True Favorites (Neoforge)
True Favorites locks chosen items in a player's inventory so they cannot be thrown away, dropped or lost on death, and it gives each locked item a visible icon.
What it does
Players mark important items as favorites so accidental drops and deaths do not remove them. The protection covers gear such as enchanted diamond tools and armor, as well as totems of undying, and it stays active while the locked icon is hidden. Locking and releasing items is done from the inventory, and every item keeps its place while the lock is set.
The mod is built for NeoForge and is published for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 across eleven release versions. Only the client and the server need it, and the server enforces the protection, so the server and every player must run it. Its latest NeoForge file is 2.0.1-1.21.x for 1.21.11, released 2026-10-09, and the code is under the MIT License, though it is not open source.
