Loader Fabric 0.16.14

Pack setup
How should I set up MCPS1 for players and a server?
Use MCPS1 0.1.0 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 MCPS1 0.1.0
Dedicated server setup Match MCPS1 0.1.0
Pack loader Fabric 0.16.14
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.
Referenced mods 37
Client only 0

Not labelled 37
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 MCPS1?
MCPS1 0.1.0. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.
The selected pack release is MCPS1 0.1.0. That file is for Minecraft 1.21.5 with Fabric 0.16.14. It contains 37 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 MCPS1?
MCPS1 Modpack for 1.21.5
The MCPS1 Modpack is built to deliver a nostalgic, low-poly aesthetic reminiscent of classic PlayStation 1 games, perfectly tuned for Minecraft 1.21.5. Whether you're seeking that sweet retro vibe for your solo adventures or want a lightweight modpack for server play, MCPS1 brings a distinct look and feel to Minecraft without sacrificing functionality. This modpack focuses on visual downgrades, interface simplification, and performance optimization—creating an experience that feels like Minecraft through the lens of late-90s console gaming.
Key features
Retro Visuals: MCPS1 transforms the Minecraft world into a pixelated, low-res playground with textures and effects inspired by early 3D gaming on the PS1.
Performance Boosts: Designed with low-spec compatibility in mind, this modpack trims excess features and includes optimization tools to ensure smooth gameplay even on older or less powerful machines.
Vanilla Server Compatibility: Although created with a retro solo experience in mind, MCPS1 is fully compatible with any vanilla-friendly server, giving you flexibility to play how you want without compromising the throwback feel.
