How do I install Drenched Wings?

Drenched Wings

by Strange-Quark · on Modrinth

Blocks elytra use in liquids, applies environmental penalties, and enforces cooldowns. Fully configurable through server gamerules.

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.

Drenched Wings

Fabric mod that blocks elytra use in liquids, applies environmental penalties, and enforces cooldowns. Fully configurable through server gamerules.

Core Mechanics

Environmental Nerfs

20-second cooldown for elytra in rain, water, or lava.
Firework boosts disabled during rain.

Splash-Water Cooldown

Hitting a player with a splash water bottle disables elytra for up to 20-seconds, scaled by proximity.

Server-Side Control

All effects configurable via server game rules.
Fully vanilla-compliant using Minecraft’s ItemCooldowns system.

Game Rules

doElytraNerf – Global toggle for all elytra nerfs (default: true)
disableElytraInRain – Disables elytra in rain (default: true)
disableElytraInWater – Disables elytra in water (default: true)
disableElytraInLava – Disables elytra in lava (default: true)
disableRocketsInRain – Prevent firework rockets boost in rain (default: true)

Inspiration

Inspired by cubfan135’s “Minecraft’s Elytra Problem”

This mod implements his proposed liquid-based Elytra limitations as a configurable, server-side Fabric mod.
