3 particle types are implemented

particles

static_particle

  • a simple 8x8 circle texture
  • configurable color, alpha, startSize, size, endSize, lifetime
  • is emissive (glow in the dark)

static_flash

  • mimics the vanilla flash particle
  • configurable color, alpha, startSize, size, endSize, lifetime
  • is emissive (glow in the dark)
  • the vanilla flash particle texture is remade from scratch to be cleaner, as well as higher resolution (64x64, previously 32x32)

static_oriented

  • a simple 8x8 circle texture
  • configurable color, alpha, startSizeX, sizeX, endSizeX, startSizeY, sizeY, endSizeY, lifetime, rotation, post_rotation, cull
  • is emissive (glow in the dark)
note important thing to know is that all number arguments are actually string arguments, due to a limitation of minecrafts codebase, its so that the stuff listed below can work

โ €

all number arguments(the particle parameters) support ranges ("x..y"=random from x to y), rotation arguments also support ~ which will use the command rotation context on the appropriate axis

โ €

also if youre wondering, post_rotation is just a second pass of rotation, technically redundant, just convenient

there are 3 standalone commands

commands

/fov <add|multiply|set|query> <targets> <float> [interpolation type] [interpolation duration]

  • changes/gets the client FOV of the targets

/rendertext <targets> <alignment> <x> <y> <text> <size> [duration] [opacity] [gui scale independent] [hide with HUD] [overlay]

  • displays text on the targets screens at the inputted position
  • boolean argument for making the text size independent of the clients GUI scale setting
  • boolean argument for forcing the text to display even if the HUD is hidden (F1)
  • boolean argument for the size being multiplied by the client window aspect ratio

/camerarot <targets> <pitch> <yaw> <roll> [duration]

  • adds rotation offset to the client camera (linear interpolation)
note (roll worls perfectly, yaw and pitch technically do too, just a bit un-intuitive, in most cases its better to use actual entity rotation instead)

the mod adds two conditions for predicates

predicates

mouse* condition

{
  "condition": "staticparticle:player_action",
  "action": "attack"/"pick_item"/"use",
  "context": "in_game"/"in_menu"
}
  • true when the target of the predicate is holding the respective buttons in the respective context

key condition

  • the mod adds 5 new keybinds that dont do anything, except for tell the server theyve been pressed by a client
{ 
  "condition": "staticparticle:special_key",
  "key": 0/1/2/3/4
}
  • true when the target of the predicate is holding the respective key
