About
RandomTweaks is a configurable collection of small, vanilla-compatible changes to Minecraft rather than a mod that adds new items, blocks or enchantments; clients with the mod can join vanilla servers, and vanilla clients can join servers running it. Its animal tweaks include randomized sheep colors and animal ages, leashable villagers, healing tamed ocelots with fish and parrots with seeds, and protection from damage dealt by their owners or the owners’ other pets. Other creature and loot options include configurable squid spawning, leather drops from bats, player heads on death, name tags from named entities, mob equipment and loot drops, and creepers that can be sheared and made non-hostile. World and survival changes include Realistic, Void and Void Islands world types, configurable ocean-floor clay, dirt and sand generation, and options to adjust hunger, damage, sleeping near mobs, and mob spawning. Small gameplay adjustments include using bone meal on cacti, sugar cane and nether wart, Infinity bows firing without an arrow in the player’s inventory, maps updating while stored in an inventory, wet sponges drying in the Nether, and armor swapping with armor stands. Client-side conveniences include a toggleable day-and-time overlay, sound-system reloading, optional underwater-fog removal, potion-particle controls, step-up movement, and automatic third-person view while riding or using an elytra. Additional visual and interface options cover potion effects and night-vision flashing, armor sounds in the inventory, creative-tab organization, localized names for portal structures, and expanded Roman-numeral labels for enchantments and potions. Commands and gamerules add controls such as /disconnect, /hunger, and commands to reload the mod’s configuration, along with options for damage multipliers and disabling Nether portal creation. Features are configurable through files or the in-game configuration GUI, and many have unobtrusive defaults or disable themselves when another mod provides similar functionality.

No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.10 to 1.12.2.
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. 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. 2 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.4 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.

We found nothing it sends about you
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.10 to 1.12.2.
We read its code without running it: it contacts 1 web address while you play.
Like any connection, each address it contacts sees your IP address.
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 4 files, for Minecraft 1.10 to 1.12.2. See each file in Releases
- raw.githubusercontent.comDownloads the contributor list.Explained by AI (may be wrong)Explained by an AI from the code. May be wrong.
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.
