Transponder Snails brings One Piece’s Den Den Mushi into Minecraft as a way for players to make voice calls across the world using Simple Voice Chat. Den Den Mushi spawn in the world, especially around forests, jungles and beaches; their body and shell colors vary, adults can be picked up and bred with kelp, and rarer white and horned varieties add distinct crafting and cosmetic options. Players craft adult snails into calling devices, which receive a unique four-digit number on first use; dialing another number makes its snail ring, and right-clicking it answers or ends the call. Connected calls use Simple Voice Chat with an optional phone-style audio filter, and players nearby a placed snail can hear both sides of an active call. Snails can be dyed in any of Minecraft’s 16 standard colors, changing the shell while leaving the body color and the device’s number and function intact. The mod also adds black snails for intercepting nearby calls: baby models offer shorter-range handheld tapping, while adult models can be placed and wired to lightning rods to extend their reach. White Transponder Snails can be wired to a transmitter-equipped calling snail to protect its side of a call from interception; their appearance changes when idle, protecting a call or blocking a tap. Server settings can adjust calling and interception ranges, audio filtering, and creature spawn rates, group sizes, dimensions and biomes.
Written from Modrinth . How we write it
Does not change the game's code directly.
Adds 8 blocks, 19 items, 5 mobs, 20 recipes, 9 sounds and 1 key binding.
Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.
Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.
No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
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.
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.
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.
Point at or tap a version to see its loaders.
Modpacks that include Transponder Snails in at least one of their versions, most downloaded first.
The newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The files for recent versions come first. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks.
In the last 2 years, 2 releases needed a quick fix: a new release within 3 days to fix a problem. This lowers the grade by 2 points.
