Smaller Crystals

by Copperized

Smaller Crystals lets a client shrink or enlarge End Crystals visually with an in-game slider, without changing how the crystals behave.

FabricClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.21 – 1.21.5

What it does

The mod changes only how End Crystals are drawn on the client. A slider in the game adjusts the displayed size in real time, so a player can resize the crystals they see while the crystal logic stays as it is. Because the change is visual, the end fight, healing and explosion behavior are unaffected.

Only the client needs the mod, and a server running vanilla logic needs nothing installed. The mod is built on Fabric for game versions 1.21 – 1.21.5. Its newest file, 0.1.0 for 1.21.5, was published on 2025-12-31, and the project is listed as archived. The code is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Real-time End Crystal scaling

    An in-game slider changes the rendered size of End Crystals immediately while the game is running.

  2. Visual-only rendering

    Only the drawn model is altered, so gameplay mechanics and server-side crystal behavior remain unchanged.

  3. Lightweight client code

    The rendering change is small and adds little overhead, so it has minimal effect on frame rate.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who want End Crystals drawn at a different size, in singleplayer or on any server that runs vanilla crystal logic.
