Old swords
by stachu136
Old swords brings the older sword models and classic combat feel to Fabric games on 1.21.8 – 1.21.11.
What it does
Swords in this mod follow the classic versions, and the hitting animations return to the older style. It is built for players who want the earlier fighting feel while playing on modern builds. Client and server both need it, so the server and every player install it. Builds cover 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11 on Fabric, and the mod is all rights reserved, not open source.
