About this project

What does Layered Armor API - Dual Armor System add?

English:

🛡️ Layered Armor

Have you ever wished you could wear two full armor sets at the same time in Minecraft? Well, now you can. 😎⚔️

Layered Armor is a mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 + Forge that allows you to equip 2 complete, fully functional armor sets simultaneously, breaking the limitations of Minecraft's vanilla armor system.

But there's a catch: this isn't just cosmetic! 👀

Both armor sets are fully functional. Enchantments, stats, effects, and other benefits provided by each armor piece are fully respected and stack together, allowing you to combine different armor sets and create much more powerful builds. 💪

⚙️ Features

👕 Customizable Armor Display

Want to show off your main armor or your secondary set?

You can choose which of your two armor sets you want to be visually displayed on your character:

  • 🟢 Primary Armor: Uses Minecraft's standard armor slots.

  • 🔵 Secondary Armor: Uses the additional slots provided by the mod.

This lets you combine two armor sets while still keeping the appearance you want. ✨

🔨 Balanced Durability

Wearing two armor sets doesn't mean they're completely indestructible. 😏

Whenever you take damage, both armor sets lose durability:

  • 🛡️ Primary Armor: Takes 70% of the durability damage.

  • ⚔️ Secondary Armor: Takes the remaining 30%, or 1 durability point, whichever is greater.

This allows both armor sets to be useful without turning you into a completely immortal walking tank. 🗿

📦 Required Dependencies

For Layered Armor to work correctly, you must install:

  • 🔧 Curios API

  • 🔧 AttributeFix

⚠️ Make sure you use versions compatible with Minecraft 1.20.1 and Forge.

🤝 Mod Compatibility

In principle, Layered Armor should be compatible with most mods that add:

  • 🛡️ New armor sets.

  • ⚔️ Items that can be equipped in Minecraft's traditional armor slots.

  • ✨ New effects or attributes associated with armor pieces.

Compatibility may vary if another mod uses custom systems that do not follow the usual Minecraft or Forge standards.

🐛 Found an incompatible mod? Leave a comment letting us know which mod is causing the issue. We can investigate the problem and potentially work on adding compatibility.

🔄 Backports & Future Versions

Would you like to play Layered Armor on another version of Minecraft? 📅

Leave a comment telling us which version you're interested in, and we may consider developing a backport or future version, depending on community interest.

🧵 Fabric Version?

Currently, Layered Armor was developed specifically for Forge, so there are no current plans for a Fabric version.

However, if there is enough interest from the community, a Fabric version may be considered in the future. 👀

🛡️ Equip two armor sets. Combine their powers. Break Minecraft's limits. ⚔️


Español:

🛡️ Layered Armor

¿Alguna vez quisiste usar dos armaduras completas al mismo tiempo en Minecraft? Pues ahora puedes hacerlo. 😎⚔️

Layered Armor es un mod para Minecraft 1.20.1 + Forge que permite equipar 2 sets completos de armadura funcionales simultáneamente, superando la limitación del sistema de armaduras vanilla.

Pero ojo: ¡no se trata simplemente de una armadura cosmética! 👀

Ambas armaduras funcionan completamente. Los encantamientos, estadísticas, efectos y demás beneficios proporcionados por cada pieza se respetan y se suman entre sí, permitiéndote combinar diferentes armaduras para crear configuraciones mucho más poderosas. 💪

⚙️ Características

👕 Visualización personalizable

¿Quieres presumir tu armadura principal o mostrar la secundaria?

Puedes elegir cuál de los dos sets quieres que sea visible en tu personaje:

  • 🟢 Armadura principal: utiliza los slots tradicionales de Minecraft.

  • 🔵 Armadura secundaria: utiliza los slots adicionales proporcionados por el mod.

Así puedes combinar dos armaduras sin tener que sacrificar la apariencia que quieres llevar. ✨

🔨 Durabilidad equilibrada

Usar dos armaduras no significa que sean indestructibles. 😏

Cuando recibes daño, ambos sets pierden durabilidad:

  • 🛡️ Armadura principal: recibe el 70% del daño de durabilidad.

  • ⚔️ Armadura secundaria: recibe el 30% restante, o 1 punto de durabilidad, lo que sea mayor.

Esto permite aprovechar ambas armaduras sin convertirte completamente en una entidad inmortal con patas. 🗿

📦 Dependencias obligatorias

Para que Layered Armor funcione correctamente, necesitas instalar:

  • 🔧 Curios API

  • 🔧 AttributeFix

⚠️ Asegúrate de utilizar las versiones compatibles con Minecraft 1.20.1 y Forge.

🤝 Compatibilidad con otros mods

En principio, Layered Armor debería ser compatible con la mayoría de mods que añadan:

  • 🛡️ Nuevas armaduras.

  • ⚔️ Objetos equipables en los slots de armadura tradicionales.

  • ✨ Nuevos efectos o estadísticas asociados a piezas de armadura.

La compatibilidad puede variar si otro mod utiliza sistemas personalizados que no sigan los estándares habituales de Minecraft o Forge.

🐛 ¿Encontraste un mod incompatible? Déjanos un comentario indicando cuál es. Podemos investigar el problema y trabajar en una posible compatibilidad.

🔄 Backports y versiones futuras

¿Te gustaría jugar con Layered Armor en otra versión de Minecraft? 📅

Déjanos un comentario indicando la versión que te interesa y podremos considerar desarrollar un backport o actualización en el futuro, dependiendo del interés de la comunidad.

🧵 ¿Versión para Fabric?

Actualmente, Layered Armor está desarrollado específicamente para Forge, por lo que no hay planes actuales para una versión de Fabric.

Sin embargo, si existe suficiente interés por parte de la comunidad, una versión para Fabric podría considerarse en el futuro. 👀
