Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

Minecraft 1.19–1.20.1Newest
Minecraft 1.18–1.18.2
Minecraft 1.17–1.17.1
Minecraft 1.14–1.16.5

⬇ Download for 1.19–1.20.1 ⬇ Download for 1.18–1.18.2 ⬇ Download for 1.17–1.17.1 ⬇ Download for 1.14–1.16.5

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.

ElytraProtection (Fabric)

Minecraft Fabric mod that allows all protection enchantments to be put on elytra (including blast/fire/projectile protection)

I made this as a more "vanilla-like" and slightly less overpowered version of the mods that let you wear a chestplate and elytra simultaneously
