How Much RAM Does a TAPE_37 Server Need?
TAPE_37 is an analog horror-themed mystery pack on Forge 1.20.1, and how much RAM it needs depends on how many players you're running and how long the world stays up. For the full rundown of what's in the pack, see the TAPE_37 pack page. Finnish players: Minecraft-palvelin hosting is our native-language page. German players: Minecraft-Server mieten covers the same hosting auf Deutsch. Svenska spelare: Hyra Minecraft-server täcker samma hosting på svenska.
4 GB
Bare minimum. Workable for solo play or testing the pack with one or two friends, but it leaves no headroom for the VHS distortion effects and clue-tracking systems once the world gets going.
5 GB
Best starting point — this matches TAPE_37's own recommended RAM floor. It's enough for the pack's analog horror systems to run cleanly for a small, steady group.
8 GB
Safer for a mid-size active group. Gives real breathing room as more of the world gets explored and more of the narrative's environmental clues are loaded in at once.
10 GB
For 10+ players or a world you plan to keep running long-term. Keeps the pack's distortion effects and found-footage systems stable even as the world and player count grow.
