About
Better Questing is a modular quest-authoring system for Minecraft pack creators, providing in-game editors to build anything from simple task lists to themed storylines spanning multiple dimensions; it does not include premade quests. Authors can organize quests into chapters and visual quest trees, write story and instructions, define task and reward requirements, and set dependencies and visibility rules that reveal, hide, or unlock quests as players progress. Players can browse quest lines, track progress, collect rewards for completed quests, and form parties to work on objectives together; optional hardcore lives can be shared among party members. The system also offers quest-completion notifications, automatic quest-tree generation, full-screen editing interfaces, and support for localizing quest text through resource packs. Pack makers can customize the quest interface with themes and resource-pack assets, while human-readable JSON makes quest data available to external editors. The base mod supplies the core functionality, while expansions can add task and reward types, themes, and importers for quest data from other mods.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. It contacts 1 web address. See Privacy
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. 3 files in your config folder.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.12 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the one for a recent version. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
- Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.Read without running it
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
Sends your player name
Sent to sessionserver.mojang.com and an address built while the game runs.
We found this in its code, read without running it.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.The code of its one file, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
- sessionserver.mojang.comTalks to an online service the mod works with.Your player name
- Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.Downloads a player skin texture.Explained by AI (may be wrong)Explained by an AI from the code. May be wrong.Your player name
AI
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images, sounds and code history and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
- Code historyThe public code on GitHub: who made each change, credit lines such as "Co-authored-by", and its files.Nothing found
