Dragon's Projectile Fix
by Twez
Dragon's Projectile Fix is a Fabric client mod for 1.21.11 that corrects small projectile desyncs and rendering bugs during fights with the Ender Dragon.
What it does
Projectiles in the dragon fight can drift out of sync between the server and the player's screen, and some render incorrectly. This client-side mod smooths the path a projectile follows on screen and reduces those visual desyncs, so what a player sees matches what happens in the world more closely.
The fixes run only on the client, so the server and other players do not need the mod. A config menu lets a player turn individual features on or off. The mod also includes its own support for the armor HUD interface used in the dragon fight.
Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.11 alone. The mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source. Support covers the current version only, so older game versions are not planned.
Key features
Projectile desync fixes
Small desyncs between the server and the client in projectile movement are corrected, so hits line up with what is visible.
Smoother projectile paths
The on-screen path of projectiles is made smoother, reducing jitter as they travel.
Rendering bug fixes
Some projectile rendering bugs are fixed, so projectiles appear where they actually are.
Toggleable features
A config menu lets players enable or disable individual fixes.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Ender Dragon fights
Players fighting the dragon with bows and other projectile attacks see steadier, more accurate paths on their own screen.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric 1.21.11 who notice projectile jitter or desync in the End. Only the client needs the mod, so it can be added to a single-player world or to a player's own client on any server.
How it compares
Universal Input Sync is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21.4 under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and it is not open source. GlassSync is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21.5 – 1.21.11, released under the MIT License and open source, so it covers a wider version range than Dragon's Projectile Fix.
