LAir's End Update
by LAirHisson
LAir's End Update reworks the End dimension of vanilla Minecraft by adding structures, mobs and resources, along with a few quality-of-life changes that keep the original look.
What it does
The mod adds to the End without replacing its layout. Its additions include a new underground system beneath the surface called End Caves, where Enderite Ore lifts nearby players into the air, along with End Ponds whose special water pushes harder than regular water. Enderite Clusters block some passages and can be used in redstone systems and farms.
Villages gain late-game content, including a Totem Trader who sells totems in exchange for Totem Coins crafted from Enderite. End Shulker Outposts and Pillager Outposts appear across the End, and End City chests hold valuable loot. A Swapper shulker variant swaps its position with the player on hit, which makes combat less predictable.
Installation runs on NeoForge for 1.21.1 only, with the latest file being 1.1 from 2025-07-01. Client and server both need the mod. Extra Totems and Extra Weapons are optional; installing Extra Totems adds further village content. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Cursed End Update is also NeoForge, but only for 1.21.4, and is released under the MIT License without being open source.
