KurumaExampleCarPack
by jdmmc
KurumaExampleCarPack is a Forge and NeoForge car pack that supplies the vehicle models, textures and sounds for the Kuruma mod, built by jdmmc.
What it does
Kuruma itself is a separate project with its own license, and this pack only adds to it. The pack is a folder of JSON models, textures and sounds, with no code, so it can be read and edited without any programming. Builds exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the same jar serves both, provided Forge or NeoForge is the loader. Kuruma has to be installed first.
A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The server decides which cars exist, and the client renders them, so the pack goes on both the server and each player's client. Files cover 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with the latest 1.4.0 for 1.21.1 dated 2026-10-10 on both Forge and NeoForge. The pack is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Example car set
The pack includes a tall boxy van with deep dish wheels, along with the other example vehicles it ships with.
Tuned in-game values
Engine, gears, springs, differential and tyre numbers start from the way the author tuned them, and they can be changed in the game.
Adjustable setup
Pressing G opens the setup screen, where a player can change the tuning of a vehicle.
Pack template
A template is included, so an author can build a new car pack by swapping in their own models, textures and sounds.

Use cases
Playing on a server
A server owner installs the pack on the server and players add it to their clients, so every car appears the same for everyone.
Making a custom pack
Authors unzip the jar, edit the JSON and asset files, and repack them as a zip to create their own car sets.
Who it’s for: Players who want extra vehicles for Kuruma, server owners who host them, and modders who make their own car packs without writing code.
How it compares
Car Traffic Generator is open source under the MIT License and runs on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.17 – 1.21.4, with the server required and the client optional. [ST]Drive is only for 1.20.1, uses the client and server environment, and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

What the author says
A tall, boxy van — and a set of deep dish wheels to put on it. It can be tuned in-game, so the numbers are a starting point, not something fixed. That's it. No extra libraries, no config files to edit.
