About
Mechanization is a technology-focused survival datapack that adds an energy-powered automation and crafting progression, with more than 60 machines and over 250 items. Players generate and route power through an energy grid, using cables, batteries, capacitors, and wireless relays to run machines; a fluid system of pipes and tanks moves liquids between them as well. Its machines automate farming, fishing, mining, and item processing: for example, the Auto Farm harvests and replants nearby crops, the Auto Fisher catches fish, and the Grinder turns materials such as ores, logs, bones, and cobblestone into other products. Item pipes with filtering support and the Mech Storage System help move and store large quantities of items, with storage drives holding up to 24 item types and roughly two million items of each type. Progression includes custom Tin, Titanium, and Uranium ore generation, an in-game manual, and an alloy-making chain in which furnaces melt resources into molten metals and a Casting Basin turns them into ingots, blocks, and components. Later systems include nuclear fission reactors and fuel processing, while modular tools and armor, an upgradeable Drill, an Energy Saber, and the power-dependent Extreme Plasma Annihilator Cannon extend equipment and combat options. A resource pack supplies custom models, textures, and sounds for the datapack’s machines and items.

Security
No harmful code found
We checked what is inside its files, without opening them in the game.
Why we show this: a data pack cannot run programs, but its file can hide one. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.12 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the one for a recent version. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
Privacy
Sends nothing
A data pack has no code that can connect to the internet, so it cannot send anything about you.
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
We have not read its code history yet.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.No AI content declared.
