Burn By Soul Fire

by Aquarius.playz

Burn By Soul Fire changes how burning entities look, swapping the regular fire visual for soul fire on players and mobs that catch alight.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.20.1 – 26.2

What it does

When an entity touches soul fire, its burning visual switches to the soul fire style instead of regular flames. An entity that catches soul fire keeps that look until it stops burning, and an entity that touches regular fire while already burning shows the same effect, so the visual stays consistent. The change only affects how fire is drawn; it does not alter damage or fire spread.

The config file, burnbysoulfireconfig, sits in the config folder and holds two true/false values: one turns on the soul fire HUD overlay shown while walking through soul fire, and the other turns on the soul fire display for entities. Extra config entries also cover other fire types, such as ender fire and cupric fire, from companion content.

Burn By Soul Fire needs Aquarius Libs installed, and it is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Because the changes are purely visual, the mod runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 26.2, and the latest files target 26.2. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Soul fire visual on burning entities

    Entities that touch soul fire burn with the soul fire visual rather than regular flames.

  2. Persistent soul fire effect

    The soul fire look stays on an entity until it stops burning, even if it later touches regular fire.

  3. Soul fire HUD overlay

    An optional overlay shows soul fire on screen while the player walks through it, toggled in the config.

  4. Entity display option

    A config option controls whether soul fire is shown on burning entities, so the effect can be turned off.

Questions

Does Burn By Soul Fire need Aquarius Libs?

Yes. Aquarius Libs is a required dependency and must be installed alongside Burn By Soul Fire on any loader.

Does a server need Burn By Soul Fire?

No. The mod is client-side only, since it changes visuals alone, so players install it and the server can run without it.

How can the soul fire HUD be turned off?

Set the HUD option in burnbysoulfireconfig to false in the config folder. The entity display option uses the same file and can be set separately.
