[TaCZ:Accel] Timeless and Classics Zero Guns: Tweaks
[TaCZ:Accel] Timeless and Classics Zero Guns: Tweaks is a client and server performance addon for the TaCZ gun mod, reducing CPU and RAM work for gun rendering and bullet handling.
What it does
The addon targets the rendering and bullet hot paths of TaCZ. GPU resident gun geometry, direct skinning and reusable bone animation caches cut repeated transform work each frame, and cheaper bullet collision checks allocate fewer temporary hitboxes. Automatic CPU or GPU selection tests eligible routes per model, display context and supported render path, and gunpack asset RAM is reduced through Quantified API, which is required alongside the base TaCZ mod.
Gun behaviour, animations and bullet results are meant to stay the same as in TaCZ. Lighting effects and framebuffer handling in Iris and Oculus shader packs stay intact, and the own renderers of Accelerated Rendering and TaCZ Mesh Loader are left running. The addon is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with the 1.3.2 build for 1.21.1 released on 2026-10-13. It is released under a custom license and is not open source.
Key features
GPU resident gun geometry
Compatible guns keep their transformed geometry on the GPU instead of rebuilding it every frame.
Automatic CPU and GPU routing
Each model, display context and render path is tested for eligibility, and the addon picks the GPU route only when it is supported.
Cheaper bullet collision
Collision checks run with fewer temporary hitbox allocations, reducing per-bullet overhead.
Nonblocking GPU uploads
Uploads run without blocking the frame, with a safe CPU fallback when a path cannot use the GPU.
Arcana underbarrel switching
Underbarrel attachment switching keeps working, with stack specific model selection applied live and visibility callbacks preserved.

What the author says
TaCZ:Accel is a performance addon for TaCZ. It cuts down repeated rendering, animation, attachment, bullet and resource work that really does not need to happen every frame. Same guns, same animations, same bullet behaviour. Just less CPU and RAM abuse, especially with bigger gunpacks:DDD
