What is SkyFactory 4?

SkyFactory 4 turns the classic skyblock concept on its head: there is no ground beneath you, just a tree and a chest. Everything else — resources, food, machines — has to be earned through automation and resource multiplication.

The prestige mode lets you start over in a fresh world with global unlocks after beating the pack — for anyone who wants to dig even deeper into the skyblock loop.

That one tree becomes an entire production empire: breed saplings, unlock resource trees, sieve, smelt and finally run fully automated plants — the loop of scarcity and automation is the heart of SkyFactory.

On a server the island grows together: every new platform, every machine is visible team progress — and once you are through, Prestige mode restarts you in a fresh world with global unlocks. The compact void world keeps server load pleasantly low.

Tested technical baseline

SkyFactory 4 is available as a launchable server configuration with forge on Minecraft 1.12.2.

Recommended setup

6 GB RAM is plenty for the skyblock classic — the void world is tiny, and only large automation builds need more. Boot-verified on Minecraft 1.12.2 with Java 8, the pack's official foundation.

What awaits you in the pack

Skyblock start

You begin on a single tree floating in the void — every resource has to be earned.

After beating the pack you can start a fresh world with global unlocks carried over across worlds.

Automation

Ex Nihilo sieves and machines multiply your resources until manual labor becomes obsolete.

200+ mods

Over 200 carefully tuned mods deliver deep progression without chaos.

A successful installation, startup or join test applies only to the tested version and does not demonstrate stable operation under every player load.

Frequently asked questions

Does the button use the matching configuration?

Yes. The wizard preselects the matching loader; modpack pages also load only the verified featured pack.

Can I change version and RAM later?

Yes. Always check compatibility and create a backup before changing versions.

Do players need the modpack on their own PC?

Yes. Every player installs SkyFactory 4 through the CurseForge App, then connects to your server.

What exactly does prestige mode do?

Once you reach certain milestones you can move to a fresh world while keeping unlocked perks — that keeps the skyblock experience exciting even on a second run.

Is 6 GB RAM enough?

Stable for 5 to 9 players, yes. With more players or elaborate factories you can raise the RAM in the panel at any time.
