What it does

Blocks in the mod are built to look like a realistic Chinese-style city. Road line blocks carry lot road signs, and separate road direction signs mark traffic flow. Many kinds of modern fences are included, along with trash bins and a fire extinguisher box for street and building scenes.

Household and building objects are also included: a solar water heater and a gaming PC, with GPUs styled to resemble air conditioning units. The mod requires Architectury API. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Builds cover 1.18.2 – 26.3 across 15 release versions, with 2.3.0 as the latest file for each loader. The code is not open source; it is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0.

Which loaders are supported?

The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with the latest 2.3.0 file available for each.

Can the optional Sodium or Embeddium be used with it?

Embeddium, Modern UI and Sodium are listed as optional dependencies, so they can be added but are not needed to run the mod.
