AeroBind
by TheKryzzz_
AeroBind rebuilds the Minecraft controls menu for Forge 1.12.2, with search, a visual keymap and key combinations for players who run many mods.
What it does
Players open the controls screen and begin typing an action name, such as zoom or sprint, and the matching key is highlighted at once. A single click on a category header opens or closes it, which lets players tuck away the entries they never touch.
Key combinations let an action be bound to a chord, for example Shift + R or Alt + C, which helps when a modded setup runs short of single keys. Filters limit the list to keys active in-game, such as movement and jumping, or those used only in the inventory. Mouse sensitivity, auto-jump and mouse inversion can be adjusted straight from the menu, so there is no need to return to the main settings screen first.
The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it and a server can run without it. Files are published for Forge 1.12.2 only, with 0.2.7 as the latest file, and the license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Instant search
Typing an action name highlights its bound key immediately, with no scrolling through long lists.
Visual keyboard
A keyboard view marks occupied and free keys, making it easier to plan a new layout.
Key combinations
Actions can be bound to chords such as Shift + R or Alt + C, adding room beyond single keys.
Filters and quick settings
Filters show only active keys by context, and mouse sensitivity, auto-jump and mouse inversion can be changed from the menu.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players of Forge 1.12.2 modpacks that add many keybindings, and players who want a faster way to customize controls.
How it compares
MultiBind is a Forge mod for 1.8.9, released into the public domain under The Unlicense, so it is open source and covers an older version. Zoom Control is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 under All rights reserved, and it is not open source. Keymap is open source under the ISC License, runs on Fabric, Forge and Quilt for 1.17.1 – 1.19.2, and is client-side only. AeroBind targets 1.12.2 only, so it does not match any of these version ranges.
