Crossbows fire a greater distance than bows and some bolts do more damage than arrows. The order the bolts fire in is; Obsidian, Diamond, Glass, Blaze, TNT, Iron, Stone, Gold, Wooden. Blaze bolts light mobs on fire. Lava Bolts (Created by the Lava Crossbow) light everything on fire. TNT Bolts just explode and glass bolts shatter on impact but do more damage. V2.1 introduces 3 more "elemental" crossbows. There is also an Ultimate Crossbow that is crafted out of the elemental crossbows and a few other ingredients.
*I decided against making the crossbows enchantable, because that would mess with base files and I would like this mod to be as compatible as possible.*

Alright, thanks man! Recording in 2 mins!Not working for me? I downloaded it, and my game runs, but the crafting isnt working? Also Meta-inf is gone, and I have no other mods, but I am in creative??
I tried to take a picture comparing the distance the gold crossbow can fire compared to the others and compared to the regular bow, but every single test gave me a different result. If you do use a crossbow then use the bow you will notice a difference in how far it goes.

It does have pullback. I was thinking about making it auto fire, but looking through the code it looks like pullback is a very important part to the mechanics of the bow so I decided to keep it.
EDIT:I'm pretty sure critical hits are determined by the code for the pullback.
Why thank you. It doesn't have the animation for pullback like the bow does (where it shows the arrow being pulled back) because i would have to edit a pretty important base class and right now my mod edits no base classes and I intend on keeping it that way for compatibility.
