About this project

What does Natural Crossbows add?

This mod allows for crossbows to be charged and only firing on release of rightclick much like bows. This slows down the use of crossbows so theyre less for spamming and more natural feeling. This mod also comes with a slight zoom during charging allowing for more focused shots.

This mod is also made to be compatible with Tinkers Construct crossbows.

I made this for use in a modpack of my own but feel free to enjoy.
