Heavy Inventories makes the contents of your inventory affect how you move. Tools, building materials, armor, and supplies all add to your load. The weights are balanced for Minecraft, so they aren’t intended to match real-world measurements.

Hover over an item to see its weight. The ring behind your XP level fills as you approach your carrying capacity: green below 90%, yellow from 90%, and red at 100% or more.

You start with a capacity of 1,000 pounds under the default settings. A server or modpack can change both the capacity and the item weights.

• Installation — required mods and joining a server.
• Carrying weight — inventory, containers, movement, hunger, and fall damage.
• Enchantments — extra capacity and help with movement or flight.
• Elytra flight — flying with a load and using Soaring.
• Display and tooltips — change units, move the ring, or show numbers instead.

To see the rules for your current world, open /heavyinventories config server. You can read the settings without being an operator.
