Changelog

End of Life:

This is the last update for New Sword Blocking, adding support for Minecraft Java 1.21.6.

Maintaining multiple data packs takes more time that I would rather focus elsewhere, and there are better alternatives to New Sword Blocking that I’d personally use instead:

  • Old Combat Datapack – Fully customizable classic combat.
  • Sword Blocking – Just sword blocking, nothing extra.
  • Vanilla Sword Blocking – Blocks damage and works with all swords.

Apologies for any inconvenience!

Changelog:

Technical Changes:

  • Updated for Minecraft Java 1.21.6

Compatibility:

  • Fabric & Quilt with Fabric API for 1.21.5/1.21.6

Support:

Please report any issues on GitHub or Discord.
