About the Modpack

What Is a SkyFactory 5 Server?

SkyFactory 5 is the fifth skyblock pack from Darkosto and Firstnecron. Release 5.0.8 from March 2025 runs Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge 47.4.0 with Java 17, and its manifest lists 293 CurseForge files. It is a separate project from SkyFactory 4, which stays on 1.12.2.

The theme is colour. Resources are crafted with dye collected from dripstone, gateways let you fight bosses for loot, and every completed gateway earns a trophy that lets you spawn that mob on demand. Create arrives in the series for the first time with a set of addons, alongside returning favourites such as Mystical Agriculture, Draconic Evolution and RFTools Dimensions, and a task book gives the progression a direction.

Skyblock worlds are small, so the load is machines and spawners rather than terrain. Mob spawning and farms are what run up tick time on a shared island, so spread them out and keep your group's automation in one area.

How Much RAM Does a SkyFactory 5 Server Need?

6 GB before anyone joins, then roughly 0.2 GB per player online.

your size needs€20/mo 8 GB
4 GBToo tight

€10/mo
6 GBToo tight

The minimum the pack page recommends, so nothing is left for players. It will start, but spawners and farms soon push it into long garbage-collection pauses.

€15/mo
8 GBUp to 10 players

Covers 10 players, enough for a group running Create lines, Mystical Agriculture farms and gateway fights together.

€20/mo
12 GBUp to 30 players

Covers 30 players. The right size once several islands run heavy automation or many spawners at the same time.

BarbieBigDiscord review
My server KuroKraft uses Craftlands hosting, great CPU great performance, but performance aside, a big thing is mrDadone … actually help a lot with running and setting up and giving advice on everything for the better. Network issues, plugin recommendations, server monitoring, they do it all. … The last thing they will do is push trying to get you to spend more on ram first if ur server is lagging because its 99.99% something else that is most likely the issue first before lack of memory or disk.
ShenKuroDiscord review
So far, AMAZING. They provide great support and multiple services! Helped setup a Proxy for our server and gave good suggestions for Plugins! They take the time to explain things to you and are honest with their Clients. A big winner for me, being able to buy multiple months in advanced is too good. All for a fair price for the Specs they provide.

FAQ Quick Help

Frequently Asked Questions

Loaders, pack sources, memory and cost, answered for modded Minecraft specifically.

How much RAM does a SkyFactory 5 server need?

The pack page recommends at least 6 GB, and that is for the pack alone. 6 GB is the floor with nothing spare, 8 GB is the working choice for about 10 players, and 12 GB covers 30.

Which Minecraft version and loader does it use?

Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge 47.4.0 with release 5.0.8, which needs Java 17. Players need the same pack version in their launcher, and extra mods must be 1.20.1 Forge builds.

Is SkyFactory 5 the same as SkyFactory 4?

No. SkyFactory 4 is a separate pack on Minecraft 1.12.2, so worlds do not move between them. We host both, and you can swap packs from the panel.

Is the world a void island?

Yes, you start isolated on a small island in a void world. Progression comes from the resource system, gateways and the task book rather than from exploring terrain.

Can my friends play on the same island?

Yes, a SkyFactory 5 server is one shared world, so your group builds and fights gateways together. Keep farms and spawners spread out as the island grows.

Can I add mods or move to a different pack later?

Yes to both. You get full file access plus one-click installs from CurseForge and Modrinth, and you can swap the server to another modpack from the panel on the same plan. We back up your world before the switch.

Start Your SkyFactory 5 Server Today

Modded Minecraft ticks its world on a single thread, so clock speed does more for your SkyFactory 5 server than extra cores ever will. Every plan runs an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X boosting to 5.7 GHz with DDR5 behind it, on a 10 Gbps line with DDoS filtering that stays on.
