Cobblemon Official Modpack Server Hosting

By Justin, founder of Alpenglow Hosting · Pack facts checked on CurseForge, 2026-10-06

Short answer: a Cobblemon server for a group of friends needs 4 GB of RAM. On Alpenglow it runs on Fabric 1.21.1, installs in one click, and costs about €1.56 a month for three evenings a week, because you pay per hour of play and the server sleeps when nobody is online. New accounts get 50 free credits, which is about 12 hours on that server.

How much RAM a Cobblemon server needs

CobbledStudios recommends a minimum of 2.5 GB and 3 GB or more for best performance. On Alpenglow, 4 GB gives a group of friends headroom.

Minimum
3 GB
Two or three players, a fresh world
Recommended
4 GB
A group of friends, the setting we start you on
Large group
6 GB
More players, big bases, long-running worlds

You can change the RAM at any time in the panel. If the console shows the server running out of memory or tick times climbing, go one step up. More on sizing in how much RAM a Minecraft server needs.

What a Cobblemon server costs

One credit is one hour of 1 GB RAM, so a 4 GB server uses 4 credits an hour. A credit costs one cent at the base price and about 0.77 cents in the largest pack. Hours while nobody is online cost nothing, because the server sleeps.

One evening a week
about 3 h · 13 h a month · 4 GB
Base price: €0.52 a month
Largest pack: €0.40 a month
Three evenings a week
about 3 h each · 39 h a month · 4 GB
Base price: €1.56 a month
Largest pack: €1.20 a month
Every day for a while
about 3 h daily · 90 h a month · 4 GB
Base price: €3.60 a month
Largest pack: €2.77 a month

A flat monthly plan with 4 GB costs the same whether you play 13 hours or 300. Pay-per-hour wins until a server runs more than roughly eight hours every day. The full comparison is in the Minecraft server cost guide.

Good to know

  • Clients and servers running the official pack can connect to plain Cobblemon servers too, according to the pack's description.

If the pack crashes on start, the server console explains the cause in plain language. The most common reasons for modded packs are too little RAM and a mod that only belongs on the client. The free crash log analyzer reads any log, and our guide on why modpack servers keep crashing covers the rest.
