Velocity Blur Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I turn on the velocity blur effect?
The mod activates automatically once installed—you'll see motion blur on your screen as soon as you start moving fast. If you don't see it, check your mod menu to ensure the effect isn't disabled in the configuration settings.
Why isn't the speed counter showing up?
The speed counter appears in the top right corner by default, but you may have turned it off in the mod configuration. Open your mod menu and re-enable the speed text display option.
What does 'blocks per second' actually measure?
The speed counter shows how many blocks your character travels forward each second, giving you an exact numerical readout of your current velocity as you move or fly.
Does this mod work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, the Velocity Blur Mod is entirely client-side, meaning it only affects your screen and doesn't require the server to have the mod installed.
How do I make the blur effect stronger?
The blur intensity scales automatically with your speed—the faster you move, the stronger the effect becomes. Flying with an Elytra or using speed-boosting methods will maximize the blur.
Can I use this mod with other visual mods?
The mod should work alongside most other client-side visual mods, but conflicts are possible depending on what you're running. Test your mod combination to check for compatibility issues.
Does the blur effect impact my FPS or performance?
The mod is designed to be lightweight since it only processes visual effects on your screen, but performance impact depends on your system and other mods you're using.
How do I know if the mod is actually working?
Start running or flying at high speed and look at the edges of your screen—you should see motion blur. Also check that the speed counter is visible in the top right corner showing your blocks per second.
Can I hide just the speed numbers but keep the blur?
Yes, you can toggle the speed text display off in the mod configuration menu while leaving the motion blur effect active.
Does the blur work the same way when sprinting versus flying?
The blur responds to your actual velocity, so flying with an Elytra typically produces stronger blur effects than sprinting on the ground since you can reach higher speeds in the air.
