long swords and battle axes mod by pisankus
Long Swords and Battle Axes adds two classes of melee weapons for Fabric, each with its own swing animation, cooldown ability and reach.
What it does
Both weapon types are modeled as multi-element 3D voxel shapes, with diamond-shaped pommels, leather-wrapped grips and sharp tapering blades on the swords, and extended handles, dual-leather grips and crescent double heads on the axes. The inventory uses isometric 3D rendering so each weapon reads as heavy when it is shown in a slot. Plunging attacks come from a custom animation engine that changes the held item's motion during a falling strike.
Swords carry a rapid sweeping diagonal slash, while axes deliver a heavy overhead crush. Each weapon has a right-click ability on its own cooldown: the long sword dashes forward on a 5 second cooldown, and the battle axe throws ground blocks into the air and releases a shockwave on a 7 second cooldown. The mod works on Fabric and needs the same version on both the server and each client. Files are published for 26.2 only.
Key features
Voxel weapon models
Each sword and axe is built from several 3D elements, so the held shape and the inventory icon match the weapon's form.
Plunging strike animation
A falling attack shifts the held weapon through a downward arc of about 150 degrees, with separate motions for swords and axes.
Cooldown abilities
The long sword's dash and the battle axe's ground smash each trigger on right-click and recharge over a fixed time.
Extended reach
Long swords give one extra block of interaction range, while battle axes can take both axe and sword enchantments.
