Frequently asked questions

How do I make explosions look like artillery blasts?
Simply place TNT and ignite it normally—the mod automatically transforms all explosions into artillery-style blasts with smoke plumes, shockwaves, and camera shake. No special setup or crafting required; the effects apply to all TNT detonations in your world.
Why does the boom sound come late?
The mod adds realistic delayed audio that travels at the speed of sound, so distant explosions will sound later than nearby ones. This is intentional and makes blasts feel more authentic to how sound actually propagates.
Can I trigger chain reactions with this mod?
Yes—when TNT detonates, it ignites adjacent TNT blocks, creating chain reactions across the ground. Stack or place TNT blocks close together to watch them cascade into massive multi-stage explosions.
Does the mod work in Bedwars and other mini-games?
The mod runs entirely on the client side in version 1.8.9, so you'll see the enhanced explosions even in mini-game servers that don't have the mod installed. Other players see standard explosions, but you get the full artillery experience.
