About
The Winter Rescue: Frosted Heart is the core mod for The Winter Rescue modpack, providing most of its content and gameplay systems; it is designed to be played with the full pack, since features and recipes may be incomplete on its own. Set in a world plunged into a prolonged winter, the experience centers on surviving the cold, exploring Earth, researching lost technology, and rebuilding human life. Its temperature simulation accounts for heat reflection and convection, with distance from heat sources, shelter, insulation, and airflow affecting the warmth of a space, while shifting fronts and blizzards bring changing temperatures, poor visibility, and risks to heating equipment. Players develop a steam-powered industrial base through research, using drawing desks, research papers, and mechanical calculators to unlock machinery, recipes, and better ways to stay warm. The steam network includes generators, heat pipes, radiators, chargers for cooking and backpack heating, and saunas and baths that restore inspiration. Beyond temperature and technology, the mod adds agriculture, fungal reproduction, specialty foods and plants, decorative blocks, and tools such as ore detectors, hand warmers, incineration modules, and heated vests. Its custom soup cooking content includes soup pots and crock pots, supporting meals made from crops and animal products.

Security
No harmful code found
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. 6 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.2 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the one for a recent version. 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 about you
We read its code without running it: it contacts 2 web addresses 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 its one file, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
- server.teammoeg.comChecks for a new version of the mod.Unencrypted (http)Plain http: what is sent to this address is not encrypted on the way.Explained by AI (may be wrong)Explained by an AI from the code. May be wrong.
- Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.Checks for a new version of the mod.Explained by AI (may be wrong)Explained by an AI from the code. May be wrong.
AI
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.
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.
