Elytra Recipe (Vanilla Edition)

Crafting an elytra in this version uses vanilla items only. The author describes the recipe as mainly a proof of concept and says it may be rebalanced later. The version is published for Fabric only, across five release versions: 1.20, 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, with 1.1.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file.

The recipe replaces the mod's custom materials with familiar ones. Leather stands in for kevlar, a fabric-like item the original mod uses, and a copper ingot is added because the author considers copper to have few uses for its abundance. Another item, the Superb Eye of Ender, is made from nine Eye of Ender and is part of the elytra recipe. Single kevlar and Superb Eye of Ender items can be placed in a crafting table to get their parts back, but the copper ingot cannot be recovered that way.

The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing it and only the server needs it. It is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, is open source, and has public links for its source code and issue tracker. It was first published on 2023-11-07.
