Description

No longer maintained.

 

Backports 1.9.2 Elytra to 1.8.9, 1.7.10, and 1.9. Supports vanilla resource packs to override texture and sound, works with capes, has Quark-style dyeing, everything. Craftable by default, can be configured.

 

The 1.9 version only backports the sounds, if you want dyes and recipes see Craftable Elytra and Quark.


The 1.7.10 version doesn't support non-default Elytra textures, from either capes or player info.
