What MC Eternal 2 Is

adam98991 built MC Eternal 2 as a hybrid. Mekanism, Create, Applied Energistics 2 and Thermal serve the engineers; Ars Nouveau, Botania, Occultism, Goety, Hex Casting and Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks the magic users; and MineColonies the players who would rather run a town. Ad Astra goes to space, while Ice and Fire, Alex's Caves and L_Ender's Cataclysm bring dragons, strange caves and bosses.

A quest book with hundreds of tasks and challenges ties it together, and Terralith with part of the YUNG's series reshapes the world those quests send you into. The pack keeps growing: release 1.3 came out on 16 September 2026.

The MC Eternal 2 Release, Counted

How Much RAM an MC Eternal 2 Server Needs

More than any other pack on this site. Of 610 mods, 549 load on the server, and holding their blocks, items, recipes and quests in memory takes several gigabytes before a single chunk is loaded. Up to three players: 9 GB. Four to eight: 12 GB. Nine or more: 16 GB.

After that, MineColonies is the mod to watch. Every colonist is a creature with a job and a path to walk, so a town of fifty citizens is fifty entities thinking at once, plus the buildings they work in. A server where several players each run a colony belongs in the largest row, and the Performance line is worth a look when colonies and factories grow side by side.

The First Start and the First Chunks

Expect the first start to take a while. Forge sets up 549 mods one after another, and on a pack this size several minutes pass before the console prints Done. Later starts take about as long, so plan restarts for quiet moments rather than the middle of an evening.

Chunky ships with the pack. Before your group joins, run chunky radius 2000 and then chunky start from the console, and the heaviest part of exploring, generating terrain with Terralith, the structure mods and every biome in the list, happens while nobody is playing.

Setting Up MC Eternal 2 on Our Panel

1. Back up what is there now

   If the server already holds a world, make a backup on the Backups tab. The installer moves an old mods folder aside under a dated name instead of deleting it. A server on Paper or vanilla goes to Forge on the Settings tab first, because the Mods tab only shows on a server with a mod loader.

2. Search for MC Eternal 2 on the Mods tab

   Type the name and pick the MC Eternal 2 entry from CurseForge.

3. Choose version 1.3, or the one your group runs

   Take the exact version your players installed. Two releases can differ by a few mods, and a player whose list does not match the server's is turned away at the door.

4. Install it in one go

   The machine fetches the pack itself and switches the server to Forge 47.4.2 for Minecraft 1.20.1 on Java 17. The server pack the makers put out carries the configs, so the server starts with the same settings your players have.

5. Start it and wait for Done

   The first start loads 549 mods and builds the spawn area, which takes a few minutes. When the console prints Done, players join with the address from the panel.

Rather not do it yourself? With free setup we install MC Eternal 2 for you after you order.
