Particle Toggler
by faizarii
Particle Toggler lets a Fabric player switch individual weather effects on or off on the client, from an in-game menu opened with the P key.
What it does
The mod is a client-side Fabric addition for Minecraft 26.1.2 that handles weather visuals and sounds. Each effect can be disabled on its own or all of them can be turned off in one action, so a player who finds rain streaks or thunder distracting can remove just those. The changes apply only on the player's own machine, and no server component is involved.
The settings live in a tabbed interface opened with the P key, grouped under a weather tab. Players can keep snow falling while silencing thunder, or hide the splash particles that appear where rain lands while leaving the rain itself alone. Because the toggles are client-only, they can be used on any server that the player joins, including ones that do not have the mod installed.
Particle Toggler is published for Fabric and needs nothing beyond the Fabric loader for 26.1.2. Its source code and issue tracker are public, but the code is under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Global weather toggle
A single click turns every weather effect on or off at once, without changing the individual settings.
Rain and snow visuals
Falling rain and snow streaks can each be hidden, so the column rendering of either precipitation type is removed.
Rain splash particles
The particles that appear where raindrops hit the ground can be disabled separately from the rain itself.
Rain and thunder sounds
Ambient rain audio and the thunder that follows lightning strikes can each be muted on their own.

How it compares
No Weather Effects is a Fabric client mod for 1.19 – 1.20.4 that is open source under the Apache License 2.0, so it does not cover the 26.1.2 release. Player Visibility Toggler is a client-side Fabric mod for 1.21.10 – 26.2 under the MIT License and is not open source, but it hides other players rather than weather. VisualParticles Better is an open source client-side Fabric mod for 1.21.4 – 26.1.2 under the MIT License that changes particle visuals more broadly rather than toggling weather.
