Sword and armor trims add special abilities to your gear.
50.1 of the 64 points that apply = 78 out of 100. The points above are rounded to whole numbers.
Better Swords Trims adds a smithing template called Spike that lets you apply combat and utility effects to iron-through-netherite swords, using familiar minerals and materials. Quartz grants extra experience for defeating an enemy, emerald makes a struck mob levitate for four seconds, and lapis lazuli makes nearby mobs of the same type glow for 45 seconds. Weeping obsidian deals area damage in a 3×3 zone around the target, redstone slows the struck mob, and copper increases sword durability. You can find the Spike template in chests in classic structures such as villages and pyramids, or craft it from four copper ingots, two emeralds, and one diamond. A configuration file lets you adjust some of the Spike enhancements to suit your preferences.
Written from Modrinth and CurseForge . How we write it
Changes the game's code in 2 areas: Inventory and itemsChanges 4 game code files in this area: items, chests and other containers, crafting and enchanting. and Mobs and their behaviorChanges 1 game code file in this area: mobs, animals, villagers, projectiles and how they move and act..
Adds 25 items and 26 recipes.
Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.
Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.
No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
We found nothing it sends
We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
