About

Particular is a mod that enhances Minecraft's ambience with many hand-crafted visual effects.

Visual Effects

  • 3D water splashes
  • Matches the water color
  • The wider the entity the wider the splash
  • The taller the fall the taller the splash
  • Waterfall cascades
  • Cascades appear when falling water is over 2 block deep source water and the top source water has at least 1 open side
  • Cascade strength is proportional to the falling water's height and the number of open sides to the source water
  • Fireflies
  • Spawn in warm biomes at flowers and tall grass
  • Spawn rates are randomized at dusk
  • Falling leaves
  • Each leaves block has a unique leaf particle with varying behavior
  • Creates ripples when landing on water
  • Cave dust
  • Spawn rates are proportional to depth and sunlight level
  • Bubbles from underwater chests and barrels
  • When a chest or barrel is opened underwater it releases bubbles
  • Ender chests release green-tinted bubbles
  • Place soul sand under a chest to make it automatically open and release bubbles
  • Popping bubbles
  • Ripples from rain and water drips
  • Cake eating particles
  • Emissive lava drips

Configuration

The mod can be configured to disable any of the effects and adjust which biomes should not spawn cave dust.
