Paper
The contents of this page are not supported by Mojang Studios or the Minecraft Wiki. 

Mods (short for modifications) are changes, additions, or deletions to Minecraft that alter the original gameplay. Mods that add new content to the original game are often called partial conversions, while mods that create an entirely new game are called total conversions, and mods that fix bugs are called unofficial patches.

Mods for Minecraft can introduce an entirely new experience and increase the creativity in many different ways, and the Mojang team plans to add an official modding API that allows modders to more easily add content to the game.[1]

Most mods in Minecraft add content to the game to alter gameplay, change the creative feel, or give a player more options in how they interact with the Minecraft world. Some may be bigger expansions, such as the Aether Mod, that add a significant amount of new content to the game. Other mods take away content to create a simpler or more specific gameplay experience. Some mods, such as the Portal Mod, attempt to bring over another game's content, experience, and feel. And still other mods do more technical things such as adding or expanding more settings/options or optimizing the speed, graphics, or gameplay of the game. Server mods or plugins mainly give server admins more options and ease of use, and most mods for single-player have a server version that allows or optimizes the mod in multiplayer.

Ideally, the creator of a Minecraft Mod updates the mod whenever the game updates - bringing more content, bug fixes, or optimizations. Otherwise, the mod may not work with a new version. Many in the Minecraft community appreciate the additional experience and ease of use that come with mods, while others play "vanilla", the original game, with only the original content, and might view mod usage as cheating. While Minecraft mods are generally safe to install, one should exercise caution with mods to prevent crashes, deletion of game or save data, system instability, or potential malware infections from a bad link or the mod itself. There are many mods or plugins available to complement the original Minecraft game or give server admins more options and control over their servers.


Harmful Mods and Mod Safety

Main articles: Harmful Mods and Harmful Mods

Harmful modifications in Minecraft might contain viruses, or can corrupt save files. Potentially harmful mods are usually ones that add things like new blocks. MCedit is usually quite safe, and TooManyItems mod, as they do not change any textures on blocks or add new content, thus no changes to any files or code are made.

Using a modification that was designed for a Minecraft version older than the version you are using can be harmful to your computer or Minecraft program, because they are not designed for that version. e.g. If you downloaded a Minecraft Mod that was designed for version 1.7, and your Minecraft is up-to-date, the modification would not be compatible, and if run on a save file would most likely corrupt the file. But if a mod was designed for 1.8, and you were using 1.8.1, the mod could work, and it could also work on 1.8, and so on. However, you shouldn't rely on mods working if they were created for a different version, and should try to find the most current version.

Mods that only alter the behavior of existing items, blocks, or mobs are fairly safe; they should typically be able to be installed or uninstalled at will without making a world save corrupted. Note that this includes mods that add crafting recipes without adding new items or blocks.

Mods that add content, such as blocks, items or mobs, are riskier to uninstall. Since 1.4, modded content is automatically removed from the world if the mods that added them are not installed, in order to help prevent crashes. This can still cause issues and uncertain behavior, and could ironically cause a crash.

Multiple mods may conflict with each other; certainly if two mods need to alter the same files, then they are unlikely to be compatible.

How to install Mods

Main article: Mods/Installing Mods

Client Mods

Client Mods are modifications to your Minecraft program (Alpha or Beta). They are not custom clients, and require modification of minecraft.jar. Like high resolution textures, they only work with the launchers, and won't work if you play Beta through a browser.

The most common form of client mods are aesthetic and/or functional. However, some client mods add content to the game, and others fix issues with the game. While some do work on SMP, mods that add content, and thus could be used for griefing, do not work, as the server will ignore custom content.

Mod List

Note to people editing this page to post their own mods: Please keep the mods in alphabetical order. Nobody wants to search through an unalphabetized list looking for the mod that has been buried by other people who put their mods at the top of the list. Thank you.

Server Mods

Server Mods are modifications to the official Minecraft server software. They generally fall into two broad categories: management and gameplay.

Management mods are commonly designed to make administration of servers easier by implementing tiered privileges for commands (such as kicking, banning etc.). They are frequently implemented as "wrappers" which do not actually modify the main server .jar file, instead monitoring its output and sending commands to it.

Gameplay mods are modifications to actual game mechanics, such as restricting the placement of blocks commonly abused by Griefers (e.g. lava, TNT), fixing bugs in the server (e.g. making furnaces function before the update of 10th of September 2010) or adding new gameplay features.

Server Operating Systems

Server OS' are often Linux distributions specifically built to host a Minecraft server.

They are built to ease the burden for Minecraft server administrators by providing tools to manage deployment & maintenance.

MineOS

MineOS is a Linux distribution aimed at creating the smallest possible environment for a Minecraft server to run, retaining all Minecraft customizability and functionality while increasing usability. It is primarily designed at being run within a virtual environment (such as Virtualbox/VMWare) though it can be installed directly as the host OS of a computer as well. It is a fork of the Tiny Core Linux project 'microcore'. This has been replaced by MineOS CRUX
