[TaCZ] Timeless and Classics Zero

by craneblock6666

Shooting, reloading and attachments for guns in TaCZ, a full remake of the TaC gun mod by the original team, with gun packs that need no code.

ForgeClient and serverGNU General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.18.2 – 1.20.1

What it does

TaCZ replaces the earlier TaC gun mod with rewritten code, new models and new animations. Each gun has its own reload and inspection animation, and a new attachment screen lets players modify a weapon. Some guns are crafted at dedicated workbenches, and a new scope view covers optics. Shaders are supported, and level-of-detail optimization is used for the models.

Client and server installs are needed, and the Forge build is published across six release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.20.1, with the latest file being 1.1.8-hotfix2 for 1.20.1. Files are released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so the source code is open and the project has a public issue tracker and wiki. Other mods such as TaC-Reforged: LesRaisins Append Pack and [TACZ]Enchanted Arsenal add content on top of it, and 82 catalog mods require it.

Key features

  1. Reload and inspection animations

    Each gun has its own reload and inspection animation, with separate motion for shooting and maneuvering.

  2. Gun crafting and modification

    Guns are crafted at exclusive workbenches, and an attachment screen lets players change a weapon while surviving.

  3. Scope view

    A new scope view implementation shows optics on screen, with visualization and compatibility handled together.

  4. Gun packs without coding

    Players and creators can add gun packs as zip files without writing any code, and the mod converts standard packs automatically.

  5. Translations

    The mod can be translated into other languages through a Crowdin project for TACZ.

Questions

Does TaCZ need a server install?

Yes, since the mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it installed.

Where do gun packs go?

Put the zip file in the .minecraft/tacz folder without unzipping it, then use /tacz reload or /reload in game.

Will every gun pack convert automatically?

Not always. The auto-convert system does not work on nonstandard gun packs, so those packs need an update from their author before they can be converted.
