About
Lycanites Mobs expands Minecraft with more than 100 creatures distributed across biomes, dimensions, and other environments, from peaceful, farmable Makas to shadow-dwelling Grues and elementals such as fire-born Cinders and plant-dwelling Spriggans. Its creature roster spans elementals, beasts, plants, birds, arthropods, dragons, worms, aquatic creatures, aberrations, undead, imps, and demons, with examples including Wargs, Vespids, Morocks, Lacedons, Reapers, and Nether-dwelling Cacodemons. Creatures can drop parts that players combine in an Equipment Forge to make distinctive tools and weapons, while a Beastiary supports learning about the mobs. Players can tame mounts such as Wargs and bind them with Soulstones to summon, dismiss, or bring them back after death, or use Summoning Staffs and Pedestals to call minions for combat or base defense. The mod adds configurable, randomized dungeons with challenging floors and bosses, plus optional events that send waves of mobs and major summonable bosses such as Rahovart, Asmodeus, and Amalgalich. JSON configuration lets players customize creature spawning and dungeons, including controlling spawns from vanilla Minecraft or other mods. Creature models can be supplied through resource packs, including the Lycanites Mobs Redux pack, which reimagines the mobs in a blocky style.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Uses folders outside the game
- It can read or write files outside your Minecraft folder, on the rest of your computer. Found: your user folder.
- 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. 4 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.16 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
- 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.Other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
Sends system details
Sent to service.lycanitesmobs.com.
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
- service.lycanitesmobs.comTalks to the mod's own online service. Checks for a new version of the mod.System details (operating system, Java version)
- 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 and sounds 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.
