Rent Server with this Mod

About this Mod

OldPVP

Brings back pre-1.9 combat by removing the attack cooldown for all players on the server.

How it works

When a player joins or respawns, the mod runs:

attribute <name> minecraft:generic.attack_speed base set 9999999999.0

for each online player by name. No selectors, no client-side code — just a direct attribute command executed through the server console.

Command

/oldpvp <true|false>

Value	Effect
`true`	Enables legacy combat — attack speed set to `9999999999.0` (no cooldown)
`false`	Restores vanilla combat — attack speed reset to `4.0`

Requires OP level 2. Applies instantly to every online player.

Installation

Drop the .jar into the server's mods/ folder.
Clients do not need the mod installed.
