FAQ

Q: How do I make a suggestion?

A: Join the Discord server and get a special role if your suggestion successfully gets added. The Discord server and all our other socials are linked below.

Q: Are these texture packs bannable?

A: Short answer, no it is not bannable as of 11/9/25. If any staff member attempts to gaslight this, evidence was taken on that exact date showing the rules. No one checks rules every single day, so each rule was reviewed individually.

Unless the pack is used in ways listed above, it is not our responsibility. We cannot control how users choose to use it. This was made as a visual feature and flex. Since scamming is allowed on the server, there is no rule conflict.

Accurate as of 11/9/25

Q: Why isn't the name changing?

A: Make sure your language setting is set to English (US).

Q: Are the files safe?

A: The files are safe.
In the #are-we-trusted channel, people put a checkmark. The checkmark indicates that they've tested and checked the pack.

Additionally, if you're still unsure, you can always check the files yourself.

If you have any trouble with the pack, feel free to open a support ticket in #tickets, and the staff team will do their best to help you.

Once you're done, don't forget to react with a checkmark.

A: If you're using a client like Feather, or want to add the .jar yourself, open your mods folder using one of the methods below.

Windows

macOS (Coming Soon)
~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/mods

Once your mods folder is open, locate the mod file (the .jar file) and drag it into your client. If you're just viewing the pack, you can skip the drag step.

Q: What perks do I get for boosting the Discord?

Q: Skeleton Spawner V2 Mod: what block does it use?

A: The Skeleton Spawner V2 mod uses the block: Yellow Stained Glass.

FYI: If the names don't match up when you're viewing it in the auction, go ahead and buy it, DonutSMP has custom names that overwrite the mod's names. (This only happens for some people.)

Q: Pay Mod V1: what are the commands?

Commands

Hex Color Codes

Q: I can't download: my Discord account won't link.

A: This is the most common issue. It usually happens because you're not signed in to Discord on your browser. To fix it, simply sign in to Discord in your browser and it will let you link.

After linking your Discord account, go back to the page and perform a hard refresh (or a few normal refreshes). This lets the website load properly. Then try to download again.

If that still doesn't work, open a support ticket in the tickets channel and the team will help you.

Q: Are the files safe? Can I trust you?

A: Yes. We are one of the only safe places to get texture packs and mods for DonutSMP, with over 40,000+ downloads. If you're uncertain, feel free to check the are-we-trusted channel and usd-vouches for proof from real users.

Q: Can I get banned for using your mods?

A: No. You cannot get banned for using our mods. This has been confirmed directly with DonutSMP staff, our mods are not against the rules to use, so use them as you like.

As for a fake /pay mod (one that looks like you're paying someone but doesn't actually take your money): using the mod itself is fine. Scamming is allowed on DonutSMP, and people already use texture packs in a similar way, so there's no rule conflict. Use at your own discretion.

Q: Can I get free mods?

A: The only way to get free mods is by joining the affiliate-program. Other than that, there is no way to get free mods.

Q: My browser blocked the installer / "Windows protected your device".

A: A lot of the time your browser will instantly block the installer download because it gets flagged as unsafe. Using Google Chrome usually fixes this.

When you run the installer after downloading, Windows may say "Windows has protected your device." To get around this, click More info → Run Anyway.

Q: My mod isn't working: what should I check?

A: If your mod doesn't work, something on your end is usually causing it. Common causes:

If you've checked all of these and it still doesn't work, open a support ticket in the tickets channel.
