Quick answer

Which Kernova release should I use?

Updated last month
Latest stable file Kernova fabric 26.1.2 v1.0.1-release

Loader Fabric 0.19.3

Kernova fabric 26.1.2 v1.0.1-release is a complete pack release for 26.1.2 with Fabric 0.19.3. Install it as its own launcher instance. If the creator publishes a separate server file, make sure it names this exact pack release. 27 mods in this pack file.

Pack setup

How should I set up Kernova for players and a server?

Use Kernova fabric 26.1.2 v1.0.1-release 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 Kernova fabric 26.1.2 v1.0.1-release
Dedicated server setup Match Kernova fabric 26.1.2 v1.0.1-release
Pack loader Fabric 0.19.3

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 27
Client only 27
Server only 0
Not labelled 0

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 Kernova?

Kernova fabric 26.1.2 v1.0.1-release. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.

27 mods in this pack file

The selected pack release is Kernova fabric 26.1.2 v1.0.1-release. That file is for Minecraft 26.1.2 with Fabric 0.19.3. It contains 27 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.
