What it does

Elytra Feather Falling adds Feather Falling as an enchantment that an Elytra can accept. While a player is fall-flying, the enchantment softens the descent by lowering the effective downward gravity, and higher levels soften it further. Levels II, III and IV are each available. The gliding feel of vanilla flight is kept, because the mod changes the gravity input and applies a small upward velocity rather than replacing the flight behavior.

The mod is built for Fabric and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it for the motion to stay consistent in multiplayer. Builds cover 26.1 – 26.1.2, with 1.0.0 for 26.1.2 as the latest file. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the project is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only.

Key features

  1. Feather Falling on Elytra

    The Feather Falling enchantment can be applied to an Elytra, so the wings accept an enchantment they do not have in vanilla.

  2. Reduced effective gravity

    During fall-flying the enchantment lowers the effective downward gravity, which slows the descent.

  3. Three enchantment levels

    Levels II, III and IV are available, each giving a stronger reduction in descent.

  4. Vanilla glide feel

    Gravity is modified and a small upward velocity is injected, so the gliding behavior stays close to vanilla.

What the author says

Make Elytra compatible with Feather Falling and soften Elytra descent by scaling gravity (not by adding artificial upward boost). For multiplayer, install it on both server and client to keep motion behavior consistent.
