Content Rules

Last modified: October 17, 2026

These Content Rules are part of our Terms of Use and apply to all User Contributions, Gaming Content (e.g., mods, modpacks), and use of interactive features (profiles, posts, comments; collectively, "Content") on Modifold (modifold.com and api.modifold.com).

If you find violations of these rules, please report them using the Report button or email us at [email protected].

1. Prohibited Content

Content must comply with all applicable laws and must not:

  • Be defamatory, obscene, indecent, abusive, offensive, harassing, violent, hateful, inflammatory or otherwise objectionable
  • Promote sexually explicit or pornographic material, violence, or discrimination based on race, sex, gender, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age
  • Infringe any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other intellectual property rights
  • Violate the legal rights (e.g., publicity or privacy) of others
  • Promote illegal activity or assist unlawful acts
  • Contain intentionally false or misleading claims
  • Impersonate any person or misrepresent identity/affiliation
  • Suggest endorsement by Modifold, Hytale developers or any other entity (unless true)
  • Contain excessive profanity
  • Upload data to remote servers without clear user disclosure and consent
  • Attempt to bypass game restrictions or protections implemented by Hytale developers

2. Clear and Honest Description

Projects, a form of Content, must make a clear and honest attempt to describe their purpose in designated areas on the project page. Necessary information must not be obscured in any way or use confusing language or technical jargon when it is unnecessary.

Important project details must always be described accurately and appropriately.

Every project must clearly and honestly describe:

  • What exactly the project does or adds
  • Why someone might want to use it
  • All important information the user should know before downloading

Requirements for descriptions:

  • Must have a plain-text version (images/videos are welcome as addition, but cannot replace text)
  • Use proper markdown formatting (headers, lists, etc.)
  • Main description should be in English (additional languages are welcome)

3. Cheats, Hacks & Unfair Advantage

Projects must not:

  • Be advertised as cheats/hacks
  • Provide unfair advantage in multiplayer without server-side opt-out
  • Include (but not limited to):
    • X-ray / cave finder
    • Kill aura / aim assist / auto-clicker
    • Flight / speed / no-clip / other movement cheats
    • Item duplication / infinite resources
    • Automatic combat / PvP assistance

Such features are allowed only when they are server-side plugins/mods with explicit opt-in.

4. Copyright & Re-uploads

  • You must own the content or have all necessary rights/permissions
  • Direct re-uploads of other people's work without explicit permission are prohibited
  • Forks and substantial modifications are allowed if they follow the original license and give proper credit
  • Gallery images must be relevant to the project and must not give a false impression of the project's contents

5. Good Practices (strongly recommended)

  • Fill in all metadata accurately and consistently, including license, environment information, tags, and required notices
  • Fill in all applicable notices accurately and keep them up to date
  • Use clean project titles (without spam, version numbers, emojis in title)
  • Keep short description concise and without formatting
  • Specify correct dependencies
  • Use "Additional files" only for truly supplementary materials

6. Use of AI

Code and Text

Using AI to write code, debug, translate, or prepare project descriptions is allowed. We assess the result, not the tools used to create it. The proportion of AI-generated code or text is not, by itself, a reason to reject a project.

Authors must check the result before publishing and remain responsible for the project's functionality, safety, accurate description, and rights to the materials they use. Using AI does not excuse malicious behavior, misleading claims, or publishing unchecked output.

Images and Project Presentation

AI-generated or generatively edited images are prohibited in project presentation. This includes:

  • project icons and covers;
  • gallery images;
  • illustrations and banners in project descriptions.

Use actual in-game screenshots or your own graphics, such as logos, diagrams, and compositions. Professional artwork is not required: a simple design you make yourself is welcome. Screenshots must show the project's actual content.

Ordinary cropping, resizing, color correction, text overlays, and compositing are allowed. Generating or generatively adding image content for project presentation is not allowed. Images that violate this rule may be removed.

External Player Previews

Automatically displayed thumbnails or artwork within embedded YouTube or other third-party media players are exempt from this AI-image restriction. Such a preview is not, by itself, a reason to reject a project.

The exception applies only to the preview displayed within the external player. If the same image is uploaded or embedded separately as a project icon, cover, gallery image, or illustration in the description, the restriction applies. All other content rules still apply to embedded content.
