Modding info / Effects help
May 21, 2014, 09:31:30 PM
Hi, new to Java and all this jazz, but muddling my way through as best I can...
Can anyone provide (or point me in the direction of!) some info about the visual effects system? I'm trying to get a handle on the different visuals that are included; I've had success playing with the <nova> effect, but there's still a lot of ambiguity and not much information out there...

When it comes to defining the visual effects, is anyone able to elaborate on possible <data> fields such as <nova>, <ray>,  <particles>, and any others that might exist?
Is there a list of acceptable parameters for each of them hidden somewhere in the core pack?

Can you make particle fountains as an effect? For example, if I wanted an extra flashy effect to happen while you were mining, alongside the typical laser effect..

Thanks for any help!
