Ultimate Swords is a Fabric-based Minecraft mod that introduces a collection of powerful and unique custom swords into the game. These swords are designed to offer distinct gameplay experiences and combat advantages, pushing the boundaries of what a melee weapon can be in Minecraft.

A core design principle of Ultimate Swords is the complete absence of traditional Minecraft enchantments on any of our custom swords. All inherent abilities and power of these weapons come from their base statistics and unique built-in properties. This decision was made to simplify the power curve, encourage strategic use of specific sword types, and provide a fresh combat experience unreliant on the enchantment system.

You will not be able to apply vanilla enchantments (like Sharpness, Looting, Unbreaking, Mending, etc.) to any sword added by this mod.

If you wish to contribute to Ultimate Swords or set up a development environment:

• Java Development Kit (JDK) 21 or newer: Ensure you have JDK 21 installed and configured on your system.
• Git: For cloning the repository and version control.
• A text editor or IDE: Such as IntelliJ IDEA (recommended for Fabric development) or VS Code.

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone [https://github.com/ViratS-best/Ultimate-Swords.git](https://github.com/ViratS-best/Ultimate-Swords.git)
   
   cd Ultimate-Swords

2. Setup Development Environment: The project uses Gradle for dependency management and building..

   ./gradlew cleanEclipse # If using Eclipse
   ./gradlew cleanIdea    # If using IntelliJ IDEA
   ./gradlew genSources   # Generates source code for dependencies
   ./gradlew build        # Builds the project

   If you're using IntelliJ IDEA, import the project as a Gradle project.

3. Run Client (for testing): This command will launch a Minecraft client with your mod loaded..

   ./gradlew runClient

   If you encounter Plugin [id: 'fabric-loom', version: '1.7.0'] was not found or similar errors, ensure you have a stable internet connection and try cleaning Gradle caches:

   ./gradlew --stop
   rm -rf  ~/.gradle/
   rm -rf build/ .gradle/
   ./gradlew runClient --refresh-dependencies --info --debugug

To create a distributable .jar file of your mod:

./gradlew build
