Make Bubbles Pop

by Tschipcraft

Make Bubbles Pop is a client-side mod that makes bubble particles rise to the water surface and pop when they arrive.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltClient-side onlyCustom license1.17 – 26.3

What it does

Make Bubbles Pop overhauls how bubble particles move. Instead of drifting in fixed patterns, they rise toward the surface of water and burst there. The mod also adds bubble particles when a chest or barrel is opened underwater, and when an explosion happens underwater. Its behavior changes apply to bubbles interacting with blocks and with entities.

Installing the mod requires Fabric API on Fabric. MidnightLib, Mod Menu and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) are optional companions, and MidnightLib can be installed alongside it to adjust its settings. Client-side only, it is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 34 game versions, with builds covering 1.17 – 26.3. The license is custom and the project is not open source, though source code and an issue tracker are publicly linked.

Key features

  1. Rising bubble particles

    Bubble particles travel upward and stop at the water surface, where they pop.

  2. Block and entity interactions

    Bubbles respond to blocks and entities in the water, with changed movement for each case.

  3. Underwater chest and barrel bubbles

    Opening a chest or barrel underwater creates bubble particles.

  4. Underwater explosion bubbles

    Explosions under water produce bubble particles as well.

  5. Configurable settings

    Options can be adjusted through MidnightLib when it is installed.
