Grindy Elytras
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.

Grindy Elytras
A mod that replaces Elytras in the End Cities with Elytra Fragment which is required for Elytra's crafting recipe that this mod adds.
- Q: Does this mod affect already generated End Cities?
- A: It does not. This mod only applies to the End Cities which is generated after it's installed.
- Q: Does it work with mods or datapacks that changes End Cities or End Ships?
- A: Yes. It does.
- Q: Does it work on Forge with Connector?
- A: Yes. It does.
- Q: Can you port it above 1.21.5?
- A: No, use Harder Elytras instead. This mod is not a replacement, it's my interpretation of it for older versions.

Credits:
This mod was inspired by the Harder Elytras mod, since only datapack version of it supported 1.20.1 and it was very destructive, I decided to make my own interpretation of it.
