DoubleHands - True Universal Offhand for Bedrock

Lore: True mastery of survival requires the use of both hands. A torch or tool is just as effective in the left hand as it is in the right.

WARNING: MCPEDL, CURSEFORGE and OlcanoMods are the only official platforms for this addon, all others are stolen uploads. Do not download them.

DoubleHands: Universal and Functional Java-Style Offhand for Minecraft Bedrock

DoubleHands is a revolutionary :) Minecraft Bedrock addon designed to bring Java Edition offhand parity to your world. If you've ever wondered how to use a torch in your offhand on Bedrock or wanted to place blocks while holding a tool, this is the solution. Unlike basic cosmetic mods, this functional offhand addon allows you to hold and use items in your left hand exactly like the Java Edition. (This paragraph was mostly just for google search visibility, don't worry bout that lol)

This addon is compatible with Minecraft Bedrock 1.21+ (currently updated for latest 26.45), it works without any issues on Realms, Dedicated Servers (BDS), and single-player worlds and all of them have proper activation methods. Whether you need a amod for combat or offhand for mining, DoubleHands provides a almost-java for all bugrock, i mean bedrock players.


If you want java pvp addon that works perfectly with doublehands and enables more features, Go check out my addon called Sweep - Java PVP.

This addon allows you to put all items and blocks in off-hand, and also makes it possible to place blocks  AND USE MOST ITEMS (just a few exceptions) from off-hand if main hand is empty or has a tool. (Just like java edition). It also allows for use of projectiles like wind charges, eggs from offhand (with some exceptions) and moreeee. basically in one line:

"THIS IS THE TRUE UNIVERSAL OFFHAND ADDON FOR BEDROCK."


Features:

AUTHENTIC VISUALS along with all the mechanics:

This addon not only has feature parity with java edition, IT ALSO HAS EXACT VISUAL SLOT ASWELL. Proper block use counts, sizes, all items visible in proper java slot: (Only Available after v5.0.0)

Mini Usage Guide:

To swap items to offhand, you have 4 different ways: 

  1. Use the emote "overthere" and it will move your current item to offhand (Works for All devices)DoubleHands - Functional Offhand like Java edition (MCPE PC etc) — Minecraft Bedrock addon, screenshot 3
  2. Double Sneak Quickly (only possible on new phone controls, PC, and Consoles)
  3. You can use the command /swap to move item to offhand:DoubleHands - Functional Offhand like Java edition (MCPE PC etc) — Minecraft Bedrock addon, screenshot 4
  4. And the best one for keyboard users, in mc version 26.0, there is an option to set custom key maps, so you can press a key on keyboard to move item to offhand easily. set it up like in image (Only works If you have a keyboard)**:
    **DoubleHands - Functional Offhand like Java edition (MCPE PC etc) — Minecraft Bedrock addon, screenshot 5

Then if you have a tool in your hand (or nothing), blocks in your off-hand will be used instead (just like java edition).


**Settings and Enable/Disable the Swapping methods:

**

You can use the command 

/settings

to open settings menu, it allows you to disable or enable specific swap methods that are listed above, by default, all methods are enabled.

Installation:

Import the .mcpack and apply it on world, no experiments needed


Known Limitations (These are not fixable for now due to bedrock's limitations)

Feature Limitations:

26.20 and above (use versions older than 3.5.0 for older game versions)

This pack doesn't use experiments, so it will continue to work as intended even after updates to game.

It also doesn't use player.json, so it will be compatible with all other addons (theoretically)
