ZeroContact
Adding ballistic plates/Body armors to Modded Minecraft providing unique close combat experiences cooperating with TACZ.
Quick answer
Which ZeroContact release should I use?
ZeroContact 1.1.4-hotfix targets 1.20.1 with Forge. Installation on the client is optional. Installation on the dedicated server is optional. 1 required mod needs a matching file.
Where it goes
Is ZeroContact required on the client, server, or both?
Installation on the client is optional. Installation on the dedicated server is optional.
The source marks this as usable on both the client and server.
What else does ZeroContact 1.1.4-hotfix need?
1.1.4-hotfix. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Curios API, Architectury API, [TaCZ] Timeless and Classics Zero, GeckoLib first, but 1 required mod has no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match. 1 comes through another mod in the chain.
1 extra mod was pulled in by another dependency. Indented rows show who needs each one. We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

Quick Preview


ZeroContact is an armor-focused combat expansion mod that introduces advanced protection systems and armor-piercing ammunition, designed to work alongside TaCZ. It overhauls the way Minecraft/TaCZ handles projectile damage, armor protection, and durability loss.
Features
- A variety of tactical armor systems, including body armor, ballistic plates, plate carriers, and equipment accessories.
- A redesigned ballistic calculation system that determines projectile damage based on armor protection, penetration capability, and impact conditions.
- A custom armor damage system that provides more realistic durability loss and protection behavior.
- Support for custom datapacks, allowing players and mod developers to configure or create:
- Geckolib-based armor, plate, uniform and plate-carrier items.
- Armor protection parameters and behavior.
- Custom ammo type modification rules.
Compabilities:
Mentioned below are all followed by the latest changes
- First Aid (Provide hitbox system)
- First Aid Compat (Provide hitbox system more precisely)
- TaCZ: Magazines 0.1.6 (Provide Magazine overhaul)
Incompabilities:
- Any Mod which did too much overhaul to TaCZ
