Absolut Revive
by Goetic
Absolut Revive lets a player who is knocked out stay alive on the ground for a set time, so that allies can revive them instead of the death ending the run.
What it does
When a player's health drops to zero, the character collapses into a knocked-out state with a synchronized 3D animation rather than dying immediately. While down, the player has about 90 seconds before the wounds are fatal. A nearby ally can revive them by using a defibrillator or by working on them with bare hands, and a player who gives up can end the state with a configurable key held for three seconds, which sends them to their spawn point.
The knocked-out player is not defenseless to everyone. Other players can approach and open a searchable inventory screen on them, which shows armor, main hand, off-hand and the full inventory, and loot can be taken or the equipment secured for an ally. Sound effects play when someone searches, alerting players nearby, and monsters tend to stop attacking a downed player, which leaves a chance to be saved. Vision darkens and a heartbeat slows as the time runs out.
The mod is written for Fabric and needs Fabric API. The server and every player need the mod installed. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and public links exist for the source and the issue tracker. Files target 1.20.1 and the 1.21.5 – 26.1.2 builds, with v1.2.0b for 1.20.1 as the latest Fabric file, published 2026-07-06.
Key features
Knocked-out state
Health reaching zero triggers a collapse animation and a timer instead of an instant death.
Revive with items or hands
An ally can revive a downed player with a defibrillator or with bare hands within the time limit.
Searchable inventory
Right-clicking a downed player opens a custom screen that shows their equipment and inventory for looting or securing gear.
Give-up key
A configurable key held for three seconds ends the suffering and sends the player to their spawn point.
Totem interaction
A Totem of Undying taken as a fatal blow activates first, and potion effects that restore health can avoid the knocked-out state.
