Ferric's Uniforms
by FerricMC
Ferric's Uniforms adds historical military headgear and body armour from the First World War to Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge, with a focus on German and Austro-Hungarian pieces.
What it does
The mod adds WW1-era equipment in several variants, so players can dress characters as soldiers from that period. Its pieces include German and Austro-Hungarian helmets and caps, plus German and Austro-Hungarian breastplates. The author states that more historically inspired uniforms, headgear and equipment are planned for later updates.
Both the server and every player need the mod, since the environment is client and server. Ferric's Uniforms is built for Forge and currently has files for Minecraft 1.20.1 only. The latest Forge file, 1.0.1, is marked alpha and was released on 2026-09-02. The mod is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source.
