Easy Freezing
by LinkTRC
Easy Freezing is a Forge and NeoForge mod that lets a player freeze time in an area around them, a server-side effect built for the Cursed category.
What it does
Freeze time is the mod's central effect: a player can stop the movement of entities and projectiles inside a set area, and the effect is applied on the server. Several other effects sit alongside it, including arrows that can be shot, a trident that can be thrown, a creeper that can be made to explode, and a swimming behavior in which the player takes no damage while staying in water. The author notes list these as the mod's gameplay additions.
The author describes the mod as mainly for play with friends, and warns that several players using the effects at once can get confusing quickly. The card lists it as server-side only, so players join without installing it and only the server runs the mod. Easy Freezing is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Builds exist for 1.20.4 and 1.21.1, with 1.0.3 for 1.20.4 and 1.0.4 for 1.21.1 as the latest Forge and NeoForge files, both published on 2025-02-28.

Use cases
Playing with friends
Groups on a multiplayer server can try the freeze and projectile effects together, though the author warns the result can become hard to follow with many players.
Who it’s for: The mod suits server owners and players who want a chaotic, Cursed-category add-on for multiplayer sessions. Because it is server-side only, only the server needs to run it.
