Electrical Age (ELN) is a Minecraft Mod offering the ability to perform large-scale in-game electrical simulations.
Look at the official project website electrical-age.net and the Wiki to get general information.
This is a fork of Electrical Age, maintained by Jared Dunbar (jrddunbr) and Graham Nothup (Grissess), with the intent to add features and push for active development, which is incorporated back into the main distribution as they see fit.
We only upload our mod to the GitHub releases page, the Modrinth page, and the CurseForge page. If you download this from anywhere else, it's a bad idea. You can verfy the jar is still intact by using PGP to verify the jar's PGP signature that is generated for the most recent releases and shared on GitHub.
ElectricalAge is Minecraft 1.7.10 compatible only. Forge is needed.
-
Visit the releases page on GitHub for the latest stable build.
-
Download the latest build, and add the jar to your launcher. Be sure that you are using Forge 1.7.10, revision 1614.
-
Launch, and have fun!
-
Download the test world.
You can compile and launch the current development version.
Download or clone the base
branch. Then build and launch using Gradle:
$ git clone https://github.com/jrddunbr/ElectricalAge.git
$ cd ElectricalAge
$ ./gradlew setupDecompWorkspace
$ ./gradlew runClient
We appreciate any help from the community to improve the mod. You can find more information here.
Here is some highlighted features:
A better simulation
Electrical simulation with resistive and capacitive effects. Behavior similar to those of real life objects.
Multiple electrical machines and components
Furnaces, Solar panels, Wind turbines, Batteries, Capacitors, ...
Break the cube
Cables, sensors, actuators, alarms, etc. can be placed on each face (outer and inner) of a cube, which allows a significant reduction of the consumed space by electrical installations.
Night-lighting revisited
Lamps, switches, captors, ...
Small and big electrical consumers
From lamps and electrical furnaces to miners and transporters...
Incredible tools
X-Ray scanner, flashlight, portable mining drill...
Interoperability
Old redstone circuits can be exploited with electrical <-> redstone converters.
Game lifetime/complexity extended
A consequent list of new raw materials and items...
Electrical Age is still in Beta. Use at your own risk and do map backup frequently and between mod updates.
