ParCool!
by alRex_U
With ParCool!, players gain extra movement such as wall runs, trick jumps and charge jumps for getting over obstacles and through narrow gaps.
What it does
The mod adds acrobatic actions to the default movement: players can climb over tall blocks, vault fences, slide through tight spaces and perform a breakfall to soften a landing. Some of these actions come through a skill tree introduced in version 4.0, which can be turned off by the server if it is not wanted. Most options can be adjusted from an in-game settings screen opened with the Alt+P key.
ParCool! is built on Forge and NeoForge. Client and server both need it, so the server and every player must run the same build. Files exist for 17 release versions, 1.16.5 – 1.21.8, and the latest files are 4.0.1.5 for 1.20.1 on Forge and 4.0.1.5 for 1.21.1 on NeoForge, both dated 2026-10-15. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and source code, an issue tracker and a wiki are public.
Five other mods require ParCool!, among them Epic Compat: ParCool, ParCoolSkill, Igneo's Combat Revamp, DodgeBulletTime and Sky Lands ParCool! Compat Bridge. Two optional addons extend it: Epic ParCool, an official collaboration with an combat animation mod, and ParCool+, which fixes compatibility between ParCool and other mods. The author notes that the configuration files were not yet tested against version 4.0 at the time of writing.
Key features
Wall runs and trick jumps
Players can run along a wall horizontally and perform trick jumps that carry them over gaps and obstacles.
Charge jump
Holding the jump button builds a stronger leap that clears taller blocks than a normal jump.
Fast run and breakfall
A faster sprint and a breakfall that cushions falls from height add to the basic movement.
Vaulting over fences
Fences and low walls can be crossed without stopping, and narrow openings can be passed through quickly.
Skill tree
From version 4.0, movements are gained through a skill tree, which a server can disable.

Who it’s for: Players who want more acrobatic movement in survival, adventure or multiplayer worlds, and server owners who run parkour courses or combat modpacks that depend on ParCool!.
