JustTimm's Lightsaber Workshop
JustTimm's Lightsaber Workshop resource pack brings the legendary lightsabers from the Star Wars universe to life in Minecraft. For proper functionality in versions 1.17–1.21.4, OptiFine CIT is required, while starting from version 1.21.5+, Vanilla CIT capabilities are utilized. The collection features numerous unique lightsaber models that preserve the original spirit while seamlessly blending with the vanilla aesthetic of the game.
🎯 How It Works
To obtain any of the custom items, you'll need an anvil and a base item.
Example: To get Luke Skywalker's Green Lightsaber, place any sword or stick in the first slot of the anvil and change its name. Enchantment is not required.
