About
Der's Shaded Font Plus refreshes Minecraft’s default font by adding colored shading to the lower portions of its glyphs, while retaining the familiar character shapes. It shades more than 10,000 characters, covering common ASCII symbols, the Standard Galactic Alphabet used for enchanting, illager glyphs, accented and ligatured letters, circled characters, and extensive Unicode language and symbol pages. The pack includes several visual treatments, including its reshaded default and configurable legacy, rose, light-green, grayscale, and opal pastel-rainbow styles. Optional Respackopts settings let users adjust font features such as word spacing, enable or disable individual parts, and access additional styles and other experimental options; without it, the pack uses its default configuration. Additional features include shaded enchanting particles, support for Wynncraft’s item tooltips and Hypixel symbols, and Hypixel-specific text-color and Bazaar graph fixes. It also offers mod guide-book font support and Big Sign Writer compatibility, with some features intended for use alongside the relevant mods or server-pack tools.

Security
No harmful code found
We checked what is inside its files, without opening them in the game.
Why we show this: a resource pack cannot run programs, but its file can hide one. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade.
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.3 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the one for a recent version. 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
- 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
Sends nothing
A resource pack has no code that can connect to the internet, so it cannot send anything about you.
AI
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI. 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.
