About
Variant16x: Oh the Biomes You'll Go expands Oh the Biomes You'll Go with more than 490 block variants, filling out building and furnishing options for blocks that otherwise lack them. Its additions cover BYG woods and hyphae, including Aspen, Baobab, Cherry, Redwood, Bulbis, Embur, and Sythian, as well as stone and decorative materials such as black and blue sandstone, mud bricks, dacite, scoria, soapstone, and Nether bricks. Depending on the material, variants include slabs, stairs, walls, fences, fence gates, pressure plates, and buttons; most wood and hyphae types receive the full set of slab, stair, fence, fence-gate, pressure-plate, and button forms. Wood and hyphae variants can be stripped with an axe, and their behavior also reflects their material: wood variants can be flammable and usable as furnace fuel, while pressure plates and buttons behave like their vanilla wooden or stone counterparts. Configuration lets players toggle additions by variant type and/or group.

Security
No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.15.2 to 1.16.5.
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- 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
- 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.The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.15.2 to 1.16.5.
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 4 files, for Minecraft 1.15.2 to 1.16.5. See each file in Releases
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its description, files and images 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.
