3.3.4 - Minecraft 26.3 Compatibility Fix

Available for both Fabric and NeoForge.

Fixed

• Crash on Minecraft 26.3 when a ranged mob switched to melee. Skeletons, Strays, Pillagers, Piglins and any mob listed in customRangedMobs could crash the game or server the moment they swung their melee weapon at a player.

• Same crash risk in the fallback melee behavior used for ranged mobs that are not standard pathfinding mobs.

• Passive Mob Aggression on Fabric used the same attack animation call and is now protected as well.

• NeoForge failed to start on Minecraft 26.3. NeoForge 26.3 renamed its COMMON config type to LOCAL, which stopped the mod from loading. BuffMobs now detects the correct type automatically, so it works on 26.1, 26.2 and 26.3.

• NeoForge crash on Minecraft 26.3 during melee hits. The knockback sync used a field that no longer exists in 26.3. It is now resolved safely at runtime.

Improved

• Melee swing animations are now handled in a version-safe way, so the mod keeps working across Minecraft 26.1, 26.2 and 26.3.
• If a swing animation ever cannot be played, the mob still attacks normally and a warning is logged instead of crashing.

Notes

• No configuration changes. Your existing config files keep working as-is.
• No gameplay changes: melee and kite behavior, weapons, enchantments and scaling are unchanged.
