Create Custom Weapons and Items Using Data Packs

Understanding Data Pack Integration

The Clay Soldiers Remake Mod supports data packs to extend soldier equipment beyond vanilla items. Data packs let you define new weapons, armor, and special items that soldiers can equip and use in combat.

Setting Up a Data Pack

Place your data pack in the datapacks folder of your world directory. The mod will load custom item definitions automatically. Data packs can add entirely new weapon types with custom behaviors, textures, and combat stats.

Designing Custom Equipment

You can create themed weapon sets—magical staves, fantasy swords, or unique armor designs—without modifying the mod itself. This is ideal for creating custom battle scenarios or themed armies. Consult the mod's data pack documentation for the correct JSON structure and available properties for defining new equippable items. Test your data pack in a creative world before using it in survival.
