Syncmatica is a Fabric and Quilt mod for Minecraft Java that adds a shared schematic layer on top of Litematica. Once the mod is installed on both the server and the client, any player can upload a Litematica schematic placement to the server so every other member of the build team can download and use the same blueprint without passing files around manually. The server holds one copy; clients sync when they connect.
Client and Server Installation
- 1.Download the Syncmatica JAR from Modrinth and confirm it targets your Fabric or Quilt version.
- 2.Place the JAR in the mods folder on the server.
- 3.Place the same JAR in the mods folder on each player's client.
- 4.Install Litematica on each client to get the full schematic-sharing interface.
- 5.Restart the server. No configuration file is needed for basic use.
How Schematic Sharing Works
With Syncmatica active, Litematica's placement context menu gains a share option. Hold Shift and select the placement to upload it to the server. Other players open the Syncmatica server placements screen and can download any shared schematic directly in-game. There is no need to host files externally or send them through chat: the server acts as a central schematic store for the whole team.
Compatibility and Dependencies
- Loaders: Fabric, Quilt
- Minecraft versions: 1.16.5 through 1.21.11
- Side: required on both client and server
- Optional: Litematica (schematic sharing UI), MaLiLib
Syncmatica does not require Litematica to start, but the schematic sharing controls only appear inside Litematica's placement menus. Servers that already have Litematica clients can add Syncmatica as a server-side mod and each client then upgrades to the shared-schematic workflow on their next login.

Questions about this entry.
How do I install Syncmatica?
Download the JAR from Modrinth, then place it in the mods folder on both the server and every player's client. Fabric Loader or Quilt is required. Restart the server after adding the file. No extra configuration file is needed for basic schematic sharing.
Does Syncmatica require Litematica?
Litematica is optional at the mod level, but the schematic sharing interface only appears through Litematica's placement menus. Without Litematica installed on the client, Syncmatica will run but provide no visible controls. Install Litematica on each client to access the full workflow.
Does Syncmatica need to be installed on the server?
Yes. Syncmatica must be present in the server mods folder as well as on each client. The server install stores and distributes schematic data to connected clients. The server does not need Litematica; only clients use the Litematica UI for uploading and downloading placements.
Which Minecraft versions does Syncmatica support?
Syncmatica supports Minecraft Java Edition from 1.16.5 through 1.21.11 on Fabric and Quilt. The Modrinth releases page lists every available build by version so you can match the correct JAR to your server before installing.
Is Syncmatica compatible with Quilt?
Yes. Syncmatica releases target both Fabric and Quilt. Download the appropriate JAR from Modrinth and place it in the mods folder alongside your other Quilt mods. Litematica and MaLiLib are also available for Quilt if you need them.
