AkatZumaTool

About

AkatZumaTool is a lightweight weapon mod for Minecraft that uses a custom rendering pipeline to deliver flashy visual effects.

All beams, lightning, and explosion particles are rendered in real-time via custom Shaders, supporting up to hundreds of thousands of particles for a greatly enhanced visual experience.

Note: The GPU particle and post-processing systems require OpenGL 4.3 (satisfied by most discrete GPUs).

New Items

| Item | Description |
|——|————-|
| Coin | Right-click and hold to charge, release to fire a piercing beam. Consumable item. Max range 50 blocks, damage 20. |
| Colorful Coin | Enhanced version of the Coin with 256 durability. Enchantable, max range 60 blocks, damage 40. The beam can also break blocks. |
| Fly Sword | Right-click on a block to summon 2 auto-targeting flying swords. Persistent entities that automatically follow and attack monsters, with a trailing visual effect. |

Additional Features

✨ GPU Particle System (Compute Shader)

• Engine: OpenGL 4.3 Compute Shader + SSBO
• Capacity: Up to 100,000 particles, updated primarily on the GPU
• Particle Shapes: Circle, Square, Triangle, Heart, Star
• Motion: Ballistic trajectory, gravity control, color gradient
• Use Cases:
• Coin full-charge convergence particles
• Magic arrow trails
• Impact explosion bursts
• Meteor strikes
• Ground expanding rings
• Super charge final explosion

🌟 Bloom Post-Processing Pipeline

• MRT FBO: Separates the visible color pass from the Bloom glow pass
• Gaussian Blur: 3-iteration ping-pong blur
• Final Composite: Original scene + mod effects + Bloom glow overlay
• Adaptive Resolution: FBOs automatically rebuild on window resize

⚡ Custom Beam & Lightning Rendering

• Beams: 3D beams formed by two perpendicular quads, with fbm noise arc disturbance and blue-white / yellow-red color schemes
• Lightning: Real-time branching lightning (3–8 branches) generated during charging, with exponential decay kernel + Bloom glow
• Sword Trail: 6-frame dynamic ribbon effect based on the Ribbon algorithm

🤝 Mod Integration

• Touhou Little Maid: Registers a ranged attack task (Railgun) so maids can automatically equip and throw coins as a ranged weapon — no extra configuration needed.

⚙️ Configurability

Most numerical values can be adjusted via config/Akatzumatool/akatzumatool.toml:

| Config Key | Description |
|————|————-|
| Coin / Colorful Coin | Damage, range, full-charge time |
| Fly Sword | Search range, attack damage |
| Terrain Destruction | Whether beams can break terrain (respects FTB Chunks claims) |
