About this Mod

This mod's purpose is to add new weapons to Minecraft because I felt that there weren't enough. It adds swords and ranged weapons. There will be more weapons in future updates as well.
List of what could be added:

More Swords
Ores
More ranged weapons
New projectiles
And more as I think.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sword Variants server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Sword Variants compatible with forge?

Sword Variants officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Sword Variants – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Sword Variants consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
