Radiant Magic Sparks Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I open the settings menu?
Press Right Shift while in-game to open the particle settings menu. From there you can toggle effects on/off and adjust all particle behavior in real time.
Can I turn off particles for just walking but keep combat sparks?
Yes, open the settings menu with Right Shift and toggle individual particle triggers on or off—you can disable walking particles while keeping attack impacts, projectiles, totem effects, or any combination you prefer.
What's the difference between 2D and 3D rendering modes?
2D rendering uses flat particle sprites that always face the camera, while 3D rendering creates volumetric particles that exist in full space; choose based on your visual preference and performance needs.
Does this mod affect other players or servers?
No, Radiant Magic Sparks is client-side only, so your particles are only visible to you and don't impact multiplayer gameplay or server performance.
My particles are making the game lag—how do I fix it?
Lower the particle count slider in the settings menu, reduce the spread value, or disable particle effects for actions you don't need; you can also switch to 2D rendering mode for better performance.
Can I make particles a specific color instead of random?
Yes, disable the random color mode in the settings menu and select your preferred color from the available options to apply consistent particle colors.
Do particles show when I hit mobs with a sword or just projectiles?
Particles spawn on both melee hits and projectile impacts; you can toggle the attack sparks separately from arrow trail effects in the settings menu if you want only one type.
Will particles appear if I have a low particle count setting in vanilla Minecraft?
The mod uses its own particle system independent of vanilla settings, so your custom particle count in the Radiant Magic menu will work regardless of your global Minecraft particle settings.
Can I adjust how long particles stay on screen?
Yes, the lifetime slider in the settings menu controls how long particles persist before fading; increase it to make effects linger longer or decrease it for quicker fades.
Do the Totem of Undying particles work the same as other effects?
The totem effect has its own dedicated toggle and custom texture rework in the settings menu, so you can enable or disable it independently from walking, combat, and projectile particles.
