CompatLink - Epic Fight Weapons Compat

by qkakak011

CompatLink, a Library for Forge and NeoForge, lets modded weapons use Epic Fight movesets through small JSON files dropped into the config folder.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Epic Fight only recognizes vanilla weapons out of the box. CompatLink fills that gap by reading JSON mappings that assign a weapon type, such as a claymore swinging like a greatsword or a spear thrusting like a spear, to modded items. Mappings can target a single item or a whole mod through wildcards, and a mapping with an exact id takes priority over a wildcard match. Higher priority values win when several mappings overlap.

The mod requires Epic Fight to run. Presets cover the common Epic Fight styles, including swords, greatswords, daggers, axes and bows, and weapon types added by datapacks or other Epic Fight addon mods can be referenced as well. A modpack can therefore borrow movesets from any registered type. Changes apply after a game start or reload, and the log prints a line with how many entity and weapon mappings were applied. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

Key features

  1. JSON weapon mappings

    A small JSON file in the config folder assigns an Epic Fight moveset to a modded weapon without any code.

  2. Wildcards and priorities

    Wildcard patterns map whole mods in one line, while exact ids and higher priority values override them.

  3. Preset and addon movesets

    Epic Fight presets, datapack weapon types and other addon movesets can all be assigned to a modded item.

  4. Load-time log report

    After loading, the log prints a line with the number of entity and weapon mappings applied.
