I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
This Datapack/mod of Better Combat causes several weapons that are used to 2 hands can be used with one hand (enabling being able to use totem, shield or other item in the secondary hand, even the same weapon in the secondary hand)
Now some weapons have some new attacks and, depending on the weapon, some may do more damage with a specific blow.
Example: the axe = now has a third attack that does 25% of additional damage (with its own distinctive animation)
