Special Armors

This datapack offers various armor customization options for Minecraft. The main feature is the ability to create armor that changes color when decorative trims are applied. Specifically, the trim material continuously changes, creating a visually appealing effect.

Compatibility

The system works with the following armor types:

• Iron Armor
• Gold Armor
• Chain Armor
• Diamond Armor
• Netherite Armor
• Leather Armor
• Turtle Helmet

Effects are visible both on the character and on armor stands and item frames, allowing you to showcase your unique armor.

Crafting

To create each armor piece, you need to combine the armor item with lapis lazuli, amethyst shard, redstone, copper ingot, nether quartz, gold ingot, diamond, and emerald. The arrangement of ingredients doesn't matter, but all listed components are required.

Additional Features

The datapack also allows crafting decorative trims. To do this, surround any existing trim with the required block and place a diamond in the top middle slot. Since some blocks are used for multiple trim types, the diamond may be positioned in other locations (bottom middle, middle left/right, bottom left/right).

Don't worry about memorizing recipes - all recipes added by this datapack are automatically displayed in your recipe book.

Future Plans

Future updates plan to add color-changing leather armor functionality, as well as armor with effects that go beyond cosmetic changes.
