📋 About This Mod
I love answering questions, truly! So please ask away in the comments if you've got any issues or you just don't know how to shave properly and need a few hints...
Bob is here to help clear up that Fog!
Introduction:
Removes the "Hitsparks" from hitting the ground with your pickaxe as well as the foggy cloud that emanates from the point of contact when you block. They are the same texture so I can't change one without the other, I had initially wanted a "Block!" popup but that also causes "Block!" to popup when you're mining and that's just not ideal.
Description:
-Replaces the hitsparks from mining and blocking with a blank texture so they are invisible.
Compatibility Notes:
-No mod conflicts that I know of yet.
Installation:
It's gonna have to be manual because that's how I do things right now... but it's easy trust me!
1) Install and/or update Valheim.
2) Download and/or update BepInEx.
3) Download and/or update CustomTextures.
4) Download this mod and place the "BepInEx" folder inside your Valheim directory. (usually in your steam folder something like "SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Valheim/")
Something Still Isn't Right?
-If you want to fix a texture problem for sure and in the most destructive way possible you can always delete your CustomTextures folder inside "Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/" and then redownload my mod and place the "BepInEx" folder inside your Valheim directory. (usually in your steam folder something like "SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Valheim/")
-If you want to fix a texture problem more surgically, search your "SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/CustomTextures" folder for the name of whatever texture you aren't seeing the same as the pictures. Copy both and back them up in a temporary folder and then delete one and then the other each one at a time to determine which is the one that's changing things to be different from the pictures and delete that one.
-I am also more than happy to help troubleshoot in the comments or pm me.
NoFogBob's Hitsparks-Be-Gone removes the hit spark and foggy cloud effects that appear when blocking in the game. It's a simple texture replacement that affects both effects since they share the same texture. Ideal for players who find these visual effects distracting or obstructive during combat.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Cleaner combat visuals without distracting hit sparks
- Simple texture replacement, easy to install
- Small mod with 8 endorsements and 208 downloads, niche but appreciated
⚠️ Cons
- Removes both hit sparks and block fog together, no option to keep one

For players who find the hit spark and block fog effects visually noisy or obstructive during combat. If you prefer a cleaner, more minimal visual feedback when hitting or blocking, this mod is for you. Skip if you like the visual feedback or want to keep one effect without the other.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up the original texture file before replacing it, so you can revert if needed.
- Check if the game has a mod manager or if manual file placement is required; this mod likely uses a simple file drop.
- If the game has anti-cheat or online features, verify that texture mods are allowed to avoid issues.
