TaCZ Additions
by Raiiiden
TaCZ Additions is a Forge addon for 1.20.1 that adds momentum-based gun movement, tilt, recoil control, muzzle flash, scope sway and idle animation to guns.
What it does
Gun handling is the main focus. Weapons carry momentum as the player moves, and the gun tilts when the player strafes from side to side. A gun idles with its own motion while held, and firing produces a muzzle flash. Scope sway begins once the zoom reaches 4x, which imitates the feel of sniping games.
Recoil is adjustable. A recoil multiplier can be set separately for each gun type and for horizontal and vertical kick, and the return of the barrel after a shot can be switched off. Every value is configurable, so a server or a player can tune the feel to taste.
The mod is an addon, so the gun mod it extends must be installed alongside it. TaCZ Additions is published for Forge only, with a single version for 1.20.1. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so it can be installed on a client, a server or both. It is not open source and is released under All rights reserved. The author lists a public source code repository and an issue tracker, and the project is still early in development.
Key features
Momentum-based movement
Guns carry momentum as the player moves, which changes how weapons sway during motion.
Side-to-side tilt
The gun tilts while the player moves left or right, adding motion to the weapon model.
Configurable recoil multiplier
Recoil can be scaled per gun type, separately for horizontal and vertical movement.
Muzzle flash and scope sway
Each shot shows a muzzle flash, and the scope sways once zoom passes 4x. The return of recoil after firing can also be turned off.
