Fantastic Wings

by Fuzs

Fantastic Wings gives players animated avian and insectoid wings that they can use for aerial travel, grown through a brewed potion.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 26.3

What it does

Players brew a special potion that makes wings grow from their back, and each wing type moves with a fluttering, folding and stretching animation while walking, gliding or flying. The mod offers two wing families, elegant avian wings and colorful insectoid wings, each with several designs. Flight controls can be toggled, and the wings also let a player stop flying mid-air and float safely down instead of falling. Bottled bat blood removes the wings again.

The mod continues the original Wings mod by Pau101, and the author credits that work as the foundation. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 14 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License. Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric, Forge Config API Port and Puzzles Lib. Forge Config Screens is optional, and Mod Menu can be added to change settings in-game. Client and server both need the mod.

Key features
