Description
Photon is a VFX (visal effect) editor mod developed for minecraft which is inspired by unity.
It includes unity's particle system and the trailing system. Can help modders create effects for their contents, and players can also enjoy effects by command.
Its original intention is to let players who love vfx, not be confused by technical skill and math problems. Its creativity allows you to make various dream scenarios!!
