    About

    Aetherworks is an Embers addon focused on gathering and refining aetherium into a late-game toolset with distinctive abilities. Aetherium ore generates high in the mountains, where its glow helps players find it; an Aether Collector gathers impure aetherium at night, which can be purified with molten electrum in a Mixer Centrifuge. Turning the resource into equipment involves a multiblock forge powered by Embers, where players manage heat with heaters, coolers, vents, and a gauge, then use a Metal Former or hammer-worked Anvil to process materials. The resulting tools share an area-of-effect block-breaking feature that can be toggled off and an Aetheric enchantment that repairs them in moonlight, while still allowing further enchantments. Examples of their specialized uses include a pickaxe that mines connected veins, another that finds biome-dependent geodes, axes for accelerating crops or felling whole trees, and shovels for placing or replacing connected blocks. The Aetherium Crown can hold and continually apply a potion effect, while its crossbows offer either powerful armor-piercing shots or a volley of arrows accompanied by damaging magma. JEI integration provides recipe lookup, and CraftTweaker support lets users add or remove recipes for the Metal Former and Forge Anvil.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.12.2.

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    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 · The latest file checked, last on 16 Oct 2026
    • 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.
      1 latest file. It is not for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about it. 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.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.12.2.

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    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 · Its one file read
    • 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 its one file, for Minecraft 1.12.2. See each file in Releases

    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.

    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.
