Better Combat Punchy Fix
Client-side compatibility fix for using Better Combat and Punchy together with shaders on NeoForge.
Some shader pipelines can make the first-person item render twice during Better Combat attacks when Punchy is installed. This mod suppresses the vanilla/Punchy first-person render only while Better Combat's real attack animation layer is active, then resets Punchy's transient pose state once the attack ends.
What it does
- Fixes duplicated first-person weapons during Better Combat attacks.
- Keeps Better Combat attack animations visible.
- Keeps Punchy enabled outside active Better Combat attack animations.
- Does not change damage, cooldowns, hitboxes, attack speed, networking, or server behavior.
Requirements
- Minecraft 1.21.1
- NeoForge
- Better Combat
- Punchy
This mod is client-side only and can be used on vanilla or modded servers.
