About
Data Energistics expands Applied Energistics 2 networks with a technology path focused on data processing, storage, automation, and large-scale crafting. Players can begin with Digitalized Meteorites and Data Crystals, then develop a Data Flow system with storage cells, portable storage, and resource-production chains. Data Reassembler, Data Extractor, and Data Mimetic Field machines support data processing and simulation, while Data Ripper consumes Data Flow to accelerate machines, AE devices, and random ticks. The Trinity multiblock crafting system uses data cores, pattern cores, and access structures to handle large, parallel, and cyclic crafting plans. Network additions include Adaptive Pattern Providers, terminal and virtual-output extensions, and coordinated machine functions; a Data Distribution Tower sends AE channels and FE over long distances. Data Teleport Anchors provide point-to-point teleportation through color channels, and the Digital Storage Depot connects to ME networks to store items, fluids, and Generic Keys together. The mod also adds AE-powered equipment, including Data Crystal tools, a Data Light Saber, a Data Sanctifier, and a Matter Converging Crossbow. An in-game AE2 Guide documents the main machines, materials, upgrades, resources, and progression.
Written from CurseForge and the GitHub README . How we write it
In-game changes

A library packed inside it changes 1 more game code file: 
ConnectedTexturesMod.
Adds 30 blocks, 48 items, 1 projectile, 1 other entity, 1 structure, 78 recipes, 10 loot tables and 5 key bindings.
Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. It contacts 1 web address. See Privacy
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. 5 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
- 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
- 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
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
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.
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.Not on Modrinth.
- Code historyThe public code on GitHub: who made each change, credit lines such as "Co-authored-by", and its files.Not read yet
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found40 changelogs read
- 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 found186 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 file715 code files read
