Eye of Nether
by Shvara
Eye of Nether is an adventure mod with a nether-fortress locator item that players craft from Ender Pearls and gold ingots.
What it does
The mod adds an Eye of Nether item that points toward nether fortresses, similar to how an Eye of Ender locates strongholds. Players can obtain it through piglin bartering, where it is crafted from an Ender Pearl surrounded by Gold Ingots. A data pack version also exists for players who prefer an in-game alternative based on Chunkbase data.
The server must run the mod, while players may leave it out. Eye of Nether is not open source and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 26.2 only.
