Better Smoke
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Better Campfire Smoke is a lightweight and configurable client-side mod that alters the vanilla campfire particle emitter to look more pleasant.
Features
- Campfires will emit smoke particles that flow in the wind, allowing for a better and more visually pleasing representation of campsites, chimneys, and factory smoke stacks.
- The more campfires you place, the larger the smoke plume.
- Wind is affected by in game weather.
- Soul campfires emit a slightly darker plume of smoke that tints blue as it rises.
- Fully configurable and completely client-side.
Recommendations
While not required, I reccomend installing Particle Core as it can make both performance and transparency stacking slightly better.
Disclaimer
This mod could be somewhat graphically heavy on some low end hardware due to the amount of particles.
