When will you update to [Older version]?<\/p>\n<p>**A: No**. I mod Minecraft as a hobby with very limited time. Therefore, I will not backport this mod to older versions of Minecraft, and I will update it to future versions when I feel like it. If you want it updated to newer versions, feel free to contribute to the mod and make a pull request, it&#8217;s appreciated! Otherwise, don&#8217;t come begging.<\/p>\n<p>#### Q: Can I include this mod in a modpack?<\/p>\n<p>**A: Yes you can.** Please however provide credit and a link to the Modrinth project page.<\/p>\n<p>###### Copyright (C) 2025 Ladysnake<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fabric client-side mod designed to improve Minecraft&#8217;s ambience through particles, visual effects and sounds<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":61800,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"effective","_minecraft_project_id":"pcPXJeZi","_minecraft_author":"Ladysnake","_minecraft_license":"LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved","_minecraft_downloads":2674665,"_minecraft_follows":3293,"_minecraft_client_side":"required","_minecraft_server_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"effective.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":617675453,"_minecraft_version_count":22,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-16T07:31:29.973194Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2023-06-22T21:44:36.084371Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2025-02-22T21:38:56.017985Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/effective","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":61800,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-03T14:10:28+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"6449f316dda30fc1c4da6ad874807dbf","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[156,97,98],"mod_loader":[99,100],"minecraft_version":[51,52,56,36,37],"class_list":["post-61799","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-decoration","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-quilt","mod_loader-fabric","mod_loader-quilt","minecraft_version-1-18","minecraft_version-1-18-1","minecraft_version-1-19-2","minecraft_version-1-20-1","minecraft_version-1-21-1"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
