About
Blood Smeltery is a Blood Magic addon that expands its integration with Tinkers’ Construct, bringing blood- and demon-will-themed materials, fluids, and tool modifiers into Tinkers equipment and smeltery crafting. Demon Will can be handled as a fluid, stored in Tartaric Gems or transferred through compatible equipment, and used with ingredients such as blood or Meat Soup to make Life Essence; it can also be pumped into and out of Hellfire Forges that contain a Tartaric Gem. Blood-Seared Stone can be alloyed from seared stone and Life Essence, cast into blank runes or slates, and used as a tool material whose Bloodstained modifier repairs equipment using LP from the player’s Soul Network. Bloodbrass, made from molten copper and Life Essence or in a Tier 2 Blood Altar, gives tools and weapons Exsanguinate, which generates LP as they deal damage; on armour and shields, its Transfusion modifier generates LP when they take damage. Tauonic Thread provides bindings or bowstrings with Ambrosiac, which repairs held tools or weapons when the player spends LP. The Sentience modifier lets Tinkers tools behave like Sentient items: slain monsters drop Demon Will, and the tools level up according to the amount and type of Will held, with tool tanks also able to store Will and contribute to that scaling. Divination and Seer’s sigils can be added to tools or armour to carry their functions, while the Blood Lamp sigil lets a tool place Blood Lamps at an LP cost. The addon also supports Thermal Expansion and Create, with additional integrations that include Tinkers Complement, Blood Arsenal, and limited Mekanism and Ender IO support when Blood Arsenal is installed.

Security
No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them.
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.4 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
- 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.
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends
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
- 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 recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
- 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 that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and code history and found none.
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.
- Code historyThe public code on GitHub: who made each change, credit lines such as "Co-authored-by", and its files.Nothing found
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found6 of 33 changelogs read
