This throwable weapons system was designed for MC Gameshow Network's Hunger Games.

 

Throwable weapons don't really exist in Minecraft, the only weapon of the sort is the Trident, which you cannot replace the model with at all without external mods, not even through a resource pack. So, I decided to make it a possibility, intended for advanced customization.

​

Through a custom weapons system I made, any weapon with any model, item type, damage, etc. can be defined as a throwable weapon. Similar to the trident, players can press and hold LMB to wind up their power. Upon release, they'll throw the weapon.

​

If it hits a player, it deals damage. If it misses and hits a block, it will be stuck in the block. Players can pick up thrown weapons that are stuck in blocks.
