The following is a list of Minecraft modifications deemed safe, approved, and fair to use by Viacraft staff. This is NOT an exhaustive list; just because it's not listed here doesn't automatically mean it's not allowed. Please consult a member of Management if you wonder if a mod you're using not listed here is allowed or not.

  • Optifine, Sodium, Lithium, etc - mods that improves FPS and game performance.

  • Iris/Shaders - mods which make the game more visually pleasing but do not make blocks transparent.

  • Jade, 5zig, and HUD (Heads Up Display). Mods which display information already available to you but in a more quick glance way. Because donors have /invsee, I also declare that mods which reveal the health of an opponent's armor and tools is allowed.

  • Minimaps and recording of the world from "satellite view" is allowed but you are asked out of courtesy not to use underground viewing features. If it is able to show specific elements of the world such as buried chest (similar to x-ray and esp) it is completely not allowed. If a staff member sees you dig straight down to things of value w/o obvious prior knowledge, they have the right to ban you for xray; regardless if you were using minimap or actual xray.

  • Brightness and gamma modifications.

  • Fabric, Forge, and Liteloader by itself, obviously. Any mod which serves only as mod loader or API library.

  • Badlion Client

  • Litematica and Schematica. Use of modifications that simplify/automate the time consuming process of building (similar to WorldEdit) are allowed. However mods that automate resource gathering and farming (e.g. Baritone) are strictly forbidden.

  • NEW! Auto clickers are allowed because like with gamma modifications, its nearly impossible to detect/prevent as implementation can be at a vanilla or even hardware level. This enters the territory of macros which I will now declare are allowed for the same reasons. Keep in mind though, anything which is spammy, causes too many packets, or creates lag is not allowed.

  • NEW! Auto Reconnect - Mods that will automatically reconnect you to the server if kicked as long as its not used to spam/DoS.

  • NEW! No Chat Reports - Because of Viacraft's stance on Mojang chat reports, it should be pretty obvious this mod is allowed. However, you may NOT use its encryption feature to bypass/circumvent Viacraft staff's ability to moderate chat or otherwise send spammy gibberish in chat.

  • NEW! ContainerSearcher / Chest Tracker - Software which creates cache/record of what was in a storage container you opened for quick lookup and retrieval is allowed.

  • NEW! EMI/JEI, Inventory Tweaks - mods which pull information from the Minecraft Wiki or simplify crafting are allowed.

Chunk downloader and mods that take a playable snapshot of the world for offline use is NOT allowed because players can use this data to x-ray offline and to steal builds to claim as theirs'.
