    About

    Arcana Novum adds a server-side magic progression system, so players can use its features without installing client mods. Players research and craft more than 80 Arcana items across five rarities, including charms, runic arrows, weapons, armor, tools and utility blocks, at the Starlight Forge. The Forge expands through five additions: the Twilight Anvil, Midnight Enchanter, Stellar Core, Radiant Fletchery and Arcane Singularity. Players also build multiblock altars, including the Starpath Altar for long-distance teleportation and the Transmutation Altar, which offers more than 100 transmutations. Research tasks unlock recipes, while using Arcana items earns XP and raises the player's level and Concentration limit, which governs how many items they can wield at once. More than 190 Augmentations, unlocked with skill points, can strengthen an item or change how it works; over 160 achievements also award XP and skill points. Stardust Infusion adds a minigame for boosting gear stats, and cosmetic item skins provide alternate looks for equipment. Custom boss encounters and rare events are the only ways to obtain Divine items, giving the progression a late-game goal. The Tome of Arcana Novum serves as an in-game guide and Compendium, showing item recipes and research tasks, while the server can automatically provide the mod's resource pack to connecting players. The mod is designed for server administration as well as play, with in-game interfaces, more than 400 configuration options and permission controls for commands.

    Security

    No harmful code found

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

    What it can do on your computer

    Accepts connections from other computers
    It can accept connections from other computers. Found in BorisLib, a library it includes and in Polymer (Auto Host), a library it includes.
    Connects to the internet
    It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Found in the mod's own code and in 5 libraries it includes. See Privacy
    Creates settings files
    The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. 8 files in your config folder.

    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 · All 10 latest files checked, last on 20 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.
      10 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. All 10 are for recent versions. 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.
    • Accepts connections from other computers
      Runs a small web server.
    • Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.
      Folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends about you

    We read its code without running it: it contacts 2 web addresses 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 · All 10 files 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 all 10 files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
    • sessionserver.mojang.com
      Talks to the Minecraft login service.
    • 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 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.

    Known conflicts

    These projects do not work together with Arcana Novum: their authors or Arcana Novum's author say so. If you install both, the game can crash or some features can stop working. Some of them do the same job as Arcana Novum, so you only need one.
