Tech & Automation Mods

Several parallel tech trees, each with its own Quest Book chapter. Pick one or two to specialize — see the mid-game stage for when to start.

Create

The showpiece automation mod (6.0.8.1). Everything runs on real, visible mechanical power — shafts, gears, water wheels, contraptions you build by hand and watch turn. Water wheels only spin under genuinely flowing water, not a still pool.

Applied Energistics 2

The endgame storage-and-autocrafting system: one digital ME network that holds, sorts, and auto-crafts from thousands of items instead of a wall of chests. Steep learning curve, enormous payoff — the real answer to “how do I auto-sort my storage.”

Tech Reborn

A complete, self-contained classic tech tree — tools, machines, ore processing — for progressing through “generate power, build bigger machines” instead of Create’s contraptions.

Modern Industrialization

Another full industrial tech tree, heavier on multiblock machines and chemistry-flavored processing chains.

Powah!

The pack’s accessible energy mod — generators, batteries, and cables that wire into whichever tech tree you’re actually playing.

Create addons and companions (grouped)

Create: New Age (bridges kinetic power into electricity), Create Crafts & Additions (Electric Motor/Alternator converting Forge energy ↔ kinetic power), Create: Estrogen (Create-flavored module for the Estrogen mod), Create: Steam ‘n’ Rails (rail/steam expansion), Create: Copycats+ (disguise blocks), Colorwheel (Iris shader + Flywheel compat).

Estrogen

The base mod behind Create: Estrogen — its own fluid handling mechanics and a dash ability.

Other tech trees & AE2 extras (grouped)

Industrial Revolution (another full industrial tech tree) + its EMI Plugin. Alloy Forgery (configurable alloy smelting pre-full-tech-tree). ExtendedAE, MEGA Cells, ME Requester, AE2WTLib (all extend AE2 — QoL content, huge storage cells, auto-restocking, wireless terminals). Applied Botanics (bridges Botania mana into an AE2 network). OnlyExcavators and Just Hammers (3x3-area mining tools). Polymorphic Energistics (AE2 recipes work with the Polymorph system, see Quality-of-Life & UI Mods).
