    About

    Simple Datapacks makes it easier to add and manage datapacks by loading them from configurable folders, including the game's datapacks and downloads folders by default when the relevant configuration support is available. You can mark packs as required so they are applied when entering a world, or keep them optional and enable them later; the mod can also hide experimental feature packs from the selection screen. On servers, it automatically uses datapacks in the datapacks folder, and an option can copy packs into a world so they continue working even if the mod is later disabled.

    Written from Modrinth . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Changes the game's code in 4 areas: Game data and resourcesChanges 3 game code files in this area: recipes, tags, advancements, language files and other game data., Server and world logicChanges 2 game code files in this area: the world, commands, scoreboards, saved data and game rules., User interfaceChanges 1 game code file in this area: menus, screens, tooltips, the chat window and the in-game overlay. and Other game codeChanges 1 game code file in this area: game code that is not in one of the areas above..

    Adds no new blocks, items or other content.

    Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    The author declares on Modrinth that this mod interacts with your system outside the game.

    See the Modrinth page

    What it can do on your computer

    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 and your Downloads.
    Creates settings files
    The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them.

    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 · All 19 latest files checked, last on 16 Oct 2026
    • 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.
      19 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 11 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
    • Uses folders outside the game
      Uses Downloads.
    • Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.
      The internet, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    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 · All 11 files read
    • 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 11 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 that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and code history 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.

    How we checked · 6 places read
