Explosion Overhaul Mod re-imagines the game’s explosion system to make it feel more powerful and dynamic. This mod adds immersive visual and audio feedback to every blast, from creepers to TNT. Explosions now have new physics and sound effects that make destruction more exciting.

Features:

  • Works with all vanilla explosions and most from other mods.
  • Launches nearby blocks into the air as physics-based debris with random speed and rotation.
  • Adds a camera shake effect that changes based on the explosion’s power and your distance.
  • Includes an optional ear-ringing sound for when you are close to a large blast.
  • Lets you configure every feature to your liking.

Configuration:

You can customize the mod’s behavior in the config/explosion-overhaul.json file. Options include:

  • The amount of debris, its speed, and spawn chance.
  • The strength, radius, and duration of the camera shake.
  • Turning the ear-ringing sound on or off.
  • Enabling debug logs.
