At least for 1.21.1 NeoForge there are no weapon sounds for the trident or mace, this also applies to many modded weapons that aren't necessarily swords. This could be fixed/improved by adding a config similar to better combat where you can specify extra weapons that should make sounds.

Here is an example of a mod that is incompatible:

IIRC at the time there weren't any formal "#c" tags for these items, or mods didn't have their own tags for them. I put off going through all the grunge work of finding all the mods and manually adding tags. Here is an example of how tags would be applied for axes: https://github.com/OreCruncher/DynamicSurroundingsFabric/blob/main/common/src/main/resources/assets/dsurround/dsconfigs/tags/item/effects/axes.json

[Yes, Dynamic Surroundings is 100% client side. It does make use of tags like server-side data packs and configurations.]

Ahh, so I can use kubejs to add these tags

I haven't tried that. If you give it a shot let me know how it goes.

Yeah, it worked. The best way I found is to just add on 'c:swords' or 'c:axes' to whatever modded tag i'm not sure if adding these tags has any side effects though.

Add dsurround:axes and dsurround:swords instead. These are the tags that DS actually uses. In my tag definitions they refer to the corresponding c tags.
