CreeperHost offers the tools you need to run your dream How to train your Dragon: The Third Part server!
Host your How to train your Dragon: The Third Part server
Bring How to train your Dragon: The Third Part to life as a shared, always-on multiplayer world—hosted on CreeperHost so your group can focus on taming, building, exploring, and progressing without worrying about who’s online to start the server. This Forge 1.20.1 modpack blends dragon-focused adventure with magic and modern automation, making it a great fit for a persistent server that can keep up as your base (and your ambitions) grow.
- Always online, no “host player” bottleneck: everyone can play, explore, and progress on their schedule.
- Better stability once the world gets busy: exploration, structures, and automation add up—server-grade resources help keep ticks consistent.
- Self-hosting hits limits fast: RAM pressure and background CPU load can spike as players generate chunks and build systems.
- Simpler updates without breaking your setup: install and update the pack while preserving your configs and server identity.
- Built for groups: DDoS protection and operational reliability help keep your dragon world online when it matters.
High-level overview
How to train your Dragon: The Third Part is an adventure-forward modpack centered on a dragon-riding fantasy theme, supported by magic progression and tech automation. On a server, that combination tends to create “many playstyles at once”: explorers pushing worldgen, builders expanding hubs, and engineers automating resource chains—all happening in parallel.
What that means for multiplayer is simple: it’s at its best when your world stays up, your chunks stay loaded smoothly, and your server can handle peaks when several players are active at the same time.
What players typically do on a server
- Form a shared town or “Berk-style” hub with individual bases branching out
- Scout new terrain and structures to gear up and expand resources
- Build automation networks that keep materials flowing even when no one wants to grind
- Split roles (tamer/explorer/builder/tech) to progress faster as a team
Why CreeperHost is a great fit
Before you ever touch a config file, CreeperHost removes the biggest friction points of hosting modded 1.20.1:
- Hybrid VPS platform with strong single-thread performance: modded servers live and die by consistent tick rate, especially once multiple systems run at once.
- Hardware tuned for modded Minecraft (Ryzen/EPYC/Intel Ultra, liquid-cooled): steady performance under sustained load, not just short bursts.
- One-click modpack installation and updates that preserve your configuration changes: keep your server rules and tuning intact while staying current.
- Built-in lag diagnostic tooling: when something starts “feeling slow,” you have practical visibility to act quickly.
Hosting Considerations for How to train your Dragon: The Third Part
This pack’s mix of exploration + progression systems + automation creates common server load patterns:
Memory (RAM) expectations
- As players explore and generate new areas, memory use typically climbs. New regions, structures, and entities add overhead that a small home machine setup may struggle to keep stable over long sessions.
- For most groups, you’ll want enough headroom so garbage collection doesn’t become noticeable during peak activity.
CPU and tick stability
- Automation mods and logistics networks can introduce constant background work. Even well-built bases may add steady per-tick cost.
- The biggest spikes usually happen when multiple players are:
- exploring in different directions (new chunk generation),
- flying/riding quickly through new terrain,
- returning to large bases with active machines and storage systems.
World management best practices (multiplayer-friendly)
- Encourage a shared “main region” for community builds and keep heavy automation reasonably organized (spread out if needed).
- If your group loves exploration, consider a light-touch approach to pre-generating common travel corridors—this can reduce lag spikes during prime time.
