Polaris animation for punchy (北极星) - Delta Force Inspired Sword Animations
RESOURCEPACKA resource pack for the Punchy mod that replaces sword animations with three-stage attacks and unique sheathing inspired by Delta Force's Polaris weapon.
This resource pack is built specifically for players who use the Punchy mod and want a more tactical, weapon-inspired feel for their sword combat. It addresses a common gap in vanilla-style resource packs: the lack of distinct, multi-phase attack animations that make melee encounters feel weighty and deliberate. By drawing direct inspiration from the Polaris weapon in Delta Force, this pack provides a set of replacement animations that introduce a three-stage attack sequence and a separate sheathing animation for each stage.
The primary audience is Minecraft players who already have the Punchy mod installed and are looking for a polished, combat-oriented visual upgrade. Whether you're building a PvP map, recording cinematic battles, or simply prefer a more grounded, military-style aesthetic for your character's sword swings, this resource pack delivers a clear, responsive visual feedback system. Each attack stage has its own unique sheathing animation, which helps players track their combo state and adds a layer of readability to combat.
- Three-stage attack sequence – Each swing in the combo has a distinct animation, avoiding the repetitive feel of default sword swings.
- Separate sheathing animations – After each attack stage, the sheathing motion changes, giving visual indication of your current combo step.
- Inspired by Delta Force's Polaris weapon – The animations replicate the crisp, angular movements seen in the tactical shooter for a more grounded combat feel.
- Lightweight design – Only replaces the relevant Punchy mod animation files, so it has minimal impact on performance.
- Easy installation – Place the resource pack in your resourcepacks folder and ensure Punchy mod is active; no additional configuration needed.
Requirements: This resource pack requires the Punchy mod to be installed and enabled in your Minecraft instance. It is designed for the latest versions of the mod (1.20+ compatible). The pack does not modify textures, sounds, or any other game assets—only the sword animation data. It will not work without the Punchy mod. Be aware that because the animations are tied to the mod's custom combat system, vanilla sword attacks will not change. This pack is also not compatible with other resource packs that replace the same animation files; load it with higher priority if conflicts occur.
