Chaos Mace
by stormiecz
Chaos Mace is a Fabric game mechanics mod for 1.21.8 that plays a music track when a player is using a mace.
What it does
The mod plays the CHAOS CONSTRUCT track when it detects that the player is wielding a mace. The author describes the detection as more PvP-oriented and says it still needs some work, and notes that the project may be abandoned. Chaos Mace is client-side only, so only the player's own client needs it; servers run without it. It requires Fabric API and is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source. Its files cover 1.21.8 only, with 2.4.6 as the latest build, published 2025-12-01.

Mace detection
The mod checks for a mace in the player's hand to decide when the music should play.

What the author says
This mod plays the chaos construct song when ever it detects you using a mace. The detection is kinda more pvp based but it should work to some basic needs, it needs some work. Probably will abbandon.
