FireWalker
by ChrisO345
With FireWalker, a boot enchantment lets a player walk across lava by forming solid magma under their feet, and the mod is available for Fabric and Forge.
What it does
FireWalker adds a new enchantment called Fire Walker for boots. While it is worn, the enchantment turns the lava surface under the player into solid magma, so lava lakes in the Nether can be crossed on foot and players can bridge across lava. Each of the two enchantment levels changes the size of the magma bridge that forms as the player moves.
The magma does not last. It slowly decays back into lava, which matches how the vanilla Frost Walker enchantment treats the water it freezes. The Fire Walker boots are incompatible with both Frost Walker and Depth Strider, so they cannot share a pair of boots with either. FireWalker is published for Fabric and Forge with files for 1.20.2, and its page lists source code and an issue tracker. Installation runs on client and server, so the server and every player need the mod.
Key features
Walking on lava
Boots with Fire Walker create solid magma beneath the wearer, letting them cross Nether lava lakes.
Two enchantment levels
The second level widens the magma bridges that form as the player moves across lava.
Temporary magma
Magma created by the enchantment decays back into lava over time, similar to the Frost Walker effect on water.
Enchantment conflicts
Fire Walker boots cannot be combined with Frost Walker or Depth Strider enchantments.

Use cases
Nether travel

Lava bridges
Moving across lava leaves a short-lived magma path, which can be used to reach distant areas over lava.
Who it’s for: Players who want a lava-walking enchantment for boots on Fabric or Forge, on servers that run the mod for everyone.
