About
Distantly Optimized is a modpack built around Distant Horizons and Iris, designed to let you see far beyond the normal render distance with shaderpacks that support distant terrain. It includes Tectonic for world generation using vanilla blocks, alongside utility mods, and ships with Distant Horizons-compatible shader options including Bliss and Photon. Expect expansive views across varied landscapes, including mountain ranges, valleys, open terrain, coasts, and coastal villages. The pack is intended to be lightweight and work on servers, and Distant Horizons quality, render distance, and shader settings can be adjusted to suit your system.

Security
No harmful code found in the projects we checked
We checked all 16 projects, without running them.
We have not checked the files in the pack itself yet (settings, scripts).
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 projects16 projects
- Files in the pack itselfNot checked yet.
- 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.
Privacy
Its mods send nothing about you
We read the code of all 15 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.4 mods
- Send nothingTheir code contacts no web address.11 mods
AI
AI used in 1 of the 14 mods we checked
We found an AI tool in it, or its author declared AI content.
1 mod is 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, images and code history 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.
- Code historyThe public code on GitHub: who made each change, credit lines such as "Co-authored-by", and its files.Not read yet
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found15 of 38 changelogs read
