About
Eras of Arda: The First Age Legacy submod brings the First Age of Middle-earth to the Lord of the Rings Legacy setting, focusing play on Beleriand rather than the wider Middle-earth map. Its edited map adds Beleriand and replaces the rest of Middle-earth with ocean, and its factions let players take sides such as the elves of Doriath, the men of Dor-lómin, or the orcs of Angband. The setting includes places and settlements such as Angband, Echoriath, Nogrod, and Taur-im-Duinath, with additions in Taur-im-Duinath including Ent plants, jars, and light green fog. The submod also features First Age creatures and characters, including the werewolves of Tol-in-Gaurhoth, Boldogs, Balrogs, and Ulmo. Silmarils have faction-related gameplay: Fëanorian attacks target their holders unless they meet a high Fëanorian-alignment threshold or pledge to the Fëanorians, while players aligned with or pledged to any Elf faction can hold a Silmaril without being burned. Other additions include Galvorn armor recipes at the crafting tables of Gondolin, Doriath, and Nogrod, as well as a Nogrod Crafter achievement.

Security
No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.7.10.
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 2 web addresses. See Privacy
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. It is not for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about it. 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 about you
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.7.10.
We read its code without running it: it contacts 3 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
- 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 Minecraft 1.7.10. See each file in Releases
- dl.dropboxusercontent.comChecks for updates on a site that the mod's files do not list as its own.
- sessionserver.mojang.comTalks 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.
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its description, files, images and sounds and found none.
We have not read its changelogs 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.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found in the descriptionChangelogs not read yet
