FarClimb

 

This is the first public alpha release of FarClimb.

FarClimb is a climbing mod that lets you scale cliffs, mountains, and other vertical surfaces using a pair of climbing axes. Instead of relying on ladders or vines, you can freely climb walls, hang from a single axe, and pull yourself over ledges.

The core climbing mechanics are now playable, but the mod is still in active development.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.4
• Fabric Loader
• Fabric API

What’s included?

• Climb walls using independent left and right climbing axes.
• Move up, down, and sideways while attached to a surface.
• Hang from a single axe and sway before reattaching.
• First-person climbing axe animations.
• Third-person climbing animations.
• Camera movement while climbing.
• Pull yourself over the top of ledges.
• A dedicated FarClimb Creative Mode tab.
• A craftable Climbing Axe.
• Debug text.

Known alpha limitations

• The temporary Climbing Axe uses the vanilla iron pickaxe model.
• First- and third person planted-axe positioning is still being refined.
• Some player skins with outer layers may render incorrectly while climbing.
• Multiplayer hasn’t been tested yet.
• Recipes, animations, and gameplay balance are all subject to change throughout the alpha.

Planned features

• Refined first/third-person climbing animations.
• Wall-jumping while climbing. (Jumping across or up gaps of up to 2 blocks using wall-jumps.)
• An improved texture for the Climbing Axe.
• Further adjustments to climbing speed, movement, and overall gameplay balance.
• Different surfaces will affect how well the Climbing Axes can grip, with some surfaces causing the player to slide down or lose their grip entirely.
• Climbing Axes will have durability and wear down through use.

Currenlty working on

• Improving and refining the first and third-person climbing animations.
• Improving camera and look movement while climbing, so looking around is limited to natural head movement instead of rotating the player’s entire body.
