A resource pack cannot add new particles

java particles

[pseudo zephyr]

can't you create custom particles for java??

[oblique panther]

not for a normal resource pack
best you can do is an animated texture on an item model or retexturing existing particles to fake new particles

[pseudo zephyr]

Maybe if I make a model that looks like the particles it would work, right?

Is there any way to make a cube of a java model always look towards the player?

[oblique panther]

if you display them with an item_display entity and set the billboard nbt tag to "center", yes

[pseudo zephyr]

Is that configured in blockbench or in the entity code?

[oblique panther]

nbt is entity specific
has nothing to do with the model itself

[pseudo zephyr]

Okay, I understand.

If my particle model has multiple models so that it is multiple particles in a single model, would that affect anything?

[pseudo zephyr]

?

[oblique panther]

what does "has multiple models" mean?

a model is a model

[pseudo zephyr]

yes my bad

i mean something like this

multiple particles

that i need to be showed at the same emitter

[pseudo zephyr]

does it affect this?

[oblique panther]

the amount of elements in your model won't affect anything besides performance

[pseudo zephyr]

nice
