VR Swing Sprint

by halfstorm

VR Swing Sprint lets Vivecraft players start a sprint by swinging their arms in a running motion, replacing the default autosprint.

What it does

Vivecraft players normally move forward with an automatic sprint that pushes them in the direction they face. This mod replaces that behavior: the sprint starts only when the player swings the arms in a jogging or running motion, in the manner of the Blade Sorcery game. Some conditions that normally stop a sprint are switched off, so the VR player keeps direction control while running.

The mod requires Vivecraft and Fabric API, and it works with Mod Menu as an optional add-on. It runs on the client alone, so players install it and servers do not need it. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 13 release versions, 1.19.2 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

Key features

  1. Arm-swing sprint

    Sprinting starts from a running arm motion instead of an automatic forward push, which imitates the Blade Sorcery control scheme.

  2. Full movement control

    Some sprint-stopping conditions are switched off, so the player keeps control of direction while sprinting.

  3. Lower motion sickness

    Removing the automatic sprint is meant to reduce the queasy feeling some VR players get from sudden forward movement.

  4. Vivecraft integration

    The sprint works with Vivecraft's VR input and replaces its default autosprint forward direction.

What the author says

Mod that allows Vivecraft players to run by swinging their arms like Blade and Sorcery! This also disables some of the vanilla sprint-cancel conditions, giving the VR player full control of their movement.
