Description
New Better Combat
New Better Combat is an independent NeoForge combat mod for Minecraft / NeoForge 26.1.2 and 26.2.
It adds configurable melee combat improvements, including enhanced main-hand attacks, off-hand weapon attacks, optional wider melee hit detection, optional longer reach, random critical hits, sprint-friendly attacking, sweep attack options, extra combat sounds, protected entity settings, and an in-game configuration screen.
This project is inspired by Better Combat Rebirth by SanAndreasP, but it is an independent implementation. It is not a fork, not an official update, and not affiliated with the original author.
