About
PVPUtils is a client-side utility mod that combines practical Minecraft PvP and survival aids, visual customization, and client optimizations in one configurable package. Its combat and target tools include hit markers and configurable hit sounds, target information with attack-distance display, and elytra aids that can automatically deploy equipped wings when jumping and use held fireworks when a boost is inactive. HUD components include armor and durability, potion effects, target status, keystrokes and click speed, block counts and placement speed, and mining progress with estimated time remaining; an editor lets players reposition and resize elements. Visual options add classic sword-blocking and item-use animations, configurable attack effects and hit colors, dynamic motion blur, adjustable brightness, and controls for effects such as first-person fire, fog, vignette, hurt shake, explosion particles, rain, and floating enchanting-table books. Other gameplay tools predict fall damage, automate sprinting and fishing-rod use, quickly deposit held items into containers, provide zoom controls, and can save a screenshot automatically after a win. Interface and chat features include smooth hotbar scrolling, improved chat behavior and animated messages, player heads beside chat, configurable dark or light HUD themes with blur, and Chinese or English interface text. The mod also includes performance and client-bug fixes, including an in-game fix for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean input methods that can otherwise interfere with controls. It is designed to work alongside other mods, though some rendering optimizations may conflict with its low-level performance features.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Records from your microphone
- It can record sound from a microphone. Voice chat mods do this. Found in tritonus-all, a library it includes.
- Can download and run new code
- The same part of the code can download data and run it as code. Auto-updaters do this, and so does malware. Found in jna, a library it includes.Not a Warning: we read its code and found no code downloaded over http or run without a check.
- Accepts connections from other computers
- It can accept connections from other computers.
- 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, your Desktop, application data and the temporary files folder.
- Starts other programs
- It can start another program on your computer. Found in the mod's own code and in 3 libraries it includes.
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Found in the mod's own code and in 14 libraries it includes. 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.2 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. Both are 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.
- Records from your microphoneRecords with the sound tools built into Java.
- Accepts connections from other computersRuns a small web server.
- Uses folders outside the gameUses Desktop.Uses the system folder for application data.Uses the temporary files folder.
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Updating itself, an AI service.
Privacy
Sends data we could not identify
Sent to login.live.com.
Only some of its files send data we could not identify.
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 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 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.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.Not read yet
