-gen and new structures
Better combat, backpacks and quality-of-life throughout
Built-in quest book to guide progression
Feels like vanilla+, not a total conversion

Questions

Better MC hosting FAQ

How much RAM does Better MC need on a server?

Better MC runs on Forge 1.20.1. We recommend 8 GB RAM for a small group - modded packs are RAM-hungry, and 6 GB is the practical floor. The recommended plan beside this page is sized for it. Players join from Minecraft: Java Edition, since Bedrock players can't join a modded Java server.

How do I install Better MC?

One click. Pick the recommended plan and Better MC is preinstalled when your server provisions - or install it any time from the Modpacks tab in your server panel. No manual file uploads.

Can I add mods or switch packs later?

Yes. The panel has a mod browser, a file manager and full console access, and you can install a different pack or a different Minecraft version whenever you like. Take a backup first and the old world is still there if you want it back.

Where are the servers located?

All our Minecraft servers run on low-latency hardware in Sydney, Australia, with DDoS protection and one-click backups included.
