    About

    BetterPokeBroadcaster is a configurable Pixelmon mod that sends chat broadcasts when Pokémon events match configured specifications. It can report Pokémon spawning, being captured, or despawning, and is designed to be extended with additional event triggers. Included broadcast examples cover shiny and legendary spawns, as well as legendary defeats and captures; webhook settings can also be configured alongside broadcasts.

    Written from CurseForge . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Does not change the game's code directly.

    Adds no new blocks, items or other content.

    Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    What it can do on your computer

    Accepts connections from other computers
    It can accept connections from other computers.
    Uses folders outside the game
    It can read or write files outside your Minecraft folder, on the rest of your computer. Found: the temporary files folder, your user folder and application data.
    Starts other programs
    It can start another program on your computer. It can read system or hardware information.
    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 5 web addresses. See Privacy
    Can download and run new code
    The same part of the code can download data and run it as code. Auto-updaters do this, and so does malware. Only in its files for Forge 1.20.1.Not a Warning: we read its code and found no code downloaded over http or run without a check.

    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 · All 4 latest files checked, last on 16 Oct 2026
    • 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.
      4 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 2 for recent versions. 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.

    Privacy

    Sends unknown data

    Sent to an address built while the game runs.

    Only some of its files send unknown data.

    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 · Both files read
    • 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 both files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
    • Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.
      Purpose not known.
      Unknown data

    AI

    No sign so far that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.

    We have not read its code history yet.

    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.
