Vex Origin

by Mark_CG_048

Vex Origin is an Origins add-on for Fabric and Forge that gives the player a Vex-themed origin with its own elytra texture, fall damage, a smaller body size and ghostly translucency.

FabricForgeClient and serverMIT License1.20 – 1.20.1

What it does

The origin is a custom build, so it is chosen like any other origin at the start of a run. Vex Origin changes the player's body to a quarter of normal size through Pehkui, which the mod requires on both loaders. Its elytra uses a custom texture, and fall damage applies as part of the origin.

Night-time particles appear beneath blocks, and the player is slightly see-through, in keeping with the Vex theme. Movement is slightly slower than a standard character. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Origins and the Forge build of Origins are optional dependencies that bring the origin system in.

Files cover Minecraft 1.20 and 1.20.1, with 1.6 as the latest build for 1.20.1 on both Fabric and Forge. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

Key features

  1. Custom Vex origin

    Adds a Vex-themed origin that can be picked through the Origins selection screen.

  2. Custom elytra texture

    The elytra worn by the origin carries its own texture in place of the standard one.

  3. Fall damage

    The origin takes fall damage, so falls from height affect the player as they would in vanilla play.

  4. Reduced body size

    The player is rendered at a quarter of normal size, achieved through Pehkui scaling.

  5. Night particles

    Particles that show night beneath blocks appear around the player, matching the Vex theme.

  6. Translucent body

    The player is slightly see-through, giving a ghostly look that suits the origin.

Questions

Does Vex Origin need Pehkui?

Yes. Pehkui is a required dependency, and the quarter-size body scaling depends on it. It must be installed on the same side as Vex Origin.

Does the server need Vex Origin?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Which loaders and versions are supported?

Files exist for Fabric and Forge on 1.20 and 1.20.1, with 1.20.1-1.6 as the latest build for 1.20.1 on both loaders.

Do Origins need to be installed?

Origins is an optional dependency. The origin system it adds is what lets the Vex origin be selected, so it is needed for the origin to appear in play.
