gCAPS

by AmberFrost

gCAPS puts a Gboard-style keyboard on the player's head, so a player can type by moving the head and clicking.

FabricQuiltClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20 – 26.3

What it does

The mod is a reimplementation of a Gboard CAPS keyboard for Minecraft. A player wears the keyboard as equipment, presses the Y key to bring up its controls, and moves the head to choose letters. Left click types the selected character, middle click changes the layout, and right click sends the typed message.

Control settings can be changed in the configuration, so the key that opens the keyboard and the input behaviour can be adapted to the player's preference. Both the server and every player need the mod, and it depends on Fabric API. gCAPS is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric and Quilt across 1.20 – 26.3, with the newest Fabric file, 1.1.1+26.3, built for 26.3.

Key features

  1. Head-controlled typing

    Moving the head picks a character on the keyboard, so text can be entered without the keyboard or mouse.

  2. Wearable keyboard

    The keyboard is worn as equipment, and it is opened with the Y key.

  3. Mouse click actions

    Left click types, middle click changes the layout and right click sends the message.

  4. Configurable controls

    The key bindings and control settings can be changed in the configuration.
