Gameoverse Minecraft Server

A "kitchen sink" modded server focused on multiplayer survival. Play however you like: combat, magic, classes, exploration, or just building and decorating. There's no real "end" or set of goals, just a forever world for doing whatever you want, for however long you want.

Fabric, Minecraft 26.1.2 Online 24/7 Hosted by Foxomy

Getting Started

1

Install the modpack

Install Prism Launcher and link your Minecraft account in the app. Click Add Instance in the top-left, then the Import tab, and paste in our Modpack link. Prism installs Minecraft and every required mod automatically. When it's done, click Launch.

2

Connect to the server

  • Launch the game and select Multiplayer.
  • Click the Gameoverse server (our address is always mc.gameoverse.com).
  • Click Join Server. First time joining, the modpack will fully update before you connect.

About the "Unverified JAR Files" warning

When you connect for the first time, AutoModpack shows a screen like this, warning that some files don't match a public listing on Modrinth or CurseForge. This is expected:

Most of them (~40) are internal libraries bundled inside LuckPerms, our permissions plugin, things like Adventure, ByteBuddy, and Caffeine. These ship packed inside LuckPerms itself, so they were never separately listed on Modrinth or CurseForge to begin with. LuckPerms's own source is fully public: github.com/LuckPerms/LuckPerms.

The rest are mods we've custom-built, forked, or modified ourselves. Every one we're legally able to publish has its full source public:

Three more are our own ports of existing mods, which we can't publish since the originals' authors haven't released them under an open license, but here's the real, original mod each is based on: Creeper Overhaul, Enderman Overhaul, and Multiplayer Spawners. Ask us on Discord if you'd like to know what changed from the original.

The full list of every mod on this server, with links, is always available in our MODLIST.md. If that all sounds reasonable and you trust us to run this server, check "I understand the risk and trust this server" and click Download to continue.

Update the modpack

The server updates automatically. Every time you connect, mods sync with the server, so just wait for the update, launch, and you're ready to play.

  • Once connected, run /discordverify to link your Discord account and unlock full privileges. Unverified players can't interact with the world. A friend who's already verified can run /vouch (player) to let you skip verification.
  • We will never ask for your email or any account information. Anyone who does is a scammer, report them immediately.

Client-side mods are welcome, cheats aren't. Any mod that gives you an unfair advantage over other players will get you banned. Play fair and respect other players.

What's Different

Our server is modded and adds plenty of new features, but most things still play just like normal Minecraft. Everything's been changed in an intuitive way, so new and experienced players shouldn't feel overwhelmed at the start.

Full controller support Configure it under Options » Controls » Controller Settings. The presets work fine for most players.
Bridging for everyone A beloved Bedrock-only feature, backported for all players here.
Land claims Claim the land around your builds. Nobody can interact with your area unless you allow it, and mobs can't grief it either.
Real-world calendar Seasons follow the real date (New York time) and affect weather, crops, and daylight length year-round.
No villagers, no villages, no wandering traders They're removed entirely.
Magic, classes, and gear Tons of spells, skills, weapons, and armor to find and craft, plus tougher enemies and better loot the deeper you explore.
Building and decorating Lots of new blocks and items to build and decorate with.
Custom skins Supported for every player, loadable from any account or URL.
Opt-in PvP Only players who've activated PvP mode can attack, or be attacked by, other players.
Regular updates New content on a regular basis, synced to your client automatically.

FAQ

What am I supposed to do?

Literally whatever you want. This is a "Forever World" with no goals other than what you set for yourself, with plenty of content for explorers and builders alike. Once you spawn in (and you're verified), you get a free house blueprint that instantly builds a starting house wherever you want. Use the Claim menu (apostrophe key) to claim the land you're building on, so mobs and other players can't mess with it unless you allow it.

Why is my health so low?

Everyone starts with 6 hearts, half of vanilla's usual 10. You grow that by finding and eating Heart Crystals, either crafted (8 Diamonds around a Nether Star) or found as a rare drop from almost anything you do: kills, chests, mining, even harvesting a fully grown crop. Each one is worth a permanent heart, with no upper limit.

Dying costs you a heart, down to a floor of 3, but never your items. Death here is never a loot-loss risk, only a health one. The tradeoff: the more hearts you carry, the tougher nearby enemies get and the better your odds at rare loot, so pushing your heart count higher is a real risk-and-reward choice, not just a grind. Staying near the starting 6 keeps the world gentle, if that's more your speed.

Where's the stamina bar, and how does healing work?

There isn't one, and there's no hunger bar either. Eating heals you directly instead of filling a meter, better food heals more and faster, so keep something to eat on you rather than waiting around to regenerate. Passive natural regeneration is off; food is genuinely the only thing that heals you day to day. Beds still let you skip the night like vanilla, they just don't heal you anymore on their own.

Why won't my controller work in some menus?

Press Select (or your controller's equivalent) to activate "Mouse Mode" for that menu. Some menus, like lockpicking, only work in Mouse Mode.

Why are some models or textures broken?

The resource packs probably didn't load properly. Go to Options » Resource Packs and hold T to reload the defaults. They'll refresh once you close the menu.

Is it safe to sign in with my Microsoft account?

Yes. Your Microsoft login never touches our server, only Microsoft's own servers ever see it. When you connect, all we get is your Minecraft username, a permanent ID number tied to your account, and your IP address, the same basic info any online multiplayer server gets. We never see your email, password, or any other Microsoft account detail, and we'll never ask for one. Requiring a real Microsoft account is actually there to protect you, it's what stops someone else from joining under your username. See our Privacy Policy for the full details.

Is this server pay-to-win?

No. There's no paid content at all, and there never will be. We accept donations to help with server costs, but donors don't receive any gameplay benefit.

Are there any server events?

Not right now, though more are planned. We're still figuring out the right way to implement them.

Is there a full list of the mods used in the modpack?

Yes. The complete list, with download links, is always in our MODLIST.md.

Can I play this modpack in single-player mode?

Yes. Once the modpack finishes updating the first time, every mod is downloaded and works fine in single-player, continuing to auto-update whenever you launch. You can also host a local game for friends with "Open to LAN" from the pause menu, sharing the link posted in chat as a Multiplayer server address. You're free to add extra mods of your own through Prism Launcher, but mods from the modpack itself can't be disabled or removed.

Can I get a backup of the world?

The entire server is backed up daily, and we'll share world backups with any verified player on request.

Can I get unbanned?

No.
