Welcome to Polymania!

Polymania is a Fabric Server-Side modpack, which main goal is to provide classic modded experience, while being easy to install and use. It's ideal for server you want to play on with your friends, as the only thing needed is a place to host it and vanilla Minecraft client!

This modpack is contains:

• A full on factory/automation with machinery powered by rotation and logic cables, provided by PolyFactory mod!
• Many new decorative and building blocks blocks for builders from furniture to new bricks and stones! Provided by PolyDecorations, (modified) Blockus and others.
• Programmable computers from ComputerCraft, modified to work server side.
• New biomes and structures, thanks to mods and datapacks such as Cliff under a Tree, (modified) Traverse, (modified) Cinderscape and more.
• New mobs, friendly and aggresive, by Tom's Mobs and Illager Expansion Recrafted
• And more!

Installation.

Modpack is available on Modrinth, which all methods provided below will source it from.

Provided installer (Recommended).

Every release of a modpack provides extra file named server.jar. Just download it and run it like any other Minecraft server (see MC wiki for running it locally, or follow your server hosting tutorial about using custom jars). Only thing you will need to do is to accept Minecraft's eula.

Using mrpack4server.

You can use mrpack4server just as it's described in readme. Officially provided server.jar uses pre-configured version of it set to download the pack, so there should be no functionality difference aside of setting it by hand.

Other methods.

Other known methods of installing modrinth modpacks include mrpack-installer or itzg/minecraft-server docker image, through I wouldn't suggest using them for non-technical users.

Faq

Can I check all recipes somehow? Also can I hide the block names on top of the screen!

Yes! You can use /polydex command to show all available item recipes. Block/Entity names on top of the screen are also handled by the Polydex. You can read more about it here!

Can I run this modpack on the client/singleplayer?

Officially no, as some mods won't work correctly! As some mods got modified run better with PolyMc, the core mod allowing them to run server side, some of the required client side code was removed, which can make them unstable if not fully broken when ran in singleplayer. You need to run it on a server to make it work fully.

Can I use Geyser with this?

Currently? Sadly not. Due to many differences between how java and bedrock handle many technical / datapack / resourcepack features. This modpack won't work correctly with Geyser users. So even if they managed to join, they likely won't see textures and models correctly, while also not being able to use some items and blocks at all.

Does ViaVersion / ViaBackwards work with this?

Heavily depends on versions you use. Generally it might work in some cases, where enough things didn't change, but at least with older versions things will work worse if not at all in case it's missing required behaviour/feature. In case of newer version, it's possible some things won't work due to format / display changes in Minecraft resource pack features, through it should be way more compatible.

Modified mods, included assets and licenses.

Polymania uses forks of mods, which source code/changes you can see check at PolymaniaForks github page.
