Minecraft is a huge collection of diverse recipes with which you can create the most unexpected things. For example, if the New Year is approaching, you can think about how to bring the New Year mood into the game. It is very simple to do this, since there are a variety of toys and decorations that will make the game world brighter. But it’s worth paying special attention to the fireworks at Minecraft, as it can offer you something incredible - a real heavenly show. And you will be the conductor in this show, since you get full control over what patterns appear in the night sky.
Fireworks, salutes, rockets
Everyone can start the fireworks at Minecraft, as this does not require certain skills. You just need to pick up this item and click on the right mouse button. Officially, it is called a rocket, but still users are used to calling it a firework or cracker, as is customary in real life. However, if you want to make fireworks in Minecraft, you will have to learn a fairly large number of subtleties.
Craft rocket
First of all, you need to do the manufacturing of the rocket body itself. To begin with, we will consider the basic recipe for preparing fireworks at Minecraft. To do this, you will need gunpowder, paper and an asterisk, the manufacture of which will be discussed later. It is worth noting that already at this stage you can start experimenting and bring personality to your fireworks. You can add from one to three blocks of gunpowder, which will affect the altitude of the missile, as well as its duration. If there is one block of gunpowder in the recipe, then the explosion will last one second, and if three, then three seconds. But keep in mind that you can still fill in empty cells with asterisks to vary the color, so distribute the materials as you like. You need to be longer and higher - use more gunpowder, and if you want brighter, then add more stars. By the way, stars can be generally excluded from the recipe, but then the rocket will simply fly into the sky, and the explosion will not happen. That's how the crafting of fireworks in Minecraft takes place. And now it's time to figure out what kind of star you added to the workbench cells.
Asterisk as a key component of fireworks
An asterisk is the main charge that carries fireworks. If you want to learn about how to make fireworks in Minecraft, then you can’t do without knowledge of the asterisk. It is crafted very simply - dyes are added to the powder block, they determine what color the spark will have when the fireworks explode. But do not dwell solely on this, because you will have the opportunity of secondary crafting. However, this time you will be able to set the color transfusion, that is, red can turn into yellow or blue. To do this, you need to craft a finished star with another dye. It turns out quite a wide variety of effects that you can add. But at the same time, colors and transfusion are not all that you can bring to the fireworks at Minecraft. The recipe can vary even more thanks to modifiers that will make your fireworks truly unique.
Sprocket modification
When crafting stars, do not use all cells for dyes - leave one or two empty, as you have the opportunity to modify your fireworks. The first thing to consider is a couple of effects that you can add. If you include light dust in the recipe, then you get an exciting visual crackling effect. If diamond is used instead of light dust, the explosion of fireworks will not disappear instantly from the sky, but will leave a trail. Naturally, you can combine these two effects, but do not forget that the number of cells when crafting an asterisk is limited, and you still have the opportunity to change the shape of the explosion to make it even more spectacular.
Various forms of fireworks
You already know how to craft a rocket, add an asterisk to it, change and diversify colors, and even improve salute with visual effects. It remains to consider the last point - the form that your explosion will take. If you do not use any of these modifiers, then your explosion will have a standard round shape. But if instead of one of the dyes you put a pen, the drawing of a salute in the sky will be asymmetric. The gold nugget in the recipe turns the explosion into several beautiful stars, and the fireball into a huge circle. But the most interesting thing is adding a mob head to your fireworks. If you do this, the salute will look like a creeper's head. You can make it colorful and iridescent, or you can add naturalness and use only green dye. It goes without saying that, unlike visual effects, you can use only one ingredient to change the shape of the explosion.
