Adrenaline is a client-side or server-side modpack, developed for Fabric, comprised of the best combination of mods (e.g. Sodium and Lithium, along with many more) that significantly improves rendering performance, logic performance, memory usage, and more - all without compromising on the game's vanilla looks and features!

It is designed to be simple and not include any quality-of-life mods, along with not including redundant performance mods. Because of this simplicity, the modpack is compatible with a very wide range of devices and can be updated to the latest versions very quickly. Want more features? No problem! Adrenaline serves as a great foundation for performance - simply add your favorite mods on top.

For the list of mods that are included, see this wiki page. Adrenaline can be installed on both clients and servers, so this list tells you what is installed depending on the environment.

📥 Installation Guide

Please be sure to read Sodium's Driver Compatibility section on the wiki before installing Adrenaline. It contains some important instructions on preventing crashes and other performance issues.

If you would like to install the modpack, go to this page on the SkywardMC website. You can install the modpack with a third party launcher or our standalone installer. After you install, you can figure out how to tweak things to give greater optimizations in the post-install section of the wiki. This includes procedures such as increasing your allocated memory and tweaking your game settings for your device.

After installing the modpack, you can easily add your favorite mods so long as they are compatible with the Minecraft version you are playing on. The wiki also has some recommendations on possibly improving performance further with other mods that are not suitable to be included in Adrenaline by default.

<summaryInstalling Adrenaline on a server</summary

Adrenaline also optionally functions server-side! We now use Modrinth's mrpack environment feature to install the proper mods for the correct environment. Client-side mods that are part of Adrenaline will not be installed through these methods. The server portion of this modpack was previously known as Adrenaserver.
