Dynamic Elytra Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on the vapor trails?
Vapor trails are enabled by default when you glide with an elytra. If you don't see them, check your mod settings in the config menu to ensure wing trails are toggled on.
Can I disable speed lines on my screen?
Yes, open the mod's configuration settings and toggle off screen speed lines entirely, or disable them for specific activities like sprinting, falling, riding, or gliding individually.
Why don't I see trails when other players fly?
By default, wing trails on other players may be disabled in the settings. Go to your config and enable the 'show trails on other players' toggle to see their vapor trails.
Do the speed lines work with shaders?
Yes, the mod draws speed lines on top of the finished frame, so they remain fully visible even when using shader packs.
How do I change the color of the trails?
Access the mod settings and select from five available color choices for your vapor trails, then adjust the strength slider to your preference.
What's the minimum speed needed to see trails?
Wing vapor trails fade away below speeds of 18 blocks per second, so you need to be flying faster than that threshold to see them.
Can I customize speed lines for different activities separately?
Yes, the mod offers individual strength sliders for sprinting, falling, riding, gliding, and riptide boosts so you can adjust each activity's visual intensity.
Do the trails affect my fps or performance?
The mod runs entirely client-side with no gameplay changes, but intensive visual effects may impact performance on lower-end systems—you can reduce speed line strength or disable specific trail types to improve fps.
Will trails show when I fall without an elytra?
Yes, there's a toggle in the settings to enable or disable trails during steep falls, so you can choose whether to see effects when falling without wings.
How do the trails react to my flying movements?
The twin vapor trails track your wing movements as they spread and pitch, becoming thick and bright during sharp turns and thin when flying straight.
