Description from the author on Modrinth

Introduction

This mod changes the combat system to an improved version, partly based on 'Better Combat' and 'Epic Fight', but in my own way.
This is an early version, it only supports swords (mainly Vanilla and only partially for custom ones)

Functions

  • Restored sword blocking (Partial functionality in the ALPHA version)
  • Changed attack animation (maybe not as good as Epic Fight's, but good enough)
  • Changed sword mechanics (left button - normal attack, right button - wide attack)
  • 3 Special attacks triggered by default with the keys z, x, c (require filling a special meter)

Additionally required Mods

The mod works almost on its own, only the "UI API List" is required; the mod uses a different way of animating the player, so the "Player Animator" isn’tneeded.

Important!

The mod isn't an add-on for "Better Combat" and "Epic Fight," it's a separate mod and almost certainly isn't compatible with those mods.

In the future
-Support for Axes and Maces
-Fixing bugs
-Animation upgrade
-Trailer Video
-Support for some mods

  • support for 1.20.1 Forge (at least partial)
  • Configuration commands

Known bugs
Double-performed third-person animation - Only in third-person mode, other players see you normally (the bug doesn't always happen)
Problems with canceling sword blocking and being able to switch items while blocking
