Vertigoes
by damoc1es
Vertigoes is a Forge and NeoForge utility mod that gathers a set of small, loosely themed gameplay additions, each earned through a specific in-game task.
What it does
Vertigoes adds a collection of miscellaneous items and effects, many of them tied to achievements such as drowning in a swamp biome, breeding twenty animals, killing twenty-five Drowned or thirteen villagers. Completing a task transforms a tool or item in the inventory and grants a benefit, and some of these benefits are disabled for certain actions, such as killing a villager or curing a zombie villager. The author describes the mod as a small collection of random extras rather than a single large system.
The server and every player need the mod installed. It is published for Forge and NeoForge only, under the Apache License 2.0, and the source code, issue tracker and wiki are all public. Files exist for 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and 1.21.1, with the latest NeoForge file built for 1.21.1 and the latest Forge file built for 1.19.2.
Key features
Ender Myosotis teleport
A one-use item retains saved coordinates from the last time it was placed and teleports the player back within the same dimension.
Fragility status effect
The Fragility effect doubles damage taken from non-player sources, and a Velocity potion grants Haste and Speed alongside it, with an enhanced version giving stronger levels.
Plant Essence scaffolding
Right-clicking with a pearl places a special Plant Essence block that serves as indefinitely reusable scaffolding.
Area regeneration
Breaking a Beacon drops a Heart Glass instead, and a 9 by 9 by 9 area effect gives nearby players Regeneration II.
Lingering Potion editing
A Lingering Potion can be used to change which potion effect it applies.
