Changing the look with resource packs
If the default textures are not to your taste, community resource packs slightly change the appearance of the particles from the original mod.

Installing and what to expect
- 1.Install the mod loader that matches the build you want, for the same Minecraft release.
- 2.Download the file for your loader and release, plus any required dependency listed above.
- 3.Place the files in the mods folder inside your Minecraft directory, then launch with the loader's profile.
Our guide to installing Fabric covers the loader step. The trade-off is a narrow feature set. This is a visual swap only, and it reaches no further than your own screen.
Questions about Particle Effects.
3 questions
Does Particle Effects work in multiplayer?
Yes. The mod is client-side, so you install it only on your own machine and can join multiplayer worlds with it. It is not supported on dedicated servers, and it only changes what you see on your screen.
Can I change how the particles look?
Yes. Community resource packs slightly change the appearance of the mod's particles, including Particles Updated by zed1ker, Updated Particles by Timofeii7547 and Bare Bones x Particle Effects by Dezert3.
Does Particle Effects add new gameplay?
It is a simple visual mod. It adds unique textured particles for every effect in vanilla Minecraft, so its focus is how effects look on your own screen. It runs on the client only.
