# What's different compared to the old 1. 7. 10 version?

## Old Look, New Style

Completely revamped textures! For players who prefer nostalgia, you can activate the built-in "The Last Sword Classic Texture Pack" to use the original textures from version 1. 7. 10.

## Modpack Friendly!

This mod introduces a JSON-driven crafting system, allowing you complete freedom to customize recipes for each level of swords and armor. This system is fully compatible with JEI. Additionally, numerous configurable options have been included, enabling you to customize values and functionalities of The Last Sword.

About customization: You can find JSON recipe files under `config/the_last_sword/dragon_crystal_smithing_recipes/`. These files allow you to modify the `template` and `addition` fields freely, corresponding to the 1st and 3rd input slots of the Dragon Crystal Smithing Table.

Nested folder support: You can organize recipe files into subfolders for better management, e.g. `dragon_crystal_smithing_recipes/sword/`, `dragon_crystal_smithing_recipes/armor/`. All `.json` files in nested directories will be loaded automatically.

Disabling recipes: To disable a recipe without deleting it, simply rename the file extension to `.disabled.json` (e.g. `recipe.json` → `recipe.disabled.json`). Files ending with `.disabled.json` will be skipped during loading. This is especially useful for modpack makers who want to disable default recipes via scripts.

Example recipe format: ```json { "type": "the_last_sword:dragon_crystal_smithing", "template": { "item": "the_last_sword:dragon_crystal_upgrade_template" }, "input": { "item": "the_last_sword:dragon_crystal_sword", "inputLevel": 0 }, "addition": { "item": "the_last_sword:dragon_crystal" }, "output": { "item": "the_last_sword:dragon_crystal_sword", "outputLevel": 1 } } ```

## Modernized Damage Values

Considering that most mods in 1. 20. 1 have smaller damage values compared to 1. 7. 10 mods, this version has also been reasonably adjusted. Now, the base damage values are:

• Dragon Crystal Sword: 12
• Dragon Sword: 200
• The Last Sword: 1024

Of course, we also provide configuration options to let players control the damage bonus per upgrade. You can adjust `Increase Value` in `config/TheLastSword-common.toml` to control the damage bonus for levels 0-5, and `Increase Value High Level` to control the damage bonus for levels 6-13.

# How to play?

## Combat Lore

### Absolute Destruction Damage

This is an extremely powerful true damage that bypasses most mods' custom health defenses. It also applies a healing negation debuff for a period of time. When the damage value exceeds the entity's remaining health, it will instantly execute that entity and temporarily prevent that entity type from spawning.

This damage can be dealt not only by players, but also by certain hostile entities. Therefore, players need to avoid being hit by this damage as much as possible—and that requires a new shield attribute.

### Justified Defence Shield

This shield attribute appears as a white shield icon (inspired by Fate/Grand Order*). Each time you take damage, it consumes 1 poin
