About
Forgery is a configurable collection of vanilla tweaks and small features for Forge, adapting Fabrication while letting players and server operators choose which changes to enable. Its options span bug fixes, balance changes, experiments, utility and quality-of-life adjustments, from clickable Markdown styling in chat and readable sign colors to fixes for portal rendering and mob behavior. It also adds or alters gameplay mechanics, including note blocks that can play when landed on or work with blocks above them, observers that detect moving entities, and tridents that can toggle levers or return from the Void. Other examples adjust survival and world interactions: campfires can cook or ignite entities, moss can spread to nearby stone with bone meal, and crying obsidian can serve as an automatable spawn point. The collection can also change familiar rules and conveniences, such as allowing furnace minecarts to use any furnace fuel, extracting furnace experience by clicking the empty output slot, and transferring disenchantments onto a book with a grindstone. Configuration includes categories ranging from vanilla-fitting tweaks and bug fixes to opinionated changes and more experimental or deliberately cheat-friendly options.

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. 1 file in your config folder.
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. No web address is written in its code. See Privacy
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.9 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
We found nothing it sends about you
We read its code without running it: it contacts 1 web address while you play.
Like any connection, each address it contacts sees your IP address.
Its files for older Minecraft versions (1.16.3 to 1.16.5) also send unknown data.
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
- Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.Purpose not known.
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
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found40 changelogs read
- Its filesFiles that AI coding tools leave behind (like AGENTS.md), and the texts inside the files you download.Nothing found
- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Nothing found28 images read
- Sounds in its filesThe tags of the sound files in the files you download, where some AI music tools write their name.Nothing found3 sounds read
- Code of the modThe code and files of the mod, read without running it: addresses of AI services, AI libraries, AI model files and a place for your own AI key.No AI service, AI library or AI model file673 code files read
