| Environment | Client, Server |
Syncmatica is a Fabric 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 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 to Share a Litematica Schematic in Multiplayer
Sharing happens entirely in-game once Syncmatica is running on the server and Litematica is installed on each client. Litematica's placement menu gains a share option that uploads a placement to the server, and every other connected player can pull it down from there.
- 1.On the client, open the placement you want to share from Litematica's Placements menu.
- 2.Hold Shift and select that placement to upload it to the Syncmatica server store.
- 3.Other players open the Server Placements screen from Litematica's menu to browse everything shared on that server.
- 4.They select the schematic there to download it and place it locally, no external file host or manual transfer needed.
Compatibility and Dependencies
- Loaders: Fabric
- Minecraft versions: 1.16.5 through 26.2
- 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. Quilt builds exist too, but the newest one stops at Minecraft 1.20.1 (2023) and has not been updated since, so Fabric is the loader to use on anything current.

Questions about Syncmatica.
7 questions
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 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 the current 26.2 release on Fabric. 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?
Not currently. Syncmatica shipped Quilt builds through 2023, but the newest one only reaches Minecraft 1.20.1 and has not been updated since. Fabric is the actively maintained loader, with builds current through 26.2.
How do I share a schematic with Syncmatica?
Hold Shift and select a placement in Litematica's Placements menu to upload it to the server through Syncmatica. Any other player on that server can then open the Server Placements screen and download the schematic directly, with no file host or manual transfer involved. Both players need Litematica and Syncmatica installed on their clients, and the server needs Syncmatica running too.
Is Litematica client side only?
Yes, Litematica itself is a client-side mod, so a single player can place and preview schematics with no server component at all. Syncmatica adds the missing server-side half: install it on the server plus Litematica and Syncmatica on each client, and the group can upload and download shared placements instead of only viewing their own local schematics.
