TacZ Mesh Loader [TML]

This add-on is not an official TacZ add-on; it is unofficial. Please do not report any bugs caused by this add-on to the TacZ server under any circumstances. Please report them exclusively in the comments section of this mod or on Vell's Mods info server.

Please note that Forge 1.20.1 requires the official Timeless and Classics Zero Guns, Fabric 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 require TaCZ: Refabricated, and NeoForge 1.21.1 requires the [UNOFFICIAL] TaCZ NeoForge Port as dependency mods.

Overview

TacZ Mesh Loader is a client-side mod that allows TacZ gun and attachment models to use poly_mesh geometry exported by the BlockBench plugin Meshy. 

By default, TacZ only supports Bedrock-format cube models. With this mod installed, gunpack creators can use polygon mesh models — smooth shapes built from triangle and quad polygons — directly in TacZ guns and attachments.

Features

• Poly mesh support — Loads Meshy-exported poly_mesh geometry directly into TacZ's model pipeline.
• Guns & attachments — Works for both gun models and attachments such as scopes and suppressors.
• VBO caching — At first glance, you might think that mesh models put a strain on your computer, but this mod incorporates VBO processing, which minimizes the load even when you spawn a large number of mesh model guns at once.

For Gunpack Creators

The model type can only be defined if this MOD is installed. In the JSON file used for display, simply define a new “model_type”and set it to “mesh”. Please note that the definition ‘model_type’:“mesh” is only required for the gun itself and is not necessary for Attachments and other items. Please note that even if a model consists primarily of cube models, you must define “model_type”: “mesh” if it contains even a single mesh model.

File locations and structure follow the standard TacZ gunpack format. Models should be created in BlockBench using the Meshy Plugin. You can download it directly from the blockbench plugin list.

Please note that if you use this MOD to create and release a gun pack for mesh models, you must define this MOD as a dependency.

Be sure to use the hand model as a cube object. Do not convert the hand model into a mesh.
