Dochi`s Real Armor

Dochi Real Armor

Dochi Real Armor brings configurable vanilla-style armor calculations to CustomNPCs, Easy NPC, and Dochi NPC Core, depending on the Minecraft version and loader. Armor calculations work independently from debug output, and optional hit-region mode lets head, chest, and lower-body hits use the matching equipment slots.

Available for Forge 1.20.1, Fabric and NeoForge 1.21.1, and Fabric and NeoForge 26.3.

Main features

• Independent compatibility switches for supported NPC integrations.
• Vanilla-style armor and armor-toughness calculations applied once at the armor absorption stage.
• Configurable Protection enchantments, armor knockback resistance, and armor durability damage.
• Optional hit-region armor: helmets protect the head, chestplates protect the chest, and leggings plus boots protect the lower body.
• Projectile path tracing for hit-region detection, including Easy NPC handling for TACZ-style shots on Forge 1.20.1.
• Configurable CustomNPCs resistance order and companion armor behavior on the 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 builds.
• Debug messages that observe damage results without enabling or disabling armor calculations.
• Optional integration with Dochi RPG Maker’s Mods Config screen and shared UI appearance when its compatible client API is available.
• A standalone configuration screen when the DRM integration is unavailable.
• Server-controlled settings with permission checks and confirmation of applied changes.
• English, Korean, Russian, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese UI text.

Hit regions use the entity’s server-side bounding box. They do not follow individual bones or the exact outline of a custom model.

Compatibility

Use NPC mod builds that match your Minecraft version and loader. CustomNPCs is not supported on Minecraft 26.3 or later. CustomNPCs-specific resistance and companion settings apply only to CustomNPCs on the older targets.

All NPC integrations are optional. Dochi Real Armor can load without an NPC mod installed. Dochi RPG Maker is also optional; configuration integration depends on the client API features provided by the installed DRM build.

Install the matching Dochi Real Armor build on both the client and server alongside the NPC mod you use. Fabric builds require Fabric API. Mod Menu is optional and provides the standalone configuration entry on Fabric.

Damage systems that bypass Minecraft’s normal living-entity armor pipeline may require a separate compatibility adapter.

Configuration

• Forge / NeoForge: open Mods > Dochi Real Armor > Config.
• Fabric: open the Dochi Real Armor configuration through Mod Menu.
• With compatible Dochi RPG Maker integration: open the Real Armor tab in Mods Config.

While connected to a server, the configuration screen displays the server’s settings and your editing permissions. Changes take effect after the server confirms them. Connections without editing permission or compatible configuration support remain read-only; connected changes do not overwrite your local defaults.

Commands and server-authoritative configuration changes require permission level 2, or the equivalent Game Master permission on Minecraft 26.3.

Configuration files

Forge and NeoForge automatically copy an existing cnpc_real_armor-common.toml when the current TOML file does not exist. Fabric imports an existing dochi_real_armor-common.toml or cnpc_real_armor-common.toml on first launch when its JSON configuration does not exist.

Commands

/dochi_real_armor status
/dochi_real_armor split true|false
/dochi_real_armor durability true|false
/dochi_real_armor debug true|false

• status: shows the current armor settings.
• split: enables or disables hit-region armor.
• durability: enables or disables armor durability damage.
• debug: enables or disables damage debug messages.
