Pack setup
How should I set up Steam Deck Core for players and a server?
Use Steam Deck-1.17.1-1.0.zip 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.
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.
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 Steam Deck Core?
Steam Deck-1.17.1-1.0.zip on 1.17.1. The pack contents and setup notes below stay tied to that release.
The selected pack release is Steam Deck-1.17.1-1.0.zip. That file is for Minecraft 1.17.1 with Forge 37.1.1. It contains 4 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.

-L4 add subcommand, J, this lets L4 turn the minimap on and off
L5 T, for chat

this leaves R4 free for your own settings, or actiion layers
