Elytra Contrails
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20–1.21. 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.
This mod adds realistic-looking contrails coming from the Elytra!
Initially I made a resource pack with the same goal, but that didn't look as good, so I made a mod instead!
There are many configurable options in this mod, allowing you to change the shape and length of your trail!
