Better Combat to Figura Compatibility Layer
by SappyEddie
Better Combat to Figura Compatibility Layer lets Figura avatar held items follow Better Combat weapon attack animations.
What it does
Figura draws held items through its own item pivot bones and cancels vanilla item rendering, which stops Better Combat and PlayerAnimator from rotating the weapon during an attack. This layer captures each hand's weapon transform from PlayerAnimator before Figura takes over, then reapplies it to the item pivot matrix so the weapon follows the swing. Only the client needs it, and it requires Better Combat and Figura. Builds exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, under All rights reserved.
Key features

Stabs and slashes
Thrusts point in the correct direction and slashes arc as Better Combat defines them on Figura avatars.
Per-hand weapon capture
The transform of each hand is captured before Figura cancels vanilla rendering, keeping the animation intact.

The result: your arm swings correctly, but the weapon itself doesn't rotate with the attack - stabs…
