This mod includes several one-handed, two-handed and dual wielded attack animation resources.
No more pixel hunting with your cursor, you can now just swing your weapon and hit whatever is in the way. Enjoy playing in third person view. :)
Attacks have an upswing phase before the hit is actually performed, like in real life.
Some weapons have a sequence of different attacks.
Dual wield any one handed weapons! Use the attack hotkey to alternately attack with main-hand and off-hand.
Weapon swing hitting multiple enemies deal reduced damage. To deal full weapon damage against all targets, you need to have Sweeping Edge enchantment.
Hold the attack hotkey to spam attacks on cooldown (configurable).
Attack instead of mining zero hardness blocks (configurable).
Automatic compatibility with most mods (weapons without attribute file, will be automatically assigned a matching weapon preset, based on item id).
Super easy to add dedicated compatibility, support via Discord for partnering modders.
Add uniquely created or out of the box behaviour to any weapon from any mod, by just creating JSON data files.
Check out our integration guide here.
Client side settings can be accessed via the Mod Menu.
Server side config can be found at:
General properties: config/bettercombat/server.conf
Fallback compatibility: config/bettercombat/fallback_config.conf
Automatically created with default values, upon loading any game world for the first time.
With an open source and modular mindset, this project is aiming for maximal compatibility. However, mods trying to change the same mechanics will never be compatible (such as dual wielding mods).
We partnered up with the following mods, to fully utilise the JSON API of Better Combat:
