MTA - New York City Subway Signs
by mathusallem
MTA - New York City Subway Signs is a decorative set of station signs and route markers modeled on the New York City subway, for builders making transit hubs and maps.
What it does
The mod adds signage blocks styled after the visual language of the New York City transit system, including station name signs and route markers. Builders use them to dress underground platforms, metro stations and city maps, and they are often used on roleplay servers that depict a subway network.
Files exist for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Both the server and every player need the mod, because the signs are placed in the world and must be known to each client. The mod is released under a custom license and is not open source. Builds cover 1.19.2 – 26.3 across twelve release versions, and the latest file for Fabric targets 26.3.
Key features
Subway station signs
Signs reproduce the clean, recognizable look of station and route signage used in the New York City subway.
Route markers
Route marker blocks let builders label lines and platforms in the style of transit maps.
Decorative blocks
The blocks are decorative only and carry no gameplay function, so they suit realistic transit environments and city builds.
Modern urban settings
The sign set fits modern urban environments as well as underground platform scenes.
