Craftable Elytra tweak

by Rolls_Royce

Craftable Elytra tweak lets players build Elytras at a crafting table from rare materials, so flight is earned in survival rather than found.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.21 – 26.3

What it does

Elytras become craftable recipes that use phantom membranes, blaze rods, diamond chestplates and feathers, so a player gathers those materials before flight is possible. The mod is meant for servers that want flight to come from exploration and effort; a data pack form makes the change available on servers without adding a mod to each player's installation. Only the server has to run the mod, and clients may leave it out. Files target 1.21 – 26.3 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the code is not open source, released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Crafted Elytra recipe

    Elytras are made from rare materials, with phantom membranes and a diamond chestplate among the ingredients.

  2. Survival progression

    Flight is obtained through gathering and crafting in survival, not by finding a wing in the world.

  3. Data pack option

    A data pack version delivers the recipe on servers, so flight stays more accessible while vanilla play is kept.
