Since all modifications that are on this list are susceptible to change. It is a fair assumption that aint mod that is used to provide a serious unfair advantage is to be confirmed by Admin+ before using. Please also note that using modifications listed and not listed are to be used at your own risk.

Modification Guidelines
What is and isn't allowed?
​

The best thing to remember when selecting a modification that will edit your client is, any modification that allows you to have an unfair advantage over other users is not allowed. This is mainly handled by Staff Discretion but common sense should cover most of these situations. Modifications that change the way your user or client sends data to the server is also not allowed! This is even included if the mod is in the allowed section.


Below are general client modification types that are not explicitly on the allowed list given the amount of mods that provide these modifications being too saturated to list each specific one.


General Categories of Allowed Modifications (Applicable to Vanilla Network)

► Client performance improvement modifications (e.g. Optifine, Sodium)
► Aesthetic modifications (e.g. Shaders, Graphics Overhauls)
► Armor and Effect Status HUD modifications
► Brightness and gamma adjustment modifications. (e.g Fullbright)
► Minimap modifications (Must NOT display players or entities)
► Visual tweaks that help with aiming at players hitboxes easier
► Cinematic or “Content” mods (e.g. Replay Mod)

If a mod is not on this list that you believe doesn’t provide an unfair advantage, please make a ticket on our Discord
