Quartz Elevator Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) – Simple Vertical Travel in Minecraft

Quartz Elevator Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) provides a lightweight and reliable way to move vertically in Minecraft, perfect for base builders, redstone users, and server players alike. Inspired by classic elevator mods like OpenBlocks and Simple Elevators, this mod introduces two core blocks Quartz Elevator and Smooth Quartz Elevator that allow instant travel between floors simply by jumping or sneaking. As long as the elevators share the same X and Z coordinates, players can jump to go up and crouch to go down, no redstone required.

The mod is easy to set up, highly configurable, and supports both visual and gameplay customization. Whether you want fast access across floors or a stylish way to structure your home, the Quartz Elevator Mod makes vertical movement seamless.

Instant Teleportation between elevators aligned along the Y-axis (same X and Z).
Two Types of Elevators: Quartz Elevator – Max distance: 16 blocks
Smooth Quartz Elevator – Max distance: 64 blocks
Simple Usage:
- Jump to go up
- Sneak to go down
Mod Compatibility: Works with most building styles and tech setups.
Survival-Friendly Recipes for both elevator types.
