Aetherworks Unofficial Extended Life
Aetherworks Unofficial Extended Life is a Forge addon for Embers Unofficial Extended Life, a dwarven-themed magic fork that adds aetherium tools, multiblocks and late-game gear.
What it does
Aetherium is collected and refined in this addon. Players can gather aetherium ore, build multiblock structures and craft tools meant for the late game of the Embers line. The fork is a continuation of the original Aetherworks project, with its own changes and a chapter about the mod added to the Ancient Codex in the wiki.
The mod requires Embers Unofficial Extended Life, and it is built for that base alone. Its maintainers chose to fork the addon because fixing errors in the Embers fork through mixins was difficult, and they plan to keep both forks developed closely together. The build targets Forge for Minecraft 1.12.2 only, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, the same license the original author chose.

Late-game toolset

How it compares
Aetherworks Refracted is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, but it targets Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1. Embers Rekindled is open source under the MIT License and also targets 1.20.1, so players who need the original Embers content use it instead of this addon. AE2 Stuff: Extended is open source under the MIT License, client and server, for Forge 1.12.2 only.
