Particle Rain replaces the default rain with some particle effects. In addition to snow and rain, deserts have sandstorms and mesas have red sandstorms.
If you have mod menu installed you can change aspects of the particles like gravity and density through the config menu.
The mod is entirely client side so you can use it on servers. Particles are also somewhat laggy in general so your performance may suffer slightly if you're not using optifine or sodium.
Requires Fabric API
FAQ:
Forge?
Feel free to do it yourself. If you're just here for sandstorms you might like Dynamic Surroundings
Does it need to be installed on the server?
No it's client side only. Purely visual.
Is the mod compatible with [XYZ]?
idk, try it.
Can you add or change [XYZ]?
Maybe.
Could you possibly port the newest version to 1.16.5 (unless it already works in 1.16.5, in which case I'd done something wrong)? I've been waiting for the ability to toggle the gravity of specific weather types for so long but now that it's here, I can't use it in 1.16.5 where I was intending to use it in the first place.
this is one of my favorite mods
Amazing mod! but in the last update (1.3.0) if "Render Vanilla Weather" is toggled off, the rain doesn't make any sound.
It looks amazing! the sandstorms make deserts so much cooler! Will you update to 1.17?
Is it possible to make it for 1.8.9 I wanna use seus renewed on bedwars and see how it looks with rain, if its not thats all good too
Hola! He añadido tu mod a mi review de mods que probablemente todo el mundo quiere conocer. Esta en Español. Espero que te guste.
Hi! I added your mod to my review of mods that probably everyone should know. It's in Spanish. I hope you like it.
I live in an acacia village and I didn't know how much I would miss rain lol
You can actually gain more FPS by installing this mod because the rain is replaced by particles. so if you get a particle culling mod and the particle rain mod you wouldn't be losing FPS you would be gaining more FPS
this mod is badass . despite the mod description, there was no lag , even on my terrible computer . desert " rain " looks particulately good ( heheheh ) , and im surprised that no one has thought of it before .

Good to hear! also I'm pretty sure sandstorms have been done a few times before. I got the idea from dynamic surroundings.
Hey, is this client side?
Nevermind
Is this mod still compatible with 1.16.5? If so could you add the tag for it so that CurseForge client users can find and add the mod to their packs?
In reply to jakey1995abc:
he did it
Will this work with sodium
Great mod! It would be nice if one could change the particles via a config file, if possible
I was wondering if I could use this on a server since its just a visual effect

In reply to Dengie:
why does everyone always ask that stupid question even tho it says it. Everyone who is new to modding always asks that.
Some sort of fog system to reduce visibility during sandstorms would be a neat option. I'm pretty sure you generally can't see too well during sandstorms irl.
Very nice mod, clean and simple.
I would like to request features that are basically more config settings. :)
1. A third particle setting: speed.
2. Particle options expanded to be per rain/snow/dust weather type.
3. Each of the three particle types able to be toggled between vanilla or mod.
This would mean I could make snow fall more slowly and less densely, while still keeping the rain feeling heavy, or even vanilla. (Currently it does feel like the snow falls a bit too fast.)
4. A global "Particle speed multiplier" and global "Particle density multiplier" that is applied when the "thunder" weather is occurring.
This would mean I could feel a difference between snowing weather and a blizzard, or a dusty breeze compared to a sandstorm.
5. Someone earlier suggested having the dust change directions on occasion. I second that idea. :)
