About
New Simple Mods is a modpack for players who want to broaden a mostly vanilla Minecraft experience with approachable additions rather than complex magic or technology systems. It adds quality-of-life and atmosphere features through mods such as Advancement Plaques, Better Advancements, Falling Leaves, Ambient Environment, and AmbientSounds, alongside new landscapes from Biomes O’ Plenty. The world gains more than a hundred animals, including content from Alex’s Mobs, plus structures from Additional Structures, Awesome Dungeons, Medieval Buildings, and YUNG’s mods. New threats include Hunter’s Return and the mutants of Mutant Monsters, while Macaw’s mods and MrCrayfish’s Furniture provide options for decorating builds. For multiplayer, the pack includes PlayerRevive, Simple Voice Chat, and YDM’s Weapon Master, and it supports shaders through Oculus and other mods.

Security
No harmful code found in its projects
We checked all 279 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 projects279 projects
- Files in the pack itself873 settings files, 1,631 other files, 29 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.

9 mods send something about you
We read the code of all 268 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.18 mods

Permanent SpongesNo 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
