 Description   

Minecraft Snooper Settings will not detect if you are running a mod on your client, the snooper settings will always say vanilla.

To Reproduce:
1. install a mod on your client
2. launch minecraft
3. click on options -> snooper settings
4. look at the part that tells you the client type
5. Even while running a mod it will say vanilla

Obviously it is up to the modder to replace that value.

It matters nothing in the grand scheme of things. It is for things like Forge who want to 'show' they are being used.

This is an issue in the latest version of minecraft.

Comment by fienxjox [ 26/Mar/14 ]

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.7.5 / Launcher version 1.3.11 or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

That line in the snooper data doesn't specify whether or not the client is modded, it specifies the client brand, which a mod may or may not change. Forge does, modloader might. It might be useful if they had a "modded" field in the snooper, but that's up to them whether or not they consider it useful.

Confirmed.
