Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install this mod by itself or does it come with something else?
You only need to install AE2 Addon Lib if a modpack, addon, or another mod specifically requires it—it's a library mod that runs in the background. If you're playing a pack that uses AE2 addons, it will already be included.
What's the difference between this and Applied Energistics 2?
Applied Energistics 2 is the main mod with ME networks and storage systems. AE2 Addon Lib is a toolkit that lets other mods add custom machines and menus that work properly with AE2's systems—you need AE2 installed for this mod to do anything.
How do I register a new item or block with this mod?
Use the Registry Tools provided by the mod, which handle the setup process automatically for items, blocks, fluids, and materials without requiring manual configuration. The mod manages the registration behind the scenes so custom content integrates cleanly.
Can I add custom buttons and sliders to my machine's menu?
Yes—the Menu Widgets feature unlocks standard buttons from Applied Energistics 2 for custom use and includes a built-in slider styled to match the classic tech menu aesthetic. You can also add a full color picker that accepts hex codes.
