NoGravity
by Blue-Beaker
NoGravity removes gravity from players, entities and falling blocks on Fabric and Forge, so they stop dropping when unsupported.
What it does
Gravity is switched off for most entities, including the player, and for blocks that would normally fall, such as sand or gravel. Players can float freely, and falling blocks stay where they are placed. A separate option removes the particles that gravity produces, which only changes how the effects look.
The mod needs to be installed on both the server and the clients to work as intended. Server owners should set allow-flight=true in server.properties, otherwise players are kicked for flying. The Fabric build works with the Forge build on the client side, so a Fabric server can host Forge clients. Existing entities keep their gravity after the mod is removed, so back up worlds before installing it.
NoGravity is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only. Files target 1.12.2, 1.16 – 1.16.5, with 1.1.2 for 1.16.5 as the latest Fabric file and 1.2 for 1.16.5 as the latest Forge file. The source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Player flight
Players and most entities lose gravity, so they can float and move through the air without falling.
Blocks stay in place
Blocks such as sand and gravel that normally drop are kept in place when placed.
Gravity particles removed
An optional setting removes the cosmetic particles that gravity normally produces.
Cross-loader support
The Fabric and Forge builds can be used together, with the Forge client joining a Fabric server.

Who it’s for: Players and server owners who want a world without gravity for building, play or experiments. The mod is aimed at people willing to edit server.properties and back up worlds first.
