About
OpenBlocks Reopened is a maintained fork of OpenBlocks that fixes longstanding bugs and adds quality-of-life changes and features to the original collection of practical, miscellaneous blocks and items. Its building and travel tools include dyeable elevators, a Jaded Ladder that combines a ladder with a trapdoor, a self-sizing rope ladder, construction guide blocks, map-display light boxes, colored flags, and paths. For exploration and survival, it offers hang gliders, sleeping bags that let players sleep without resetting their spawn point, luggage that follows as a sentient chest, player graves that safeguard belongings and store experience, and a wearable crane for lifting blocks and entities. Other utilities cover crop growth and resource handling, including sprinklers, liquid tanks, sponges, item cannons, vacuum hoppers that collect items and experience, and fans that move things with airflow. Redstone and automation options include the BIG BUTTON touch sensor, block breakers and placers, an XP drain that converts experience into liquid, and an Auto Anvil and Auto Enchantment Table that use liquid XP to work automatically. Players can also use archery targets, bear traps, odd-effect trophies, sonic goggles, a village-border highlighter, a slime-chunk detector, XP bottling, magnet turtles, and a creative-only healer that restores health and food while a player stands on it. A block-painting system lets players mix paint from dyes and milk, brush canvases and other blocks, apply patterns with stencils made at a Drawing Table, and remove paint with a squeegee; the Donation Station identifies which mod an item or block comes from. The reopened fork also stores player experience in graves, improves hang-glider deployment and rain checks, adds elevator and luggage configuration options, increases XP draining speed while sneaking on an XP Drain, and gives sprinklers sounds and the ability to moisturize farmland.

No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.12.2.
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Starts other programs
- It can start another program on your computer. It can open a web link or a file.
- 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.
- 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 address written in the code is contacted by the code that runs. 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.1 latest file. It is not for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about it. 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
- Uses folders outside the gameUses the temporary files folder.
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.12.2.
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 its one file, for Minecraft 1.12.2. See each file in Releases
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and sounds 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.
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.Not read yet
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found8 changelogs read
