This project adds a sword-flight enchantment effect to MC, solving the problem of difficult travel in Minecraft.
FJmode · Sword Flight & Myriad Swords Return 🗡️
「Take the sword as wings and ride the wind · With a single thought, ten thousand swords return to their master 」
FJmode is a Fabric enchantment-expansion mod for Minecraft 26.2, turning your sword from a mere melee tool into your wings — and into a legion of flying blades that fight by your side.
✨ Core Gameplay
🌪️ Sword Flight · 御剑飞行
Ride your sword upon the wind, roaming freely between heaven and earth.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Sword-Riding Flight | Hold a sword enchanted with Sword Flight to enter custom flight — base speed and |
| handling are modeled on vanilla elytra gliding | |
| Authentic Riding Visuals | You stand upright on your blade: the sword in your hand is hidden, and a matching |
| sword is rendered beneath your feet, tilting in sync with your camera pitch | |
| Firework-Style Boost | Press the jump key (Space) mid-flight for a sustained boost just like a vanilla firework — at the cost of extra hunger (before 26.3: use the sprint key / Ctrl). |
| Durability Cost | Flight steadily drains the sword's durability. Plan long journeys wisely! |
⚖️ Balance: while holding a Sword Flight blade, all entity melee attacks — including sweep attacks — are disabled. Even the client won't send attack packets, so no accidental swings.
⚔️ Myriad Swords Return · 万剑归宗
One sword soars, ten thousand follow. One thought stirs — and the enemy falls.
How to use:
- Enchant a sword with Myriad Swords Return — available from the enchanting table (max level I, weight 10, a moderately rare non-treasure enchantment that also appears in random loot).
- Hold right-click to charge with a trident-style animation, then release — the sword truly leaves your hand and becomes a flying blade.
- Launch more swords to grow your formation — multiple flying swords can orbit you at once.
- Hit any mob — melee or projectile — to mark it as the swarm's target, and watch the blades dive.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Charged Launch | Trident-style charge & release; the real sword leaves your main hand and joins a |
| server-managed flying sword pool | |
| 3D Sword Formation | Flying swords orbit above you in an expanded three-dimensional formation — wider radius, |
| layered heights, vertical waves, and pitched swarm trajectories | |
| Smart Target Lock | Landing a melee hit or a projectile hit marks the victim as the swarm's current target |
| Guaranteed-Hit Strike | One sample sword solves an interception course; the whole swarm reuses it and dives |
| together | |
| Combined Damage | On impact, damage is settled once as the sum of every participating sword — |
| including base attack damage and enchantment damage modifiers — followed by post-attack enchantment effects (e.g. Fire | |
| Aspect) | |
| Cyclic Combat | After the hit, swords punch through with a slight upward drift, rejoin the formation, and can |
| immediately lock onto a new target for sustained pressure | |
| No Timeout Mid-Chase | The 60-second lifetime pauses while chasing, rebounding, or regrouping — your |
| swords will never vanish mid-strike | |
| Channeling | If any sword participating in a successful strike has Channeling, the swarm summons one lightning bolt at the target during a thunderstorm, provided the target has an unobstructed view of the sky |
♻️ Getting Your Swords Back
| Situation | What happens |
|---|---|
| 60s lifetime ends (no Loyalty) | Each sword materializes as a real blade entity that keeps a little |
| momentum, sticks into the first block it hits, and waits for you to retrieve it | |
| 60s lifetime ends (with Loyalty) | Swords fly back to you — straight into your inventory, or sticking into |
| the ground at your feet if it's full | |
| Logout / disconnect / server stop | All airborne swords instantly materialize, fall naturally, and stick into |
| the ground where they land — nothing is ever lost |
Loyalty and Channeling can now be applied to swords. Loyalty brings expired flying swords back to you, while Channeling adds lightning to successful flying-sword strikes. Riptide and Impaling remain trident-only under normal enchanting rules; vanilla Creative-mode anvils bypass item restrictions.
⚖️ Balance & Fair Play
- Holding a Sword Flight blade disables all entity melee attacks and sweep attacks (enforced on both client and server)
- Flight and boosting are paid for with durability and hunger
- Flying swords are server-side objects — all hit detection and damage are computed on the server, keeping behavior consistent and cheat-resistant in multiplayer
🎨 Visual Highlights
- Sword Flight: the blade under your feet rotates in real time with your flight direction and camera pitch — no awkward poses
- Myriad Swords Return: client-side smooth interpolation plus velocity-based orientation keep the swarm fluid and jitter-free, with a 45° model offset so every sword tip points exactly along its path
❓ FAQ
Q: Will I ever lose my swords? A: No. In every end-of-life or disconnect scenario, flying swords materialize and stick into blocks, waiting for you to pick them up.
Q: How much damage does the swarm deal? A: One combined hit equal to the sum of all participating swords' damage, enchantment modifiers included.
Q: Does it work with vanilla enchantments? A: Yes. Flying-sword strikes include enchantment damage bonuses and post-attack effects. Loyalty and Channeling can also be applied to swords.
Q: Why isn't Channeling summoning lightning?
A: Channeling requires a thunderstorm and an unobstructed view of the sky at the target. Ordinary rain is not enough. Use /weather thunder when testing, and make sure at least one sword participating in the strike has Channeling.
Q: Do I need it on the server? A: Yes — the mod must be installed on both client and server.
