14 mods in this pack file

The selected pack release is Bare Optimized (FORGE)-1.0.1.zip. That file is for Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge 47.4.10. It contains 14 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.
