About
Advanced Creation is a building-focused mod that speeds up construction and world editing through an RTS-like, isometric camera and a suite of interactive tools. The camera can zoom, rotate around a focus point, and move freely, with an optional cutaway view for looking inside buildings; clickable HUD controls make the free-cursor perspective practical to use. Building tools include single-block placement, lines, rectangles, curves, circles, pulling, copying, moving or deleting, filling gaps, painting with a brush or bucket, and placing or deleting plants, with previews showing the blocks each operation will affect. Directional settings support free placement, vertical XY or ZY planes, horizontal XZ placement, and following the ground, while rectangle and circle tools can be filled or left hollow. Players can select existing structures to create templates, place those templates with options such as a generated foundation, and share or download creations for use in-game. EDIT mode provides terrain tools to dig, raise, and level land, as well as smooth slopes into traversable terrain or sharpen them into cliffs. The mod also includes undo and redo and an integrated help screen with animated examples.

No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.12 to 1.16.5.
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Starts other programs
- It can start another program on your computer, for example to open a link in your browser.
- Uses folders outside the game
- It can read or write files outside your Minecraft folder, on the rest of your computer. Found: your user folder.
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. No web address is written in its code. See Privacy
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. Only in its files for Forge 1.16.5.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
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.3 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. 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
- Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.Read without running it
- 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.
- Starts other programsPurpose not known.
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
- Modrinth and CurseForgeA release with a different file on Modrinth and on CurseForge, whose code is not the same. Each file is checked on its own. Nothing is blocked.Minecraft 1.16.5 · Forge · release AdvancedCreation-beta1.2.2 · 12 Mar 2024: Modrinthcode differs in 2 releases

Privacy
We found nothing it sends about you
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.12 to 1.16.5.
We read its code without running it: it contacts 1 web address while you play.
Like any connection, each address it contacts sees your IP address.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.The code of all 3 files, for Minecraft 1.12 to 1.16.5. See each file in Releases
- Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.Purpose not known.
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its description, files and images and found none.
We have not read its changelogs yet.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. 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 or AI features declared.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found in the descriptionChangelogs not read yet
- Its filesFiles that AI coding tools leave behind (like AGENTS.md), and the texts inside the files you download.Nothing found
- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Nothing found72 images read
- Code of the modThe code and files of the mod, read without running it: addresses of AI services, AI libraries, AI model files and a place for your own AI key.No AI service, AI library or AI model file1,245 code files read
