Techguns Remake [Unofficial] 1.19.2, 1.20.1 & 1.21.1

The legendary Techguns mod is back — now on Minecraft 1.20.1 (Forge) and Minecraft 1.21.1 (NeoForge)!

📥 Which file to download

• Minecraft 1.21.1 — NeoForge 21.1+: Techguns-1.21.1-NeoForge.jar (Java 21)
• Minecraft 1.20.1 — Forge 47.4+: Techguns-1.20.1-Forge.jar (Java 17)
• There is no 1.21.1 Forge version: Patchouli, which the guide book needs, is only released for NeoForge and Fabric on 1.21.1. On 1.21.1 please use NeoForge.
• Both versions have the same content. Worlds are not converted between 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 — start a new world when you switch.

Techguns Remake brings the original 1.12.2 mod to modern Minecraft and keeps it the way you remember: the same guns, armor, machines, enemies and dungeons, with the original models, textures, sounds and stats. On top of that, the Remake adds its own power generators, a built-in oil system and an in-game guide book — and this is only the beginning: new content is planned for future updates.

🧪 Project Status

🔄 How the Remake Differs from the Original

• Runs on Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge and Minecraft 1.21.1 NeoForge instead of 1.12.2
• Has its own power generation and oil, so it works without extra energy mods
• Includes a built-in guide book in English and Russian
• Gets new content over time that was not in the original

🚀 Planned

More new content is on the way. The goal is not only to bring Techguns back, but to keep growing it on modern Minecraft. Ideas and suggestions are welcome in the comments!

• Minecraft 1.21.1: NeoForge 21.1 or newer, Java 21
• Minecraft 1.20.1: Forge 47.4 or newer, Java 17
• Guide book: Patchouli is built in, no extra install needed
• Required on: client and server
• Optional: JEI (recipe viewing)

📜 Changelog

• 1.21.1 NeoForge — first release: the whole mod is now available for Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge, with the same guns, armor, machines, NPCs, dungeons, power and guide book as the 1.20.1 version.
• 1.20.1 Forge — bug fix: dropped 3D suit armor parts (steam armor and power armor) were drawn at full body size on the ground; they now have the size of a normal dropped item. The same fix is included in the 1.21.1 version.
