About
DB's Minecraft REFINED is a mostly client-side modpack designed to polish vanilla Minecraft rather than substantially change its gameplay. It improves performance across areas including world generation, entity culling, memory use, and text rendering, while adding animated inventory interactions and smoother item movement and scrolling. Blooming Biosphere enriches existing biomes and adds new ones without introducing blocks or items, with features such as fallen logs and taller trees in forests and bushes in plains. Explorify adds vanilla-style structures including campsites, dark forest settlements, and taverns. Visual and environmental details include more natural rain and snow, water ripples, humid-biome ground fog, and desert dust storms, as well as 3D crops, ladders, doors, vines, glow lichen, rails, lanterns, and chains. Resource packs add variations in flower appearance and grass height, while other additions include water wakes behind boats, mobs, and players, and enhanced advancement and enchanted-item displays.

No harmful code found in its projects
We checked all 74 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 projects74 projects
- Files in the pack itself297 settings files, 1 resource, shader or data pack, 296 other files, 2 mod jars.
- 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.

6 mods send something about you
We read the code of all 63 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.3 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.54 mods
AI
AI used in 6 of the 63 mods we checked
We found an AI tool in them, or their authors declared AI content.
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.No AI content declared.
