Custom Totem Particles Mod Wiki & Guide

First, check that the specific category toggles (such as Color, Scale, or Gravity) are actually enabled, since each section can be turned on or off independently. Second, check the Particle type option in the General category—if you replaced the default totem particle with another type like criticals, the mod ignores most custom parameters.

Turn off "Show own totem particles" in the General category to completely hide particles from your own pops while still seeing when other players pop a totem. If you still want a subtle indicator for yourself, leave it on and instead lower the Multiplier, Scale, or Maximum alpha settings.

You likely have "Blend colors" enabled in the Color category, which only takes the first two colors in your list and picks random gradient shades between them. Turn off Blend colors if you want particles to randomly pick from every color in your Starting color list.

With Blend colors disabled, add duplicate entries of your preferred color to the Starting color list. Because the mod picks from the list at random, adding the same color multiple times increases its chance of appearing.
