How much RAM a Craft to Exile 2 server needs

Mahjerion recommends at least 6 GB on CurseForge. The pack is large, over 350 MB, so a server carrying a group is better off at 8 GB.

Minimum
6 GB
Two or three players, a fresh world
Recommended
8 GB
A group of friends, the setting we start you on
Large group
10 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 Craft to Exile 2 server costs

One credit is one hour of 1 GB RAM, so a 8 GB server uses 8 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 · 8 GB
Base price: €1.04 a month
Largest pack: €0.80 a month
Three evenings a week
about 3 h each · 39 h a month · 8 GB
Base price: €3.12 a month
Largest pack: €2.40 a month
Every day for a while
about 3 h daily · 90 h a month · 8 GB
Base price: €7.20 a month
Largest pack: €5.54 a month

A flat monthly plan with 8 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.

How to start a Craft to Exile 2 server on Alpenglow

  1. 1
    Create an account
    Email and password, or sign in with Google. No card. You start with 50 free credits.
  2. 2
    Click New Server and search for the pack
    Type "Craft to Exile 2" in the modpack search. The right loader, Forge, and Minecraft 1.20.1 are set for you.
  3. 3
    Set the RAM
    Move the slider to 8 GB. You can change it later.
  4. 4
    Start the server
    The pack is big, so the first start takes a few minutes while it installs. Later starts are quick.
  5. 5
    Share the address
    Every server gets its own address. When a friend joins, a sleeping server wakes up on its own; the first join attempt times out while it starts, so reconnect once it is up.

Good to know

  • Mahjerion publishes a server pack. Alpenglow installs it with the matching Forge version when you pick Craft to Exile 2.
  • Boss fights with many players spawn many entities at once. If the server stutters during fights, go to 10 GB.

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.
