Colorful Combat Mod

by JustKevin61

Colorful Combat Mod adds colorful upgrades to iron swords and axes that grant an effect to the player holding them.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverApache License 2.01.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

The upgraded iron swords and axes repurpose an early game weapon so it stays useful later. Holding one applies its effect, and the mod does not add new ores or loot to a world that already exists. Builds cover Forge and NeoForge, for game versions 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, and both sides must run the mod.

Key features

  1. Colorful sword upgrades

    Iron swords gain colorful variants that keep the early game weapon relevant in later play.

  2. Colorful axe upgrades

    Iron axes receive the same colorful treatment, matching the sword variants.

  3. Held-item effects

    The effect of an upgraded weapon applies while the player holds it in hand.
