How Much RAM Does a Create Live 7 Server Need?
Create Live 7 is Season 7 of the German Create SMP series on NeoForge 1.21.1, with trains as the core logistics system this time around — see the Create Live 7 pack page for the full mod list. Here's how much RAM to actually give it at each stage of a season. 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 for solo play or quick testing. Create's contraptions and track networks will start to choke as soon as you add a second player or a longer rail line, so don't plan to actually play a season on this.
6 GB
The best starting point for most Create Live 7 servers. This matches the pack's own recommended RAM floor and comfortably covers the mod list, early-game builds, and a small group running the first train lines.
8 GB
Safer for a mid-size active group once multiple players are running trains, signals, and kinetic contraptions across a growing map at the same time.
12 GB
Built for 10+ players or a long-running world — once the rail network spans most of the map and factories are chained together, the extra headroom keeps tick times stable instead of degrading season over season.
