Does it go on the server or on players' games?

Embeddium is a client-only mod: it doesn't run on the server. Each player installs it in their own Minecraft if they want it. Add it in the panel as "Players only" and it ships inside everyone's modpack.

How to add Embeddium to your server

  2. In the world's "Mods" section, search for Embeddium in the Modrinth catalog. You'll only see what works with your world.
  3. Add it with the "Players only" option, the one the panel suggests for this mod.
  4. Start or restart the server so it installs.
  5. Ask your friends to download the .mrpack modpack from the panel again.

Do players have to install Embeddium?

Embeddium is a client-only mod: it doesn't run on the server. Each player installs it in their own Minecraft if they want it. Add it in the panel as "Players only" and it ships inside everyone's modpack.

What other mods does Embeddium need?

Is it worth adding Embeddium to the server if it's client-only?

Yes, as a convenience. It does nothing on the server, but if you add it as "Players only", it ships inside the .mrpack modpack and everyone gets it without searching. It uses no server resources.
