Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on blood effects after installing the pack?
Blood N' Particles activates automatically once the data pack is loaded into your world. You should see red particles and blood marks appear the next time you deal or take damage. If nothing happens, check that the data pack is enabled in your world settings under Data Packs.
Why aren't blood particles showing up when I hit mobs?
Make sure particle effects aren't disabled in your Video Settings—set Particles to minimum "All" or higher. Also verify the data pack is active by checking your world's Data Packs menu. If particles still don't appear, try standing closer to the mob when attacking.
Can I make blood effects show up for only certain mobs?
Yes, you can customize which mob categories display blood effects by editing the data pack's configuration files. The pack supports toggling effects separately for overworld animals, hostile mobs, Nether creatures, and End monsters.
How long do blood puddles stay on the ground?
Blood marks fade and disappear automatically after a few seconds to keep your world clean. You can adjust how long puddles last before vanishing by modifying the data pack's duration settings.
