Setting Up Your Particle Command

Use the mod's static particle command to spawn glowing particles at a specific location. You'll need to specify the particle type, coordinates, and visual properties.

Customizing Appearance

1. Choose your particle texture from the available options: dot, dither, smooth, pixel, shockwave, spark, dither beam, or smooth beam

2. Set a custom RGB color value to make your particle glow in your desired hue

3. Adjust the alpha level to control transparency—higher values make particles more opaque

4. Scale the particle size using the size parameter

5. Test your settings by executing the command in a datapack function or command block

Tips for Best Results

Particles render on the client side, so they won't affect gameplay or server performance. Use lower alpha values if you want subtle ambient effects, or maximize them for bold visual feedback. The dot and smooth textures work well for general-purpose glows, while beam textures create directional effects. Combine multiple particles at slightly offset positions for layered visual complexity.
