Dynamic Effects Forge
A high-performance particle engine featuring custom physics, volumetric light effects, dynamic shadows, and much more.
★ Overrides vanilla explosions with multi-stage, volumetric particle sequences.
★ Smoke dynamically reacts to the sun’s position, casting rich, ambient color palettes.
★ Particles can have advanced physics features like vortex paths, collision and bouncing off walls.
★ Fires spawn glowing embers and flickering lights.
★ An extensive mod settings menu to suit any visual preference or performance limit.
★ A cozy Air Humidifier with mild beauty, cleanliness, meditation focus, and an in-game mod debugging tool.
★ All effects can be built purely with XML, allowing for easy expansions.
⚙ Safe to add to existing saves. Safe to remove (campfires, humidifiers etc. will throw errors after uninstall, which will resolve itself immediately).
⚙ Harmony patches only affect visuals and can be toggled off in the mod settings.
⚙ The code is highly optimized. In my experience, only massive wildfires can strain performance. Mod settings allow disabling fire effects completely, or automatically switch back to vanilla fires after a certain threshold.
⚙ Mod .xml files contain tips and examples for easy expansion and compatibility patching.
⚙ Incompatible with Blast Forge (this is the optimized, expanded replacement for that mod).
– The Air Humidifier’s "Test Effect" debug tool cannot preview building-attached effects (Flamme and Mist). To experiment with these, simply observe the mist on the humidifier itself or the flames on a campfire.
– You can use the "Reload Forge Defs" button on the humidifier to instantly hot-reload all effects from your XML and restart them without closing the game.
– On high game speeds, fleck creation rate is reduced, size increased to maintain performance. The balance might be a bit off towards the performance side currently, I might try adding a slider for that too when i have time, if requested.
