Create Splashes in Different Water Types

Where Splashes Appear

The Water Splashes and Waves data pack activates in all natural water sources: rivers, lakes, oceans, and any other water blocks. Each environment produces the same splash effect when you enter the water.

Testing Different Locations

1. Find a river and jump in from the bank

2. Locate a lake and dive from an elevated position

3. Visit an ocean and fall from a boat or cliff

4. Create a custom pool using water blocks and test splashes there

Splash effects trigger consistently across all these water types. The particle animation doesn't change based on water type—only your fall height affects splash intensity.

Performance Considerations

Creating splashes in oceans or large lakes may impact performance more than smaller bodies of water, especially if you're creating multiple splashes rapidly. If you notice lag, try reducing particle settings or creating splashes in smaller water areas. The data pack works equally well everywhere; performance depends on your system and particle settings.
