Create:Parachute
by AkashiSCO
Create:Parachute adds parachute blocks, canopies and entity models that players deploy from vehicles and seats to glide down safely.
What it does
Parachutes are built with Create wrenches on a parachute block, which can be turned into a seat cushion. Sitting in the seat works like a Create seat, and the canopy color can be set with a dye controller. A parachute vehicle can be assembled and deployed with a redstone pulse.
Custom parachute models load from a parachute folder. Blockbench projects in .bbmodel and .png form work, as do OBJ models with .mtl files and a texture folder exported from Blender. Models dropped into a local folder show up in the selection screen right away. Built-in parachutes are placed in the same folder and load without extra setup.
The mod depends on Sable, which must be installed alongside it. Physics values control how the chute behaves: a higher drag coefficient for the canopy slows the fall faster, a higher rotational damping stops spinning sooner, and a low-speed detach threshold in m/s sets the speed below which the chute separates. Create:Parachute is published for NeoForge 1.21.1, with the latest file, 1.1.4, dated 2026-10-05. It runs on client and server, and the code is under the MIT License, so it is open source.
Key features
Parachute entity
A parachute is a Java entity with a model that can be swapped for custom art without changing the code.
Custom model loading
Blockbench, OBJ and .mtl models can be dropped into a folder and used once loaded, with no rebuild needed.
Adjustable physics
Drag, rotational damping and a low-speed detach threshold tune how the parachute falls and when it separates.
Vehicle deployment
A parachute vehicle built with Create physics is deployed by a redstone pulse, and the seat keeps the Create behavior.

Who it’s for: Players building Create contraptions and pack makers who want custom parachute models on NeoForge 1.21.1. Server owners need the mod and Sable on the server, and players on the server need it too.
