Particle Visor
by sylvxa
Particle Visor hides or fades particle effects based on their distance from the camera, so only nearby particles are drawn.
What it does
Particle Visor works on the client side and removes or fades particles according to their distance from the player. Particles that sit close to the camera are hidden, as are effects like potion clouds that tend to clutter a fight. Those beyond a chosen maximum distance stay out of view, while anything nearer is rendered in full.
The distance is measured from a point the player can pick. An anchor setting places the reference at the eye level, or moves it to a point on the player model, so the cutoff follows what the player actually sees. A global toggle turns the mod off without removing it, and the settings can be opened from Mod Menu when that mod is installed.
Particle Visor is for Fabric and runs on the 1.20.4 line through 26.2. Its required dependency is ukulib. The mod is open source under the MIT License, and source code and an issue tracker are public.
Key features
Distance-based culling
Particles are removed or faded depending on how far they are from the camera.
Close-range hiding
Effects right next to the camera can be hidden, which keeps the view clear in crowded fights.
Configurable maximum distance
The farthest distance at which particles remain visible is set in the configuration.
Distance anchor
The distance can be measured from eye level or from a point on the player model.
Global toggle
A single option enables or disables the mod without uninstalling it.
