Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Resource pack only.

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.

Comparison

Low Shield simply reduces the height of the shield in first-person, making sure it doesn't block your view during your gameplay, especially during combat.

Shield is lowered by 2.75 units and blocking is lowered by 3 units respectively.
[MC-98631] Fixed a bug where the shield on the right hand appears higher than the left (1.21.11 and below).

How it works 🧠

The shield’s position is lowered by adjusting some Y value changes in the model file making sure that it always appears low when blocking or just held.

This resource pack is always up to date and regularly tested to check for version compatibility, new file updates, and bugs.
