About
RandomPatches is a configurable collection of Minecraft bug fixes and quality-of-life patches, focused on correcting vanilla issues and making otherwise hardcoded settings adjustable rather than adding major new game mechanics. It can extend connection timeouts and packet-size limits, and raise configurable player, elytra, and vehicle speed limits to reduce disconnects, rubber-banding, and movement-related log spam. Its gameplay fixes include improving boat buoyancy in flowing water and preventing underwater passengers from being ejected, stopping mobs from moving minecarts with their AI, and fixing issues with entity bounding boxes, duplicate UUIDs, and player-head stacking. Other fixes address recipe-book ingredients with NBT data, animal breeding-heart particles, mobs crossing rails, boat fall damage, and entities not being treated as wet in water-filled cauldrons. Client-side improvements include rendering End portals from below as well as above, restoring missing particle effects, fixing disappearing player models and villager robe textures, and making cauldron water translucent. The mod also offers practical adjustments such as smoother eye-level transitions, configurable window titles and icons, finer framerate-limit increments, narrator and dismount key bindings, and optimized bamboo rendering. Features can be configured individually, and many settings can be changed or applied in-game; the mod is designed so client-only or server-only patches can work without requiring the same mod installation on both sides.
Written from CurseForge and the GitHub README . How we write it
In-game changes
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.8 to 1.16.5.

No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.8 to 1.16.5.
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Only in its files for Forge 1.8 to 1.12.2, 1.16.1 to 1.16.5. See Privacy
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. Only in its files for Forge 1.14.4 to 1.15.2.
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.6 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. 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
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Folders outside the game, other programs, 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 1.8 to 1.16.5.
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 all 6 files, for Minecraft 1.8 to 1.16.5. See each file in Releases
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its description, files, images and code history and found none.
We have not read its changelogs 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.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 found in the descriptionChangelogs not read yet
- Its filesFiles that AI coding tools leave behind (like AGENTS.md), and the texts inside the files you download.Nothing found
- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Nothing found3 images 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 file181 code files read
