🧟 Rick Grimes' Duty Belt | The Walking Dead

# Rick Grimes' Duty Belt | The Walking Dead

Build your loadout. Search abandoned compounds. Survive the world that comes after.

Bring The Walking Dead into Minecraft with a modular duty belt, wearable survivor equipment, animated melee weapons, Whisperer disguises and abandoned CRM bases. Start with Rick's sheriff gear, assemble a military loadout, or carry the weapons and supplies that suit your own survivor.

**Minecraft Java 1.20.1 · Forge · Client & Server**

## 🤠 Build your own duty belt

Carry your equipment on your character with a customizable belt and dedicated carrier storage.

- Configure eight MOLLE attachment positions with overlap prevention.
- Fit pistol holsters, utility pouches, handcuff cases, speedloader cases and weapon carriers.
- Carry a folded knife or ammunition stack in the utility pouch.
- Draw and stow supported equipment using shortcuts or the quick-selection wheel.
- Choose leather colours, finishes and season-inspired appearances.
- Keep your saved loadout and stored items when using supported upgrades.

Complete the outfit with Rick's sheriff hat and a separate Sheriff Badge. Move the badge between hat, shirt and belt mounts; removing it from its Curios slot also removes it from the hat. Clean a dirty hat and maintain your leather gear as you survive.

## ⚔️ Iconic melee weapons

### Lucille & Christmas Lucille

Negan's barbed-wire bat joins the arsenal with a restrained pixel finish, irregular wire and custom first-person and third-person presentation.

- Hits apply **Dripping**, a five-second poison-like bleed that stops at one health.
- Your first successful hit unlocks **Lucille is thirsty**.
- Kills stain the bat with blood. After 20 seconds at normal server speed, a short cleaning animation sheds the blood and clears it.
- Christmas Lucille adds blinking lights, tinsel and temporary nearby illumination while held.
- The revised third-person carry places Lucille over the shoulder with a shared hand-and-weapon grip.

### Michonne's Katana, Rick's hatchet & red machete

Fight with recognizable survivor weapons, custom melee movement and animated drawing and stowing. The katana has its own low carry and draw/strike presentation. Display a katana, Lucille or Rick's machete on the two-block **Survivor Weapon Stand**, then retrieve the same stored weapon.

### Three folding knives

Choose the **Gerber DMF**, **Gerber 06 FAST** or **Southern Grind Monkey**. Each has its own hinged blade and opening/closing animations, with support for utility-pouch storage.

## 🪖 CRM equipment & abandoned bases

Explore a **129 × 111-block CRM compound** with irregularly rotated containers, guard towers, emergency lights, large chemical cargo racks, an aid station, a damaged hangar, a service garage and a command building.

The yard contains **24 shipping containers** with animated double doors and internal supply cases. Open the cases through a custom inventory screen; their lids animate and stay open after you leave. Some are empty. Others contain scarce military supplies.

With TaCZ installed, new bases include a rare rifle cache and a sidearm cache, alongside matching ammunition and supported suppressors, optics and grips. Loot is checked against the installed gun pack, and opened containers do not refill. CRM loot excludes Rick's police equipment.

Equip a separate **CRM uniform, helmet and belt**:

- Diamond-tier armor protection and durability, plus knockback resistance.
- Poison filtering while wearing the full armor set.
- A raised 3D vest, pouches and guards, with gloves visible in first person.
- Black and neutral gray materials, with optional **Red Stripe** livery.
- A drop-leg pistol holster, utility pouch and grenade pouch for the CRM belt.
- Fragmentation grenades that leave terrain intact, and smoke grenades for temporary concealment.

New bases use randomized regions approximately 3,008 blocks wide. High mountain and steep sites are skipped, and accepted sites receive a supported pad with overhead terrain cleared to prevent burial. This is regional spacing, not an exact distance between every base.

Find a base with `/locate structure rickgrimesbelt:crm_forward_base` or `/crm_base locate`.

## 🧟 Whisperers & survivor supplies

Wear a **Whisperer Mask** in its dedicated Curios slot to disguise yourself from mobs, including compatible modded creatures. Choose Weathered, Stitched or Flayed appearances, or use a **Walker Scent Jar** for 90 seconds of temporary camouflage.

Masks have an independent **10% drop chance from mobs**, including modded mobs. Cured Walker Hides, masks and scent also have crafting recipes.

Add a two-block Whisperer Warning marker or Terminus-themed signs to your survivor settlement.

## 🚔 Search village police stations

Police stations use an **80% selection roll for newly generated villages**, subject to suitable terrain and placement checks.

Search offices, personnel lockers and the basement armory for sheriff equipment, supplies and rare firearms when TaCZ is installed. Every new station has a reusable key bound to its weapon lockers, hidden somewhere in accessible station storage.

Police Handcuffs have individually paired keys. Restrained players move slowly, hold their hands behind their back and work through a visible escape-progress bar with repeated efforts. Breaking free takes sustained effort. Creative master keys provide convenient access when building or testing.

## 🛠️ Storage, maintenance & presentation

Belts, carriers and leather equipment have condition and repair systems. Maintain an equipped leather set with leather, care for speedloaders with iron nuggets, and customize your gear through the maintenance menu.

Custom storage includes modeled frames, recessed panels, handles, animated doors and persistent-open lids, with original material-specific sounds. Blocks and storage use **AEtro Design** materials; weapons and wearable equipment keep their own angular pixel style.

Four Creative tabs separate **belts & carriers**, **armor & masks**, **weapons** and **blocks & storage**.

## 🎮 Default controls
