About
Drive-By-Sable is a standalone fork of Drive-By-Wire that improves its redstone-based connection system and adds quality-of-life changes; Drive-By-Wire itself is not required. Its Cable network links sources and outputs to transfer redstone signals, with a Cable Cutter for removing connections and hubs that bridge the network to Create Linked Controllers, Tweaked Controllers, and Create: Simulated redstone-link frequencies. The mod includes native support for Aeronautics: Toolgun, Sable Photomancy, Synaxis, Create: Tweaked Controllers, CC: Tweaked, Dashpanels, and Get Creative. A Cable I/O Bus is part of the crafting tree for most of the mod’s blocks, and survival recipes are provided for items such as the Cable, Cable Cutter, hubs, and Backup Drive; players can also recover placed blocks with tools. Backup Drives save nearby cable connections on their relative plane for use with Create schematics, while cable outputs can be copied between hubs with their input bindings preserved. Tooltips explain cable-related item features, and in-game Ponder scenes document the Cable Hub, Advanced Cable Hub, and Typewriter Cable Hub; a dedicated creative-tab section organizes the mod’s content. The mod also adds Radio-Kinetic Transceivers for wireless power transfer and a Honeyed Clipboard food item.

Security
No harmful code found
We checked its files without running them.
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.2 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.Not read yet
- 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 have not read its code yet
The file checks found no code that connects to the internet.
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.None yet. 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 so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and sounds 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.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.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 found22 of 40 changelogs read

- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Nothing found41 images read
- Sounds in its filesThe tags of the sound files in the files you download, where some AI music tools write their name.Nothing found16 sounds read
