How do I install EcoBalance?

Install the matching mod loader (Forge, Fabric or NeoForge) for your Minecraft version. Download the .jar. Put it in the .minecraft/mods folder and launch that loader profile. Opens on Modrinth — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

What Minecraft version does EcoBalance work with?

The listing gives Minecraft 1.20, 1.20.1, 1.20.2, among others. This is the version stated by the author or source site, not something we verified ourselves.

EcoBalance

by DanirGame · on Modrinth

A hardcore plugin where nature fights back! Cut trees to trigger storms and spirits, or plant saplings to get rewards.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

🌿 EcoBalance - Nature Strikes Back!

Attention: This plugin 1.0-1.1 supports the Russian language.

EcoBalance is an atmospheric, hardcore Minecraft survival plugin that forces players to respect the environment. If you destroy the forest without replanting, the world itself will turn against you!

🔥 Features:

🌲 Forest Anger Meter: Every log you break increases the forest's wrath (tracked per player). If you reach 64 broken logs without replanting, you face Instant Death!
⚡ Severe Thunderstorms: Breaking too many trees triggers dark, heavy storms. Watch out — real lethal lightning will strike right at your feet!
🪓 Tool Resistance: Angry trees harden their bark. Your axes will mine slower and lose durability faster with every strike.
👥 Hordes of Forest Spirits: Nature will summon a strike of visual lightning and unleash a pack of 3 invisible, extremely fast, and venomous Forest Spirits right behind your back!
🌱 Environmental Redemption & Blessing: Placing saplings lowers the forest's anger and clears the weather with an epic thunderclap effect. Peaceful players who plant trees with 0 anger have a 10% chance to receive an Apple as a gift from nature!
⚙️ Fully Configurable: Comes with an automatic config.yml file where server owners can customize broken log limits, drop chances, and custom chat messages.

🛠️ Installation:

Drop EcoBalance-1.0.jar into your server's plugins folder.
Restart or reload your server.
Enjoy the hardcore mechanics!
