Modern Life Patch
by 3944Realms
Modern Life Patch is a Forge patch for Transportation mods that replaces textures, collision boxes and translations in a related original mod.
What it does
The patch was made because the original author's graphic design had too many flaws, and its rigid texture style made it hard to blend with Minecraft's look. Modern Life Patch swaps many item and block models through texture pack overrides and adjusts collision boxes with Mixin so they fit the new models. It also changes the handgun mechanics and adds more recipes, and it introduces some new items. Textures and models were created by BF Meow and may not be used for other purposes without permission.
Translation support is extended in this patch. Simplified Chinese translations were added, mostly machine-translated, to address a common complaint from the Chinese community. Hardcoded text in many areas is being replaced with key-based translations through Mixin, though the i18n coverage is still incomplete. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.18.2 and 1.20.1, and the latest build is 1.20.1-1.5.1-beta, dated 2025-05-03 on the beta channel. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source.
