Any mods that decrease the size of items on the ground?

They’re bigger than they need to be IMO and if I’m mining and ignoring the stone, they’re a real eye sore on the ground. Wish they’d take up less space, smaller like Minecraft dropped-item size.

Also, I’m curious if there are any mods that lessen the particle effects you get while mining.

Thanks. <3

Particle effect mod(s) are on the Discord. Don’t think one for size change exists though.

there is a way too reduce the size of dropped item, but it will alter every items in the game. i’ll take a look later in which file is it.

…\Boundless\assets\archetypes\itemsettings.json

{
“dropBobMagnitude”: 0.05, --> wobely effect up and down ratio
“dropBobSpeed”: 2.0, --> wobely speed between the up and down
“dropRoatateSpeed”: 1.0, --> rotation speed
“dropScale”: 1.0, --> Size of the dropped item
“dropBlockScale”: 1.0, --> not sure what this does
“dropMaxSize”: 1.0 --> maximum Size of the item when full stacked
}

There a way to remove the hammer too, the speed diamond hammer was giving me headache while mining a lot.

Oooh that would be nice.

BTW! The particle effects mod that was posted in discord seems to be about bombs specifically. I’m curious about maybe lowering the smoke/dust and “hit” mark when mining with a 3x3 hammer.

The block_break and block_hit_burst particle effects are the ones that make the dust. You can just edit the sfx file to remove those 2 particle effects from the particle effect in the []. Or you can actually edit the particle effects themselves to have a radius min and max of 0 and a lifetime of 0.

This gets especially in the way when chiseling, practically blocks view of the hit box it’s so dense

Sometimes it feels like everything in the game was made to fill as much screen as possible

And when you think you can just look up and it’ll be ok
BAM
