Immersive Vehicles Mod (1.20.1, 1.12.2) – Realistic Planes and Automobiles for Minecraft

Immersive Vehicles Mod (1.20.1, 1.12.2) revolutionizes how transportation works in Minecraft by introducing incredibly realistic vehicles with advanced physics. As the spiritual successor to the beloved Minecraft Flight Simulator, this mod is the culmination of over a year of dedicated development. It adds not only aircraft but also ground vehicles that behave like their real-world counterparts perfect for players who want more than just basic movement.

What sets Immersive Vehicles apart is its dedication to realism and customization. From aerodynamic lift and pitch angles in flight to tire traction and surface friction on land, the mod simulates vehicle behavior down to technical detail. Whether you’re looking to traverse vast worlds with a cargo-laden plane or just want to cruise around your base in style, this mod offers unmatched immersion and versatility.

Features:

Realistic Physics: Vehicles are affected by elements like weight, fuel, engine wear, tire pressure, pitch, speed, and surface traction. Planes take off like real aircraft, and cars respond to the environment with authentic driving behavior.
Joystick and Mouse Control: Supports external controllers including flight sticks and steering wheels. For those without a joystick, the mod also includes a mouse yoke system for intuitive control.
In-Game Manual: A built-in guide explains everything from engine mechanics to crafting your first plane, so you don’t have to exit Minecraft to find information.
Fully Customizable Vehicles: Add passenger seats, chests, or custom layouts to your vehicles. Tailor each craft to your needs transport, combat, or resource hauling.
Pack-Based System: Add new vehicles through external content packs, similar to Flan’s Mod. Official and community-made packs are supported, allowing endless expansion.
Working Gauges: Includes a wide range of cockpit instruments altimeters, heading indicators, fuel and oil gauges, and more to replace reliance on the debug screen.
True Lighting Effects: Realistic lighting using OpenGL effects adds ambiance and immersion. Vehicle lights dynamically illuminate the world without causing performance issues.
Mod-Compatible Fuel System: Supports liquid fuels from other mods via Forge integration. Lava is usable by default, and you can pipe in fuel from any external source.
Extensive Config Options: Tweak everything from crafting requirements to render settings. Full support for Forge OreDict ensures seamless integration with other mods.
