Tintsabers
Tintsabers is a cosmetic datapack that provides toggleable tintsabers: swords that have a light-like blade that changes color based on team color or sword trim.
Re-implemented from an old 1.13+ version data-&-resource pack written for an SMP, Tintsabers aims to be vanilla-friendly as its primary purpose is cosmetic changes.
Features
- Convert any vanilla sword into a tintsaber, retaining their base attack stats
- Tintsabers will automatically change color based on your minecraft team, if a color has been assigned
- Tintsaber team-shading can be overrode by using armor trim materials on them
- This change is permanent on a tintsaber, choose wisely
- Toggleable blade extension and retraction by crouching with the saber in your main hand
Future Planned Features
- Updates as needed; subtle particle & sound effects later
