A mod that replaces Elytras in the End Cities with Elytra Fragment which is required for Elytra’s crafting recipe that this mod adds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n\ud83d\udd0e F.A.Q<\/summary>\n

– **Q: Does this mod affect already generated End Cities?**
\n – **A:** It does not. This mod only applies to the End Cities which is generated after it’s installed.
\n#
\n– **Q: Does it work with mods or datapacks that changes End Cities or End Ships?**
\n – **A:** Yes. It does.
\n#
\n– **Q: Does it work on Forge with Connector?**
\n – **A:** Yes. It does.
\n#
\n– **Q: Can you port it above 1.21.5?**
\n – **A:** No, use Harder Elytras instead. This mod is not a replacement, it’s my interpretation of it for older versions.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

### Credits:<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Elytra Fragment texture is made by Shizotoaster<\/p>\n

And thanks to Cassian for helping out on how to code this.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
