Old PVP Combat

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.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.20.1
• Forge 47.x
