Avarii Balloon
by SkyArchitec
Avarii Balloon adds a large pirate airship to the world, a floating structure with several interior levels that players can find high above the terrain.
What it does
The structure is a suspended balloon of fabric joined to a wooden platform below, and it is built for travel through the sky. Its interior is split across multiple levels, with the commander's cabin on the highest one and open areas lower down where the crew works. The design keeps the Avarii pirate style while adapting it to flight, which sets it apart from the ships the Avarii used on the seas.
The Avarii Balloon is a structure added through a data pack, so it is generated in the world rather than running as a separate program. Installing it on a server is enough for the structure to appear in new terrain. Because the build is server required with client optional, players can join without it, and the mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Files cover 1.20 – 26.3 across 24 release versions, and the latest file is 1.0+mod for 26.3, released 2026-10-06 under All rights reserved.
