ArmorWeight
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
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.
A simple mod to increase the difficulty of the game.
Main features of the ArmorWeight:
- Armor now has weight. Depending on the total weight of the player, a new "Encumbrance" effect will be applied, which is equal to the slowness. Mobs can also be affected by weight (can be changed in the config).

- HUD bar that shows current weight level and new tooltips for armor items.


- The weight of an armor item can be reduced with the new "Lightness" enchantment, which reduces the weight by 15% per level.
ArmorWeight is compatible with other mods that add armor items. To apply weight to such items, all you need to do is add an item entry to the config file.
