Smiley's Collection Server Hosting

Host Smiley’s Collection as a multiplayer server with CreeperHost and give your group an always-on place to explore its unsettling Verity-focused experience together. We handle the Forge setup while you concentrate on whatever is watching from the dark.

• One-click installation gets the correct pack onto your server quickly.
• Updates preserve your configuration changes instead of overwriting them.
• Home hosting stops when the host PC sleeps, restarts, or leaves the network.
• Casual setups make matching Forge, pack, and configuration versions harder.
• DDoS protection helps keep public or shared servers reachable.

Smiley’s Collection Overview

Smiley’s Collection is a compact horror pack built around Verity JE and add-ons including Smiley’s Better Brain, Better Vision, and Better Voice. Its focus is atmosphere and the experience associated with ThatMob’s Minecraft ARG series rather than a sprawling progression tree.

The pack contains 20 mods and runs on Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge 47.4.10. Recognisable additions include Flashlight, ItemPhysic, Modern Beta, Golden Days, and Torches Reimagined. Together, the selection leans into unusual encounters, altered presentation, and an older-looking Minecraft world.

On a hosted server, everyone can return to the same world without relying on one player to keep their computer running.

Hosting Considerations for Smiley’s Collection

Keep every installation aligned

The modest mod count makes this lighter than many large Forge packs, but version matching still matters. Players generally need the same pack release as the server, especially where mods, libraries, or configurations affect shared behaviour.

Before updating, take a backup and confirm that everyone is moving to the same release. Avoid changing individual dependencies unless the pack author specifically requires it; apparently minor library changes can prevent Forge from starting or clients from joining.

Watch the world, not just the mod count

A smaller pack does not make a server immune to ordinary Minecraft pressure. Long exploration sessions generate more chunks, while mobs, dropped items, and heavily active areas can increase tick time. The effect varies with the world and how your group plays.

For a small private group, sensible settings and a clean installation are usually more important than throwing excessive memory at the server. Leave enough headroom for Forge and world activity, but remember that extra RAM does not repair a busy tick loop or a problematic mod interaction.

Visual and audio features may place more demand on player computers than on the server. If one person struggles while everyone else is fine, check their client settings and pack version before assuming the server is at fault.

Run It with CreeperHost

Our hybrid VPS platform gives Forge native CPU performance on modern Ryzen, EPYC, and Intel Ultra hardware, helping the server keep its tick rate steady as your world grows.

CreeperPanel includes tools for investigating lag and managing worlds without digging through everything by hand. On eligible Premium and Pro services, Ask Theo can inspect the current panel and server state, explain what it finds, and prepare safe next steps for you to approve.

When the symptoms get stranger than the pack itself, you can also reach real CreeperHost people backed by more than 13 years of modded Minecraft hosting experience.
