About
Visceral Combat enhances Better Combat’s melee feel with more responsive, weighty attacks that use movement and momentum. Its configurable attack lunge has Arcade, Dueling, and Hybrid modes, and can optionally use recovering charges to limit how often players lunge. On a connecting hit, configurable impact physics can add recoil to the attacker and directional knockback to the target, while independently toggled hitstop briefly freezes either one. Weapon swings draw arc-shaped slash ribbons that trace Better Combat’s damage volume, flash red when a hit connects, and fade back to white; players can configure whether the ribbons appear and whether they replace the original trails. Target assist ranges from fully manual aim to slight swing tracking and a target-aware lunge that bends toward an acquired enemy; it can highlight targets and optionally mark them with a ground ring. An optional holstered stance grants a configurable sprint-speed multiplier, and server-synced configuration governs gameplay for connected players.

Security
No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them.
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.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.4 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. All 4 are for recent versions. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
- Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.Read without running it
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
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.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.The code of all 4 files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
We have not read its code history yet.
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.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
- Code historyThe public code on GitHub: who made each change, credit lines such as "Co-authored-by", and its files.Not read yet
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found38 of 40 changelogs read

Known conflicts
These projects do not work together with Visceral Combat: their authors or Visceral Combat's author say so. If you install both, the game can crash or some features can stop working. Some of them do the same job as Visceral Combat, so you only need one.
