ME Infinity Cell
Storage management is one of the biggest challenges in any modded Minecraft world, and Applied Energistics 2 veterans know the struggle of constantly crafting bigger cells just to keep up with a growing base. The ME Infinity Cell add-on solves that problem in the most satisfying way possible: by making certain storage cells effectively bottomless. If you have ever watched a 64k crafting storage cell fill up in the middle of a big build, this mod was made for you.
What Does ME Infinity Cell Do?
At its core, this add-on introduces special ME storage cells that hold an infinite amount of a single item, fluid, or gas type. Instead of juggling dozens of storage buses or constantly upgrading drive arrays, you can dedicate one cell to iron ingots, one to lava, and one to oxygen, and never worry about capacity again. The mod also adds an Infinity Cobblestone Cell and an Infinity Water Cell out of the box, covering two of the most commonly stored resources in any AE2 network.
Beyond those defaults, the real magic lies in the infinities cell, a variant that can hold multiple different keys at once. That means a single cell can track diamonds, gold, copper, stone, water, and lava simultaneously, which is perfect for players who want a compact, curated storage solution rather than a sprawling wall of drives.
Supported Versions and Loaders
The add-on targets modern modded setups, with dedicated builds for Minecraft 1.20.1 and Minecraft 1.21.1 running on NeoForge and Forge. Because the registration syntax changed between these versions, the mod ships separate code paths for each, so make sure you grab the build that matches your game version. If you are building a fresh 1.21.1 pack, the newer syntax uses component-style data for potions and enchanted books, while 1.20.1 relies on the older NBT string format.
Custom Cells and KubeJS Support
Registering Your Own Infinity Cells
One of the standout features is full KubeJS integration, which lets pack authors and tinkerers define custom infinity cells without writing a single line of Java. Using StartupEvents.registry, you can create a cell for nearly any item or fluid by pointing it at a registry name. For example, an infinity iron ingot cell is as simple as calling itemType("minecraft:iron_ingot"), while a lava cell uses fluidType("minecraft:lava").
The system also reaches into other popular tech mods. With Applied Flux installed, you can register an FE energy cell using FluxKeyHelper. With Applied Mekanistics, you gain access to oxygen, carbon, yellow pigment, and clean osmium slurry cells through MekanismKeyHelper. Ars Énergistique fans can even pull in Source via Java.loadClass, opening the door to some genuinely creative cross-mod setups.
Building a Multi-Key Infinities Cell
The infinities cell takes things further by accepting a KeyList, allowing you to bundle many keys into one item. You can add items, fluids, and even pre-configured tools like a charged wireless crafting terminal with stored coordinates. This makes it ideal for server admins who want to hand out a single "starter storage" cell that covers every early-game resource.
How to Install
Getting started is straightforward, and knowing how to install correctly saves a lot of troubleshooting later.
- Confirm your Minecraft version and loader, since the 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 builds are not interchangeable.
- Install the matching version of Applied Energistics 2, as the add-on depends on it.
- Drop the mod file into your
modsfolder alongside any optional integrations you plan to use. - Launch the game once to generate configs, then start registering cells through KubeJS scripts if you want custom variants.
When you download ME Infinity Cell, double-check that any optional dependencies such as Applied Flux, Applied Mekanistics, or Ars Énergistique are present before writing scripts that reference them, otherwise the registry events will fail on startup. For players who prefer a frictionless setup, the foxygame.net launcher handles ME Infinity Cell for Minecraft through its curated add-on catalog, automatically matching the correct build to your installed game version so you never have to guess which file belongs in your mods folder.
Why It Belongs in Your Pack
Storage bloat is one of the quiet killers of late-game modded worlds. Drives fill up, networks lag, and suddenly your crafting terminal refuses to accept another stack of cobblestone. The ME Infinity Cell add-on removes that entire category of annoyance by letting a single cell absorb an unlimited quantity of the resources you care about most. Combined with its KubeJS hooks and multi-mod compatibility, it is flexible enough for kitchen-sink packs and focused tech modpacks alike.
If you run a large AE2 network and want to stop micromanaging storage, this add-on is a smart addition. Set up your infinity cells once, script a few custom variants for your favorite mods, and get back to building instead of sorting.
