KoHs Death Effects

by zymery_dria

With KoHs Death Effects, the way a player dies in Minecraft is replaced by animated death effects that can be configured.

FabricClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.21.11 – 26.3

What it does

Each death plays one of a set of animated effects, chosen from a list the player can tune. The effects include ragdolls, angels, hellfire, a reaper weapon, shatter, dust and firework scenes, and about 20 special fatalities that are built as full 3D animations. A player can preview their own skin in the effect, and a playable sandbox called Soul Vault lets them try effects without dying.

The mod is a client-side Fabric mod, so only the player's game needs it and a server does not. It requires Fabric API, and Mod Menu is optional for its settings screen. Files are published for Fabric across six release versions, 1.21.11 – 26.3, under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source. Its content includes blood and gore, which the description notes up front.

Key features

  1. Configurable death scenes

    Players pick which death effects appear and can tune them, so the same death does not always play the same scene.

  2. Special fatalities

    Around 20 special fatalities are tied to items and conditions, including executioner, sandworm and time stop scenes.

  3. Soul Vault sandbox

    A playable sandbox lets players test effects and preview their own skin before a real death.

  4. Ragdolls and gore

    Death scenes include ragdoll bodies, dismemberment and blood, and a quiet silhouette option shows a plainer scene.

  5. Effect catalogue

    A catalogue lists the death sounds and effects, each with a play button to hear or view it before choosing.

Use cases

Single-player death scenes

A player who wants varied deaths in their own world can set the effects they like and leave the rest off.

Testing effects

Players can use the Soul Vault sandbox to see how an effect looks before it plays on a real death.

Who it’s for: The mod suits players who want changed death scenes in single-player or on a client. Because it is client-side, the server does not need it and players on any server can use it alone.

Questions

Does KoHs Death Effects need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is a required dependency and must be installed alongside the mod on the Fabric loader.

Does a server need KoHs Death Effects?

No. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it.

Can death effects be turned off?

Yes. Players can choose which effects play, and the quiet silhouette option gives a plainer scene instead of the full fatality.

What the author says

KoHs Death Effects replaces the way players die in Minecraft with animated, configurable effects, from a quiet silhouette to a full fatality. It is a client-side Fabric mod: you install it in your own game and no server needs it. Morph is being rebuilt and is switched off for now.
