SkyFactory 4

SkyFactory 4 stands as the iconic skyblock modpack with over 12 million downloads, challenging players to build technological civilizations starting from nothing but a single tree in the void. When you host a SkyFactory 4 server, you're providing the definitive skyblock experience that has entertained millions of players worldwide.

Why Host a SkyFactory 4 Server?

Skyblock's unique premise - starting with nothing in an empty void - creates immediate engagement. Players have clear goals from the first moment: expand the island, gather resources, and progress toward automation. This structure makes SkyFactory 4 accessible to new players while providing depth for veterans.

Server Requirements for SkyFactory 4

SkyFactory 4 is relatively lightweight compared to exploration-focused packs. We recommend 4-6GB RAM for comfortable multiplayer. The void dimension reduces terrain generation load, and the pack's focused mod selection keeps resource usage reasonable. Efficient mob spawning systems can increase server load, but our optimized configurations handle this well.

Starting from Nothing

Each island begins with a single tree and a small platform. From these humble beginnings, players bootstrap entire resource processing systems. Sieving dirt produces ores, trees provide wood and saplings, and clever mechanics expand possibilities exponentially.

Resource Trees System

SkyFactory 4's signature resource trees grow ores, gems, and materials on branches. Players cultivate orchards of iron trees, gold trees, and even diamond trees. This elegant system provides infinite resources while requiring creative automation.

The Prestige System

SkyFactory 4 innovates with prestige - optional world resets that grant permanent bonuses. Players can prestige multiple times, each reset providing advantages that make subsequent runs faster. This creates incredible replayability and goals beyond single playthrough completion.

Multiple Progression Paths

Beyond the primary tech tree, players can pursue magic, exploration (despite being skyblock), and various side objectives. This variety prevents the linear feeling some skyblock packs suffer from.

Efficient Automation Focus

Success in SkyFactory 4 requires building efficient automated systems. Mob farms produce resources, processing chains refine materials, and storage systems manage inventory. The automation-focused gameplay keeps players engaged in optimization.

Perfect for Multiplayer

Skyblock naturally supports multiplayer with players sharing an island or building neighboring platforms. Competition and cooperation both work well in SkyFactory's framework.
