Elytra Lumina Mod
by Antara89
Elytra Lumina Mod gives elytra and capes glowing, animated looks, with optional pointed elytra geometry and color effects that react to flight speed.
What it does
Worn elytra and capes receive luminous, animated finishes. Effects include a full-bright fluorescent glow, color that shifts and pulses in brightness, shimmering highlights that move as colour waves, a mirror-like sheen, and complementary two-tone gradients across the wings. Color intensity rises with speed, and a brief flash plays on landing.
The mod is installed on the client, and the server is optional. Players can run it on a single-player world or join a server without it. When a server also runs the same version with Fabric, modded clients can share which effects are enabled, and other players see them rendered. Controls and settings are handled entirely on the client side. Elytra Lumina Mod requires Fabric API, and ElytraBoosterMod is supported as an optional integration. Files are published for Fabric only, for the 1.21.1 game version, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The latest build is 2.0.0, dated 2026-07-30.
