Terra Firma Far Horizons

Terra Firma Far Horizons is built for players who want a long-running, shared world where survival feels earned and progression is something your group plans together. Hosted on CreeperHost, you can turn that “slow-burn” TerraFirmaCraft-style experience into a reliable multiplayer server—always online, easy to update, and sized for the heavier demands that come with realistic crafting, world exploration, and guided progression.

• Run a serious, persistent TFC server on CreeperHost infrastructure—no leaving a desktop running, no “host is offline” nights.
• One-click install & versioning makes it easier to keep a group moving together as the pack updates.
• Self-hosting hits limits fast once exploration expands and multiple players are processing items, cooking, and building at the same time.
• More stable performance under load thanks to our modded-Minecraft-optimised hardware and platform—important for heavier simulation-style packs.
• Built-in tools to investigate lag help you pinpoint whether the issue is chunks, entities, machines, or player activity (without guesswork).

High-level overview

At its core, Terra Firma Far Horizons is a TerraFirmaCraft-centered modpack for Minecraft 1.20.1 (Forge) that leans into grounded survival and an extended technology journey. Expect a world where early-game choices matter, resources are processed through more involved steps, and your base evolves from practical shelter into a true production hub.

This pack is also designed with multiplayer in mind: it’s the kind of experience where different players naturally specialize—gathering, farming and cooking, metalwork, building, and later-stage industry—so a dedicated server is the best way to keep momentum and maintain a “living world.”

A CreeperHost advantage (early and practical)

Before you even invite friends, CreeperHost’s one-click modpack installation and updates that preserve config changes gives you a safer path to staying current while keeping the tweaks that make your server feel like your server. That matters in progression-heavy packs where even small config adjustments (view distance, spawn rules, map settings, claim plugins) can shape the whole experience.

What you’ll do on a Terra Firma Far Horizons server

• Start primitive and build upward with a slower, more intentional progression curve.
• Settle, expand, and explore—your group’s choices about base location and logistics tend to matter more than in “instant tech” packs.
• Use questing/guidance to keep players oriented as systems get deeper (especially helpful on a public or semi-public server).
• Develop mid-to-late game production where automation and processing become larger projects that benefit from stable server performance.

Hosting Considerations for Terra Firma Far Horizons

Realistic-survival packs tend to be heavier in a different way than pure “kitchen sink” packs: it’s not only about mod count, but also about ongoing world activity—exploration, persistent processing, and player-built infrastructure.

Memory & tick performance (what we commonly see)

• Plan for higher memory headroom than vanilla. As players explore further, keep farms running, and expand bases, the server benefits from extra RAM to reduce stutter and improve consistency.
• Server tick stability becomes the main goal. When the overworld is busy—multiple players in different regions, lots of active blocks/entities, and ongoing processing—CPU consistency matters as much as RAM.

World growth & exploration

• Longer-term servers naturally accumulate more region files. Regular backups and occasional world housekeeping (like trimming unused regions if you rotate seasons/chapters) keeps things manageable.
• If your community loves scouting and settling wide, we’ll typically recommend tuning view distance/simulation distance for balance rather than trying to brute-force it on underpowered hardware.

Updates and save compatibility

• Modpacks in active development can introduce changes that affect existing worlds. We strongly recommend:
  • keeping scheduled backups, and
  • testing updates (or staging them) before pushing to your main server—especially if your group is deep into progression.

Why CreeperHost is a great fit for this modpack

Hardware and platform that favor modded stability

Terra Firma Far Horizons benefits from the kind of consistent CPU performance you get on CreeperHost’s hybrid VPS platform running on Ryzen / EPYC / Intel Ultra servers optimized for modded Minecraft. That consistency helps when your world is “alive” with multiple players doing different tasks across multiple chunks.

Management that’s friendly to communities

• GUI-based config and file management for quick adjustments without wrestling with command line workflows.
• Lag-diagnosis tooling to help you identify what’s causing slowdown before it becomes a weekly problem.
• World and player management tools that make it easier to run a community server responsibly (and recover quickly if anything goes wrong).

Built for long-running modded worlds

With 13+ years hosting modded communities, we design for the reality of packs like this: they’re not weekend servers. They’re worlds you’ll want to keep for months—reliable uptime, DDoS protection, and support that understands modded behavior make the difference.
