Minecraft Explosive Enhancement mod: All features and how to install

Minecraft has various weather-related, mob-related, or block-related visual effects. Some of these effects create simple particles, while others create loads of visual artifacts in the world. One of the most commonly seen visual effects is when something explodes. When creepers or TNT explode, multiple large circular clouds of smoke appear from the place of the explosion.

While the explosion effect is quite decent in vanilla Minecraft, there is a mod called Explosive Enhancement that takes explosive effects to a whole new level. Here is everything to know about the mod, including its features and how to download it.

When an explosion happens, this straightforward cosmetic mod adds loads of new particles to the eruption, all of which players can enable or disable as they see fit through the mod's configuration menu. Additionally, players can use the configuration menu to entirely enable or disable the mod itself.

Additionally, there is a unique explosion effect if TNT or any other entity explodes underwater. This underwater effect can also be tweaked to achieve a large number of bubbles during an explosion.

Since explosion particles and effects are added from the mod, almost every single effect is configurable. It is worth mentioning that players must first download the Mod Menu for Minecraft along with the Explosion Enhancement mod to open the effect settings.

As shown above, players can toggle fireball, blast wave, mushroom cloud, sparks, shock wave, etc., that occur during a land or underwater explosion.
