    About

    Default Options lets modpack creators distribute a ready-to-use client setup without replacing players’ existing settings on every pack update. Creators can capture game options, keybindings and a multiplayer server list together or separately, so a fresh installation can start with configured gameplay, interface and graphics settings, preferred controls, and a curated list of servers. Packaged keybinds act as defaults: players’ existing changes are preserved, while new or previously unseen bindings can receive the pack’s settings. The mod can also select resource packs on first launch, though the packs themselves must be included separately, and can set the default difficulty for newly created worlds. Built-in support covers OptiFine and ViveCraft option files, while files for other mods, such as JourneyMap, can be supplied in an extra folder that mirrors their paths in the Minecraft directory. These defaults are prepared in a dedicated folder for the modpack and apply when the corresponding files are absent, leaving players’ existing files and later changes intact.

    Written from Modrinth and the GitHub README . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Changes the game's code in 2 areas: Game optionsChanges 2 game code files in this area: settings, key bindings and the option screens. and Game coreChanges 2 game code files in this area: the main loop, lighting and other code the whole game uses..

    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

    Creates settings files
    The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. Only in its files for Fabric 1.20 to 1.21.1, 26.1.2 to 26.3; NeoForge 1.21.1, 26.1.2 to 26.3; Forge 1.20 to 1.21.1.

    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 86 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.
      86 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 38 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.
      Read without running it
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.
      Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
    • Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.
      The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    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 · All 38 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 all 38 files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.
      Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.

    AI

    No sign that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images, code history and pull requests 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.
