Proper Toggle Sneak Sprint

by Itamio

Proper Toggle Sneak Sprint lets a single press of the sprint or sneak key start or stop that movement, so players no longer have to hold the keys down.

What it does

Holding the sprint and sneak keys can become tiring, and double-tapping sprint often starts sprinting by accident. This Forge mod for 1.12.2 switches both actions to one press each. Pressing the sprint key once starts sprinting in any direction, including forward, backward and sideways, and pressing it again stops. The same applies to sneaking with the sneak key.

The mod uses the normal sprint and sneak keys rather than adding new bindings, and the double-tap sprint trigger can be turned off. Sprinting also boosts flying speed, and the sprint state is shown on the status HUD, so a player can see at a glance whether sprint is active.

Only the server needs it, and players join without installing anything. The mod is published for Forge on 1.12.2 only, with the 1.0.0 file dated 2026-04-09, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Source code, an issue tracker and a wiki are linked publicly by the author.

Key features

  1. Toggle sprint with one press

    A single press of the sprint key starts sprinting, and another press stops it, instead of holding the key.

  2. Toggle sneak with one press

    The sneak key works the same way, so sneaking continues until the key is pressed again.

  3. Double-tap sprint can be disabled

    The double-tap trigger for sprinting can be switched off, which reduces accidental sprinting.

  4. Sprint boosts flying speed

    While flying, sprinting increases movement speed, and the sprint state appears on the status HUD.
