About
Create Additions & Synthetics expands Create-based automation with alternative and new recipes for vanilla items, Create content, and items from other Create add-ons, drawing largely on real-world manufacturing processes to offer different ways to make things. Its recipes cover blocks such as sponges, netherrack, magma blocks, bone blocks, bookshelves, sea lanterns, moss, quartz blocks, aged copper, and andesite, as well as items including redstone, honey, leather, coal, paper, prismarine, gunpowder, nautilus shells, ink, apples, milk, and cocoa beans. Some recipes introduce intermediate materials and processing steps: milling logs produces sawdust for paper, while gunpowder compound is made from charcoal and cinder flour for gunpowder. The mod also adds Gilded Netherite tools, a tier beyond netherite with increased damage and mining speed, made by combining a Gilded Upgrade, Brass Crystal, and netherite tool in a smithing table; the upgrade uses Dense Brass Sheets. More than 80 stonecutter-made number items, ranging from 00 to 20, can serve as Redstone Link filters or floor labels; they are crafted from templates made with brass, iron, copper, or zinc nuggets and paper. It also provides a recipe for obtaining the Creative Tank from Create Stuff 'N Additions.

Security
No harmful code found
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
- 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, 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 and images 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.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found22 of 40 changelogs read
- Its filesFiles that AI coding tools leave behind (like AGENTS.md), and the texts inside the files you download.Nothing found
