SMP PVP MODE
by Tianyi6233
SMP PVP Mode gives NeoForge servers instant 1v1 arena duels that players start with a command, and it restores each player's gear and stats afterward.
What it does
Players start a 1v1 duel with a command and are sent into an arena. Two arena modes are available. Generate Mode builds a temporary arena for each battle and removes it afterward, which keeps the main world clean. TP Mode uses pre-built arenas and teleports players to configured spawn points. Several arenas can run at once, and occupancy detection keeps two duels from using the same space.
Before a battle, the mod saves each player's health, hunger and equipment, then hands out temporary gear for the fight. Equipment covers helmets, chestplates, leggings, boots and shields across 9- and 27-slot layouts, and enchantments can be set in configuration. When a duel ends, health, hunger and the original inventory are restored. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and it is published for NeoForge 1.21.1 and newer builds through 26.2, under the MIT License without being open source.
Key features
Instant 1v1 duels
A duel command starts a one-on-one arena fight, and a duel list shows the matches currently running.
Generated arenas
Generate Mode creates a three-layer arena with bedrock, grass and light blocks, then removes it once the battle is over.
Pre-built arena spawns
TP Mode sends players to configured spawn points inside arenas that were built in advance.
Saved player state
Health, hunger and the original equipment are stored before a battle and restored when it ends.
Configurable gear
Temporary equipment can be set per slot, with enchantments, so each duel can use the same kit.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners who run PVP on Paper or NeoForge servers and want managed duels with automatic cleanup. Players only need to join the server, because the mod is not required on the client.
How it compares
PVP Arena runs on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.21.5 – 26.3 and is server required with an optional client, under the MIT License. PvP Training Mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.19.2 – 26.2 and needs both client and server, also under the MIT License. SMP PVP Mode is limited to NeoForge and is server-side only, so it adds nothing to a player's client.
