Setting Up a Combat Training Ground

You can use the functional and decorative combat props from Decorations Plus to build realistic training grounds, barracks, or sparring arenas without installing client mods.

Setting Up Targets and Dummies

1. Clear an open dirt, stone, or gravel area in your courtyard or yard to serve as your training yard.

2. Craft and position a Training Dummy in the center of the ring to represent an active sparring partner.

3. Place a Punching Bag hanging near a wall, support pillar, or frame for melee training.

4. Set up a Target Practice dummy along the far boundary to mark your archery shooting lane.

Storing Armory Equipment

  • Place a themed storage barrel displaying weapons right beside your training equipment. This visually labels your gear station without requiring item frames or floating signs.
  • Add ambient props around the training yard, such as a Broken Pot or scattered Rocks, to simulate natural wear and tear from combat drills.

Because the pack uses custom in-game displays, your training equipment renders properly for all players on a vanilla client.
