How to custom your own setting:
Version after 20.11, need to setup resoucepack and datapack. example for 20.11.1
For visual effects of screen shake and radial blur just need to setup resoucepack in client side.
you can custom the visual effect deponds on items in resoucepack. "modid/item_skin/item_registryname.json". just like how to custom trails
or you can custom the visual effect deponds on animation in resoucepack. "modid/animmodels/animations/biped/combat/visual_effct/animation_registryname.json"

For hit stop need to setup resoucepack and datapack in both side.
custom hit stop setting deponds on item capabilities in datapack "modid/capabilities/weapons/item_registryname.json". just like how to custom weapon capability

custom hit stop setting deponds on animation
"modid/animmodels/animations/biped/combat/hit_stop/animation_registryname.json"

When playing on the server, animation setting of hit stop must setup in server side as a datapack, and setup in client side as a resoucepack.
When singleplayer, just need to setup as a resourcepack
Version before 20.11, only need to set the configuration file impactful-common.toml and impactful-client.toml
