LessHurtParticle
by Cimdy
LessHurtParticle changes how many damage particle effects appear when a player hits something, so heavy hits do not flood the screen with indicators.
What it does
Damage number particles normally scale with the amount of damage dealt, and large hits can spawn many of them at once. The mod caps that count, so a single attack produces a limited number of effects regardless of how much damage it deals. It is a NeoForge mod, published for 1.20.6 and 1.21, with the 1.0 file dated 2024-07-27 as the latest release. Both the client and the server need it, since the change touches how effects are generated.
Key features
Capped particle count
Damage that would create a large number of particles is limited to a small, fixed number of effects per hit.
Percentage-based scaling
The number of effects follows the share of the target's maximum health removed, rather than the raw damage total.
Open source code

What the author says
When a player causes "million" damage, the number of particle effects is no longer determined by the amount of damage caused, but by the percentage of damage caused to the maximum health, resulting in 1-5 particle effects.
