Data-driven utility to create custom powers and ingame content
69.3 of the 71 points that apply = 98 out of 100. The points above are rounded to whole numbers.
Palladium is a data-driven Minecraft mod and framework for creating custom superpowers and in-game content through addon packs. Creators can define powers as collections of abilities that work directly on players or are bound to items and suit sets, with unlocking and activation conditions that can make abilities depend on player state or on other abilities. Powers can also use configurable energy bars to represent and spend energy, with values that can be synchronized to scoreboards or Palladium properties. Addon packs can contribute custom items, blocks, creative tabs, suit sets, recipes, and other data and resource-pack content, with textures, models, loot tables, and armor rendering configured alongside them. Armor can use custom or skin-type-specific models and textures, attach render layers such as glowing overlays, and change appearance as an openable piece moves through its opening animation. Dynamic textures can select image variants based on entity state, such as crouching, and apply ordered transformations like overlays, allowing addon creators to build responsive visual effects. The framework supports community content such as Alien Evolution, which adds Ben 10-inspired alien transformations with distinct moves and playstyles, and Arrzee's Superhero Multiverse, which features suits and powers from Enhanced SMP.

Adds:
Counted from the files of the mod. Content made only in its code is not counted.
Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.
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.
Sends crash reports
Sent to api.mclo.gs.
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.
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.
Point at or tap a version to see its loaders.
These projects do not work together with Palladium: their authors or Palladium's author say so. If you install both, the game can crash or some features can stop working. Some of them do the same job as Palladium, so you only need one.
