Rainzy's Utilities gives multiplayer servers a set of vanilla-style utility blocks and items, including a waypoint stand, invisible item frames and age-changing shards.

What it does

Its items keep the look and feel of vanilla Minecraft while adding practical helpers for server play. A waypoint stand can transmit a waypoint over a long, chunk-loaded range, and an armor stand carries that same transmission, so a marker stays active without the player standing nearby. Invisible item frames can be crafted, and an invisible glow variant is included for hidden displays.

Shard Youth turns a mob into a baby permanently, but in most cases the change is purely cosmetic. Shard Aging undoes it, and the reversal takes about 5 minutes before the baby grows back into an adult. Phantom Membrane is part of the same item set. The items are craftable, and a player can also be granted an item by command, which lets server owners control access through permissions.

The mod runs on the server, and players join without installing it, since only the server needs it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and a data pack build is also available. Builds cover 1.21.5 – 1.21.10, and the latest file is 1.0+mod for 1.21.10, released 2025-10-27 on the beta channel. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
