Installation & Setup
Shingeki no Craft ships as a datapack (plus an optional mod/packaged version) and requires a resource pack — without it, Titans have no models, textures or sounds.
The current release is 2.4.1 (30 March 2026) and targets Minecraft 1.21.11. The datapack, mod and resource pack must all be the same version.
