ArcPath
by bul
ArcPath draws the predicted flight path of a throwable item in the player's hand, with a marker where it will land.
What it does
While a throwable item such as an Ender Pearl is held, the mod renders a trajectory arc that follows the projectile's predicted path. The calculation takes the player's current velocity into account, so the arc shifts as the player moves. A landing target marker shows where the throw will end, and the arc stops at living entities when one lies on the path, with the marker appearing at that point.
ArcPath is a client-side Fabric mod, so only the player's client needs it and servers run without it. It requires Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Mod Menu. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for 26.1 – 26.1.2 with three release versions, the latest being 1.0.0-beta-2 for 26.1.2, released on 2026-07-19 on the beta channel.
Key features
Trajectory arc per item
Each throwable item can use its own arc style, so a pearl and a potion can be told apart at a glance.
Gradient arc colors
The arc can blend a start color into a second color along its length, with the gradient set in the options.
Configurable landing marker
The landing target marker takes a shape that can be set separately for each throwable item.
Entity hit detection
Where the arc meets a living entity, it ends there, and the landing marker shows at that contact point rather than on the ground.
Saved trajectories
A key shows previously calculated trajectories, and the debug overlay is enabled by default.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who throw Ender Pearls or other projectiles and want the landing point shown on screen. Only the client needs the mod, so it can be added to a server player's install without server changes.
How it compares
Eye Cross is also a client-side Fabric mod under the MIT License, but it targets 26.1.2 – 26.2, so it covers a later range than ArcPath. Robin Hood is a client-side Fabric mod for 1.19.2 only, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, a narrower version range than ArcPath's. Your Ideas is a client and server Fabric mod for 1.18.2, so unlike ArcPath it has to run on the server as well.
