About
Better Realism is a vanilla-inspired modpack that makes survival feel more lifelike through visual, audio, and environmental changes while retaining Minecraft’s familiar character. Complementary Reimagined and Complementary Unbound shaders, used with Iris and Sodium, provide enhanced lighting and rendering, while Visuality, Falling Leaves, and Ambient Environment add environmental effects such as falling foliage. Sound Physics Remastered and AmbientSounds 6 create more atmospheric soundscapes, and Presence Footsteps, Camera Overhaul, Not Enough Animations, and Better Animations Collection make movement and perspective feel more natural. Immersive Furniture, Beautify: Refabricated, and Ecologics add decor and biome content, while Living Things and Nyf’s Spiders expand the selection of creatures. Better Combat and YDM’s Weapon Master refine combat, and FancyMenu, BetterF3, Controlling, and Pick Up Notifier improve interface and control conveniences. Performance-focused tools including Sodium, Krypton, and FerriteCore help balance the visual effects with smooth play, and shader settings or heavier effects can be adjusted to suit the player’s system.

Security
No harmful code found in its projects
We checked all 141 projects and the files in the pack itself, without running them.
Why we show this: a modpack installs the files of its mods, and each mod runs on your computer like any program. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: a modpack has no grade of its own, and each mod's result counts in that mod's grade.
How we checked
- Its projects141 projects
- Files in the pack itself295 settings files, 1,205 other files, no mod jars.
Privacy
6 mods send something about you
We read the code of all 134 of its mods, without running it.
Why we show this: a modpack runs the code of its mods, and 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
- Go online onlyTheir code contacts a web address, for example to check for updates. We found nothing it sends about you.11 mods
- Crash reports or usage dataTheir author declares crash reports or usage data on Modrinth, or such a service is named in their files. Reading their code did not show it.1 mod
- Send nothingTheir code contacts no web address.117 mods
AI
AI used in 3 of the 118 mods we checked
We found an AI tool in them, or their authors declared AI content.
13 other mods show AI use only from after this release (9 Oct 2026), so it does not apply to the versions in this pack.
16 mods are not checked yet.
No sign so far that AI was used to make the pack itself
We looked for AI tools in its texts and found none.
We have not read its files and images yet.
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.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found2 of 40 changelogs read
- Its filesFiles that AI coding tools leave behind (like AGENTS.md), and the texts inside the files you download.Not read yet
- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Not read yet
