Triggering Dynamic Elytra Vapour Trails

Reaching Flight Speed Thresholds

To see the mod's signature wingtip trails, equip an Elytra and take flight. Dynamic Elytra Mod renders twin white vapour streams directly from your wingtips, but they do not appear during slow glides.

• Maintain High Speed: Propel yourself using firework rockets or dive steeply from a high altitude.
• Watch the Speed Cutoff: The wing trails track your velocity and automatically fade away if your flying speed drops below 18 blocks per second. Keep your momentum up to maintain visible streams.

Changing Trail Thickness with Flight Maneuvers

The mod dynamically updates trail thickness based on how your wings spread and pitch during flight.

• Straight Cruising: Flying in a steady, level line produces thin, subtle streams behind each wingtip.
• Banking and Diving: Pulling into sharp turns, rapid ascents, or steep dives causes the vapour trails to turn significantly thicker and brighter, reflecting the extra aerodynamic drag of your maneuvers.
