PearlFX

Make every ender pearl throw look better.

PearlFX is a client-side Fabric mod that adds animated trails, teleport effects and trajectory prediction to ender pearls. Whether you're playing survival, PvP or just exploring, PearlFX gives your pearls a fresh look without changing how they work.

Features

5 Animated Pearl Effects

Choose from five different visual styles:

• Neon Orbit – Smooth cyan and purple trails with rotating energy rings.

• Double Helix – Two glowing strands twisting around the pearl's flight path.

• Spectrum – Colourful rainbow trails that shift as the pearl travels.

• Inferno – Fiery red and orange effects.

• Frost – Icy blue trails with rotating crystal effects.

You can also disable the visual effects completely.

Teleport Effects

When an ender pearl lands, PearlFX creates an animated burst with expanding rings, swirling energy and particles that fade away.

Trajectory Predictor

See where your ender pearl is expected to travel before throwing it, including a marker showing the predicted landing position.
