About
Vanilla+ is a vanilla-style data pack that expands the game with more than 300 craftable or discoverable items, designed for singleplayer, Realms, and servers. Its gear includes seven material-based armor sets and matching toolsets, five spears, Turtle Armor with underwater buffs, and Evocation Armor with movement-related effects; materials range from Lapis and Quartz to Amethyst, Nether Star, and Ruby. Players can find the rare Emerald Amulet in Trail Ruin loot for passive Resistance, or the Soul Healer in suspicious sand near Desert Temples for passive Regeneration, with both effects active while the item is held offhand. Custom foods range from simple dishes to complex recipes, sometimes grant effects, and can appear in structure chests or from certain leaves; discovering key ingredients unlocks recipes, and renaming a dish in an anvil can turn it into a 3D displayable item. The pack adds nine named custom dye items and broad color options for books, Elytra, bundles, and beanies, including 36 book colors and 37 Elytra colors plus a feather-crafted wing design. It also adds many hats, including dyeable beanies and designs inspired by Villager accessories, Super Mario Bros., and The Legend of Zelda, as well as material-made Goat Horns that restore removed copper-horn music for playing with friends. Craftable Locked Chests and Barrels require keys found in Stronghold libraries, while wearable mutated mushrooms alter the player's apparent height, from roughly six pixels to five blocks. Additional items include a Crab Claw found in Ocean Ruins that lets players place blocks from farther away, and a Display Case for presenting items in frames or on armor stands. A small advancement tree covers Vanilla+ items, alongside several advancements brought back from Minecraft's older achievement system. The pack also provides Mexican Spanish translations and can be used on Realms as well as singleplayer and servers.

Details
Security
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.
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.7 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. All 7 are 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
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.The internet, folders outside the game, 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
- 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 7 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 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
