Projectile Trails: Arrow, Trident & Pearl Trails

See every shot.

Everything that flies leaves a short glowing trail that fades in half a second, in its own colour:

• Arrows in white, spectral arrows in gold, tipped arrows in their potion's colour
• Tridents in cyan, ender pearls in purple, snowballs and eggs in white
• Fireballs in orange, wind charges in pale blue, splash potions and bottles o' enchanting too

Read the arc of a shot, see where the skeleton is shooting from, make every bow shot show up in your videos.

The trail follows the real path the server sends: nothing is predicted. Stuck arrows stop trailing. Trails glow, so they show at night. Turned off when particles are set to Minimal.

Tested in game

Fabric 26.3 and Fabric 26.2 (full scenes with real projectiles at dusk and night); NeoForge 26.2 loads cleanly.

Client-side

Nothing to install on the server. Works on any server, in single player and on Realms.

Made by an indie dev with help from AI tools; every version is tested in game.
