Quick answer

Which Banjo's Lightly Optimized release should I use?

Updated 18 days ago
Latest stable file Lightly Optimized - 26.3 v1.0
Game version 26.3
Loader Fabric 0.19.5

Lightly Optimized - 26.3 v1.0 is a complete pack release for 26.3 with Fabric 0.19.5. Install it as its own launcher instance. If the creator publishes a separate server file, make sure it names this exact pack release. 34 mods in this pack file.

Pack setup

How should I set up Banjo's Lightly Optimized for players and a server?

Use Lightly Optimized - 26.3 v1.0 as the pack version. Install the pack as its own launcher instance. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file, so check the release notes before setting up a dedicated server. Do not upload the ordinary client folder blindly.

Client instance Install Lightly Optimized - 26.3 v1.0
Dedicated server setup Match Lightly Optimized - 26.3 v1.0
Pack loader Fabric 0.19.5

A pack is a matched client and server setup, not one mod with an install-side label. Keep its release, loader, manifest and overrides together.

Plan the server requirements Read the Minecraft installation guide
Referenced mods 34
Client only 14
Server only 0
Not labelled 20

These numbers come from the pack file you chose. “Not labelled” means we don’t know which side it belongs on—not that it is safe everywhere. The file count is not a RAM estimate.

What are the server requirements for Banjo's Lightly Optimized?

Lightly Optimized - 26.3 v1.0. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.

34 mods in this pack file

The selected pack release is Lightly Optimized - 26.3 v1.0. That file is for Minecraft 26.3 with Fabric 0.19.5. It contains 34 mod projects. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file. Check their notes before using one, and do not upload an ordinary client folder or rebuild the pack mod by mod. A file count cannot tell us the right RAM, CPU or storage; size the server for the players and world you actually run.

About this project

What kind of pack is Banjo's Lightly Optimized?

This modpack is a stripped out, performance only variant of my other Lightly Salted modpack. It takes all of the performance enhancing mods like Ferrite Core, Lithium, Entity Culling and more to make this pack ready to run on Valve's Steam Deck or even a low power desktop/laptop computer.

Other mods like Controlify add controller support. With Crafting Tweaks added as well, this makes navigating the crafting table via a controller just a bit easier.

Other quality of life mods from Lightly Salted that did not add extra graphical burden are present such as Shulker Box Tooltip, Appleskin, Journeymap, and Chat Heads.

On modpack version 1.21.11 v1.0 with the modpack's default video settings:

Note: VSYNC was disabled and max FPS was set to Unlimited for testing.

~80fps average on an Amplified Generation server world with highs of 90fps and lows of 45fps. ~50fps average on a Normal Generation singleplayer world with highs of 60fps and lows of 26fps. The low-spec laptop this was tested on was an HP ProBook 450 G1 (2013 model) equipped with the following:

  • Sata SSD
  • Intel i5-4200M @2.5GHz (2 cores, 4 threads)
  • Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600
  • 2x8 (16GB) DDR3 SODIMM
  • Windows 10
