⚔️ Weapon Trails

Give your melee attacks a little more style.

Weapon Trails is a lightweight Minecraft datapack that adds a subtle particle trail whenever you swing a sword or axe, creating a clean visual slash effect without changing gameplay.

• 🪓 Axe trails — Works with all vanilla axes.
• ✨ Lightweight — Designed to have minimal performance impact.

🎮 How It Works

Simply attack with a sword or axe and a small trail of particles will appear around the weapon's swing, giving melee combat a little more visual feedback.

It doesn't add new weapons, change damage values, or alter combat mechanics — it's purely cosmetic.
