About
New atmospheric effects:
- Steam from the mouth in cold biomes (if the player is running, the particles appear more frequently);
- Bubbles from the mouth while you have oxygen underwater;
- Bubbles from an open chest underwater;
- Drip effect from the player when he comes out of the water;
- New effects for lamps, fires and campfires (and their soul analogues);
- Sparks from burning entities, just like from fire and campfires;
- Additional effects from running on snow or sand;
- Cave dust;
- Columns of steam when water and hot blocks come into contact (like lava or a cauldron with lava);
- Sparks from under the wheels of a minecart when moving at high speed;
- Bubbles now appear from decorated pots when underwater;
- Sparks now appear when hitting metal blocks with iron, gold, or netherite tools (this effect will be adapted for modded metal items in the future);
- Particles now appear when placing sand, gravel, or snow blocks;
- A subtle trail while gliding with Elytra;
- Black smoke while the Wither effect is active.
