How to Set Up TerraFirmaCraft on BananaServers

TerraFirmaCraft completely transforms Minecraft’s survival mode into a realistic, progression-based experience. From geology and metallurgy to temperature and nutrition systems, it offers one of the most immersive modded survival experiences available.

This guide will show you how to properly install and configure TerraFirmaCraft on your BananaServers Minecraft server using the Peel Panel.


Step 1: Log Into Peel Panel

  1. Visit https://peel.bananaservers.ca.

  2. Log in with your BananaServers account credentials.

  3. Select your Minecraft server from the list on your dashboard.

Once inside, you’ll see your server’s Console, Files, and other management tabs.


Step 2: Install the Correct Server Version

TerraFirmaCraft requires Minecraft Forge, with the exact version depending on your chosen TFC release.

  1. Go to the Version Changer tab in your server’s menu.

  2. Select Forge as your server type.

  3. Choose the correct Minecraft version compatible with TerraFirmaCraft:

    • TerraFirmaCraft Classic: Forge 1.12.2

    • TerraFirmaCraft: The Next Generation: Forge 1.18.2

    • TerraFirmaCraft 1.20+ releases: Forge 1.20.1 or later

  4. Click Install Version and wait for the installation to complete.

Then, under the Startup tab, verify that:

  • The Java version matches the mod requirements (Java 8 for 1.12, Java 17 for 1.18+, Java 21 for 1.20+).


Step 3: Upload the TerraFirmaCraft Mod Files

  1. Download the appropriate TerraFirmaCraft mod .jar file from CurseForge.

  2. In the Peel Panel, open the Files tab.

  3. Navigate to the /mods folder.

  4. Click Upload and select the TerraFirmaCraft .jar file.

  5. Upload any compatible add-ons (like TFC Metals or TFC Florae) if you plan to use them.

     Tip: All mods must match your chosen Minecraft and Forge version to prevent crashes or mismatches.


Step 4: Configure Server Settings

Adjust World Generation for TerraFirmaCraft

In order for TerraFirmaCraft to generate its custom terrain, you need to change the level-type in your server.properties file.

  1. In the Files tab, locate and open server.properties.

  2. Find the line that begins with level-type= and modify it according to your version:

     
    # For TerraFirmaCraft Classic (1.12) level-type=tfc_classic
    # For TerraFirmaCraft: The Next Generation (1.18) level-type=tfc:tng
    # For TerraFirmaCraft 1.20 & 1.21 level-type=tfc\:overworld
  3. You can also update other settings such as:

     
    level-name=TerraWorld motd=Welcome to TerraFirmaCraft!
  4. Save your changes.

If you’re generating a new world, consider deleting or renaming the existing /world folder so a fresh TerraFirmaCraft world is created when the server restarts.


Step 5: Restart and Verify Installation

  1. Return to the Console tab.

  2. Click Restart to apply all changes.

  3. Watch the console logs for successful mod loading messages such as:

     
    [TerraFirmaCraft] Loading world data... [Forge] Successfully loaded 50 mods.
  4. Join the server using the same Forge and TFC version in your Minecraft client.

If you see TerraFirmaCraft’s distinct terrain and survival systems, the setup was successful!


Troubleshooting & FAQs

Q: My server crashes during startup.

  • Check that all installed mods match the same Forge and Minecraft version.

  • Look in the console logs for version mismatch or dependency errors.

Q: The world generated normally, without TFC terrain.

  • Ensure you’ve set the correct level-type in server.properties.

  • Delete the old world folder and restart to regenerate using TFC’s world type.

Q: Players can’t join the server.

  • All players must have identical mods and versions installed on their client.
