RideBattle Lib
by JThePigeon
RideBattle Lib is a NeoForge library that gives mod developers a framework for building Kamen Rider style transformations, belts and rider skills in Minecraft.
What it does
The library provides the core of a rider system: a driver belt that accepts items in its slots, a transformation triggered by a key press or by using an item, and form changes that swap the belt items in use. Developers can build on these pieces to create their own rider content rather than writing the transformation logic from scratch.
Its API covers the parts a rider mod needs in combat and play: dedicated controls for special skills and finishers, penalty mechanics that force a detransformation when health runs low, and manual detransformation. Event-driven hooks link transformation sequences to animations and effects, and network synchronization keeps the state consistent between server and clients.
Installation needs only NeoForge, and the library runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The files are published for NeoForge across three game versions, 1.21.1, 1.21.11 and 26.1.2, and the library is open source under the MIT License. Kamen Rider mods such as KamenRiderBossYOUandME depend on it.
Key features
Driver belt with item slots
A belt accepts items in its slots, and inserting an item can switch the player into a different form.
Key-press transformation
Transformations start from a key press or from using an item, with sequences tied to the transformation events.
Form switching
Changing the belt items during combat switches between forms, with dynamic form generation for complex combinations.
Rider skills and penalties
Rider-specific skills and finishers have their own controls, and low health can force a detransformation.

Use cases
Custom Kamen Rider mods
Developers use the framework to add new riders, belts and forms without rebuilding the transformation system.
Event-driven effects
Animations and effects attach to transformation events, so a mod can add visuals on top of the core logic.
Who it’s for: Mod developers building Kamen Rider content for NeoForge, and players who install a rider mod that requires the library.
