Know What You're Installing
We label what we can verify and tell you what we cannot.
Source status
Every resource links to its creator's original page. We do not mirror files. If a source is down, we mark it and disable the download button.
Compatibility
Edition, version, and loader are listed only when confirmed by the source. "Unknown" means we haven't verified it — not that it's broken.
No safety guarantees
We do not scan files or promise "virus-free." Treat third-party downloads with the same caution you would anywhere. Report broken or suspicious sources.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these resources free?
Most mods, shaders, and texture packs listed are free. Some maps or modpacks may have paid versions. We link to the creator page so you can check before downloading.
Does MinecraftDrop host files?
No. We link to original creator pages and official sources. Files are hosted on this domain only when we have permission or when the resource is our own. Every resource page clearly states where the download goes.
How are download counts verified?
Counts are taken from the creator's source page (CurseForge, Modrinth, or the creator's own site) at the time of listing. They are not live counters. We note the date of verification on each resource page.
Which Minecraft version should I use?
Check the resource page. We list supported versions only when the source confirms them. If a version isn't listed, it may still work — but we won't guess. For mods, always match the mod version to your loader and game version exactly.
Why do some resources say "source unavailable"?
The creator's page is down or has moved. We keep the resource listed so you can find it later, but the download button stays disabled until the source returns. You can report a broken link from any resource page.
Is MinecraftDrop affiliated with Mojang or Microsoft?
No. MinecraftDrop is an independent resource directory. We are not approved by or associated with Mojang Studios or Microsoft. "Minecraft" is a trademark of Mojang Synergies AB.
