Brace For Impact

by ImPuma1

Brace For Impact is a Fabric sound mod that plays emergency warnings when an elytra's durability runs low during flight.

What it does

When a glider's durability drops, the mod plays plane emergency sound effects tied to fixed thresholds: an engine failure cue, a pull up call at 10% and 5% remaining, a mayday at 3%, and a further warning at 1%. It runs on the client alone, so servers need nothing installed and players join without it. Fabric API is required, and Mod Menu and Text Placeholder API are optional dependencies; installing Mod Menu and Text Placeholder API together is the setup the author text describes. Files are published for Fabric only, for game version 26.2, under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Durability warning sounds

    Plane-style emergency audio plays as the elytra wears down, so a pilot hears the danger without watching the bar.

  2. Staged thresholds

    Separate cues fire at 10%, 5%, 3% and 1% durability, each with its own sound.

  3. Engine failure cue

    An engine failure sound is included among the alerts for the flight warning set.
