Modern Controlling Keybind
by fdym
Modern Controlling Keybind replaces the keybinding screen for Forge 1.12.2 with its keybind module, and it needs Modern Controlling Core.
What it does
The mod includes only the Keybind module, so its scope stays limited to key assignment. Modern Controlling Core must be installed alongside it. Only the client needs the mod; a server can run without it, and players may leave it out entirely.
The author recommends turning on the Force Unicode Font option in the language settings, which the author says works better with this mod. The author also notes the mod is meant for use in modpacks. Files exist only for 1.12.2 on Forge, with 12.1.1.3-beta as the latest file, published on 2025-08-01 under the GNU General Public License v2.0 or later, so the code is open source.
