| Minecraft versions | 1.20, 1.20.6, 1.21.1 |
| Environment | Client, Server |
TaCZ addon is an expansion for the TaCZ gun mod, made by MerrySnow. It runs on Forge and NeoForge and is required on both the client and the server. It mostly tidies attachment handling and crafting, and adds a few quality-of-life controls.
Loaders and versions
- NeoForge: Minecraft 1.21.1. The newest build needs no dependencies; some builds for 1.21.1 require [UNOFFICIAL] TaCZ 1.21.1 NeoForge Port.
- Forge: Minecraft 1.20 to 1.20.6. The newest build needs no dependencies; some builds for 1.20.1 require [[TaCZ] Timeless and Classics Zero](/mods/timeless-and-classics-zero).
Gun smithing table improvements
Open the table with a gun in either hand and it lists only the attachments and ammo that fit that gun. You can filter attachments by their bonus attributes, and materials link straight to JEI recipes. Hold SHIFT to craft in batches (the count is adjustable in the config file), and a toast confirms what was made. Materials are drawn from nearby containers, including Sophisticated Backpacks.
Attachments, ammo and handling
- A rule named liberateAttachment lets any gun use every compatible attachment, regardless of what is in your inventory.
- Tooltips show how an attachment changes the gun in your hand, and hovering an item highlights related guns, ammo or attachments in the container.
- Hold TAB and scroll to cycle through guns in your inventory. The key is configurable.
- Aiming in third person switches to first-person aiming, with support for Shoulder Surfing Reloaded and Leawind's Third Person.
- SHIFT-right-click on an ammo box gathers all matching ammo from your inventory.
- Chosen guns can be set as melee weapons in the client config, and the gun sheathing animation can be removed.
- Data pack recipes can add AttachmentPacks, which let one gun swap freely between a listed set of attachments.
Installing TaCZ addon
Put the mod file in the mods folder that matches your loader. JEI is used for the recipe jump. Backpack ammo works with Sophisticated Backpacks, and Curios slots and Create Storage backpacks are also supported. Need a loader first? See how to install Forge and NeoForge.
Questions about TaCZ addon.
4 questions
Does TaCZ addon work on multiplayer?
Yes, but it is required on both the client and the server. Players and the multiplayer host both need the mod installed.
Is TaCZ addon the same as the Bedrock TaCZ add-on?
No. This is a Java mod for Forge and NeoForge. The Bedrock gun add-ons that appear in search results use a different format and cannot be loaded by Java mod loaders, and this mod cannot be loaded by Bedrock.
Which TaCZ release does the addon need?
It is made against TaCZ 1.1.8-hotfix2 and also supports 1.1.8-hotfix. Other TaCZ releases have no promised support, so match your TaCZ file to those before blaming the addon for missing features.
Can I use ammo from backpacks with TaCZ addon?
Yes. Backpacks from Sophisticated Backpacks count as ammo sources, and Create Storage backpacks and Curios slots are also supported. Pump-action guns such as the M870 do not draw ammo from Sophisticated Backpacks, which is a listed known issue.
