Description
Transform how potion effects impact your gameplay with Persistent Effects! Whether you're looking for a more forgiving experience or a punishing challenge, this mod gives you full control over how buffs and debuffs behave after death — and now even through dimension-ending moments like returning from the End. Persistent Effects ensures your active effects persist when you respawn, survive death, and even remain active when traveling through the End portal back to the Overworld.
Key Features:
-
Keep Effects After Death: Maintain all active potion effects, including beneficial buffs and harmful debuffs, when you die and respawn.
-
End Portal Persistence: Effects now persist when players jump into the End exit portal after defeating the Ender Dragon, restoring all configured effects once they return safely to the Overworld.
-
Fully In-Game Editor: Configure every aspect of the mod directly in-game using commands. No config editing, restarts, or external tools required.
-
Customizable Persistence: Configure exactly which effects remain through death or End return for tailored gameplay, from a forgiving survival experience to a punishing challenge.
-
Dynamic Notifications: Optionally display in-game messages when effects are restored, keeping players informed.
-
Vanilla and Modded Compatibility: Supports all potion effects, including those from modded content, with full tab-complete support for effect IDs.
-
Automatic Effect Detection: Instantly repopulate the effect database after adding or removing mods, automatically sorting effects into Good and Bad categories.
-
Lightweight Design: Easy to integrate into single-player worlds or multiplayer servers, with minimal impact on performance.

All settings are managed through the /PE (or /PersistentEffects) command, available to players in Creative mode. Every change takes effect immediately and is automatically saved.

Punishing Challenges:
Persist negative effects like Poison, Weakness, Mining Fatigue, or Wither through death and End travel for hardcore survival experiences, challenge maps, or RPG mechanics. -
Modpack Friendly:
Works seamlessly with both vanilla and modded potion effects, making it ideal for large modpacks and custom servers.
Whether you're crafting a balanced RPG experience, building a hardcore survival challenge, or simply removing frustrating buff loss, Persistent Effects gives you complete control over how effects behave across death, respawning, and End portal travel.
