About
Habitat expands the Overworld’s existing biomes with plants, unusual vegetation, and wildlife rather than adding new biomes in the described content. Its additions include Rafflesia and Anthuriums in jungles, Kabloom bushes in plains, Slime Ferns in Slime Chunks below Y=40, four colored Ball Cacti in deserts and badlands, Edelweiss shrubs in cold mountains, and Dreadbuds in roofed forests. Rafflesia releases a poison cloud when an entity touches it, and a suspicious stew can change the cloud’s effect. Fully grown Kabloom bushes drop fruit that explodes when disturbed, while thrown fruit also bursts, dealing damage and knockback; its pulp can be eaten or brewed into Blast Endurance potions. Ball Cacti grow through several stages, prick entities on contact, and yield flowers and cactus that can be used to make suspicious stews or brewed into Prickling potions. Slime Ferns mark Slime Chunks with dripping slime particles, can grow when bonemeal is used in those chunks, and can be placed on walls, ceilings, or floors. Rare Fairy Rings of mushrooms generate in dark forests, including huge mushrooms, and host Pooka, hostile rabbit-like mobs that can inflict negative effects and gain beneficial ones when hurt. Players can pacify Pooka with golden carrots; pacified Pooka follow players holding food and can sometimes grant them a beneficial effect. Passerines, or songbirds, inhabit forests, birch forests, taigas, jungles, flower forests, savannas, and groves, with variants that fly and sing by day, sleep in trees at night, and shelter from rain or snow. Compatibility adds practical crafting and gameplay links: Enhanced Mushrooms can make Fairy Ring Mushroom stems into a wood set, Farmer’s Delight treats the mushrooms as compost activators, and Abnormals Core advancement modifiers recognize Habitat’s added foods, effects, and mobs.
Written from Modrinth and CurseForge . How we write it
In-game changes
Changes the game's code in 2 areas: World generationChanges 3 game code files in this area: terrain, biomes and structures made when new land is created. and Mobs and their behaviorChanges 1 game code file in this area: mobs, animals, villagers, projectiles and how they move and act..
Adds 47 blocks, 8 items, 2 mobs, 1 boat, 1 other entity, 1 structure, 33 recipes, 5 advancements, 2 loot tables and 29 sounds.
Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.
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.
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.10 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.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
- 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
- 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, 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.No AI content or AI features declared.
- 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 found5 of 40 changelogs read

- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Nothing found115 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 found26 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 file145 code files read
