I wanted this datapack to be as efficient as possible and if I wanted to make so you couldn&#8217;t go through the ground I would need to simulate gravity using block displays and that will be less efficient and more time consuming. I know this sounds lame as this is a &#8220;bug&#8221;, but don&#8217;t worry, I will come back and &#8220;fix&#8221; it someday, but for now I&#8217;m working on more important projects that deserve most of my time and this datapack was ment to be a quick side project, nothing too complex, so we will need to wait a bit until I update it. It will happen, but not now.<\/p>\n<p>#### Q: Does it have multiplayer compatibility?<\/p>\n<p>A: Yes it does.<\/p>\n<p>#### Q: Does this datapack work on older\/newer versions?<\/p>\n<p>A: This datapack doens&#8217;t work on older versions than 1.21 (simply because the mace wasn&#8217;t added yet). If for whatever reason you want to use it in a newer version and the official update hasn&#8217;t happened just download the lastest version and change inside the `pack.mcmeta` of the datapack the &#8220;pack_format&#8221; value to the desired one (it may not work or at least not as intended).<\/p>\n<p>#### Q: Can I modify the datapack and redistribute it?<\/p>\n<p>A: Yes you can, but only if you say who the original creator is (Eclipse Studios) and if you link the original Modrinth page somewhere noticeable in the project.<\/p>\n<p>#### Q: Are you guys going to make more datapacks?<\/p>\n<p>A: Of course! This datapack is a side project I made while making another massive datapack. For more updates about it join our discord server!.<\/p>\n<p>#### Q: Is this datapack compatible with other datapacks?<\/p>\n<p>A: Yes it is. This datapack follows the Smithed conventions to ensure datapack compatibility.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n    \ud83d\ude4b Authors<br \/>\n  <\/summary>\n<p>&#8211; Team: Eclipse Studios<br \/>\n    &#8211; Main dev: @ElGeroIngles<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n    \ud83d\uddd1\ufe0f Uninstall<br \/>\n  <\/summary>\n<p>To uninstall the datapack run `\/function mace:unistall` before removing it from the datapacks folder, that will remove all scoreboards and more stuff that the datapack uses.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n    \ud83d\udc1b Bug Report &#038; \ud83d\udca1 Suggestions<br \/>\n  <\/summary>\n<p>If you have found any bugs or have any suggestion, please reach out to us at our discord server.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>\n    \ud83e\uddd1\u200d\u2696\ufe0f License<br \/>\n  <\/summary>\n<p>Apache License 2.0<\/p>\n<\/details>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This datapack\/mod makes so the smash attack of the mace feels like a real smash attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":96998,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"mace","_minecraft_project_id":"C36CZGrl","_minecraft_author":"EclipseStudios","_minecraft_license":"Apache-2.0","_minecraft_downloads":64519,"_minecraft_follows":74,"_minecraft_client_side":"unknown","_minecraft_server_side":"unknown","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"mace.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":153375,"_minecraft_version_count":18,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T19:05:53.637964Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2024-06-18T01:20:04.853281Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-03-30T11:16:31.031345Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/mace","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":96998,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-05T13:33:35+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"be18e8e5c0aeef0f292c0e76903ae6aa","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[87,84,156,88,97,104,89,158,98],"mod_loader":[86,99,106,160,100],"minecraft_version":[62,37,40,41,73,74,38,78,79,80,81,82,83,167,163],"class_list":["post-96997","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-adventure","mod_category-datapack","mod_category-decoration","mod_category-equipment","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-forge","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-neoforge","mod_category-quilt","mod_loader-datapack","mod_loader-fabric","mod_loader-forge","mod_loader-neoforge","mod_loader-quilt","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9","minecraft_version-26-1","minecraft_version-26-1-1","minecraft_version-26-1-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
