Installs automatically · Live in under 30 seconds · No port forwarding
Ars Nouveau turns magic into a system you design: spells are built from glyphs, so every player on the server ends up with their own signature toolkit — one healer, one battlemage, one person who automated their farm with source jars.
It's also unusually multiplayer-friendly for a magic mod: rituals, drygmy farms and summons all run fine alongside other players' bases without config surgery.

Questions, answered.
How much RAM does an Ars Nouveau server need?+
4 GB is comfortable for Ars Nouveau plus a few companion mods. Its summons and rituals are light on tick time compared to tech mods.
Do all players need the mod installed?+
Yes — spells, glyphs and familiars are new content, so every client needs Ars Nouveau (and NeoForge) at the same version as the server.
Does Ars Nouveau work with other magic or tech mods?+
It's designed for kitchen-sink packs and plays well with Create, Mekanism and Farmer's Delight. Add them from the Mods tab — required dependencies come along automatically.
