Nice bow mod
it would be great if compatible with animalia mod
Probably the best bows mod as of today
It tries to simulate physics, arrows stick to the surface they hit, proper sounds. Nice :D
Works in a heavily modded game
I've tried the X Bows mod before this one, and ran into a problem where the arrows in that mod wouldn't fire. It just consumed the ammo.
However, seeing this mod is a fork off of that one I had to see if this one worked. And it does work! Now I can fire arrows off at enemies and monsters within caves or at night. I'm definitely keeping this one in my mod list, thanks so much!
One mod conflict I have come across is that mobs from the Animalia mod, when shot, have absolutely MASSIVE arrows jutting out of them. I've tested other mobs from other mods that I'm using and the arrows are all normal sized. My guess is that the Animalia mobs have something that scales them or their dimensions up causing this visual issue. Nothing to do with this mod.
Good work
You should try adding explosive arrows and torch arrows, that would be great and super useful.-
Works great
