Offhand Freedom

Offhand Freedom

Offhand Freedom adds functional Java-style offhand gameplay using normal vanilla items, quick controls, block placement, buckets, projectiles, and dynamic lighting.

Features

• Vanilla Items Only: No custom items or crafting recipes.
• Quick Hand Swapping: Double crouch to move an item between your main hand and offhand.
• Block Placement: Place many supported blocks directly from your offhand.
• Dynamic Lighting: Supported glowing items produce light while held.
• Bucket Support: Use water, lava, powder snow, fish buckets, and empty buckets.
• Farming Support: Plant crops while keeping a tool in your main hand.
• Projectile Support: Use eggs, snowballs, wind charges, ender pearls, XP bottles, and fireworks.
• Main-Hand Priority: Tools remain usable for mining, tilling, stripping logs, and other actions.
