NeightUp

Found what I was looking for on another forum. Ended up being fairly simple code.... Even ended up with some particles and sound, which I wasn't even looking for yet Have a few things to tweak, but I should be in good shape now!

Super dig your sig line... Guess I fell all the way to the last else statement with me first questions... I really figured it wouldn't be too awful hard. I was imagining something along the lines of an if statement in armor class about the space bar being held down, accelerate up @ "x" speed. basically extending the jump function until the button is released. With as many flight mods as there are out there, I have been surprised at how little information I can find on it. I found a small tutorial on how to write a simple fly mod that allows you to fly the same as in creative mode, but it was kind of hard to follow. I am in the process of learning Java so I can eventually write my own game. Learned enough to be able to follow along with the modding tutorials, and have a decent little mod going already. I have a mod in my regular minecraft that includes a jet pack already. I like the mechanics of it, but really wanted to have a 3D jet pack on my back when wearing it. I am mostly looking for documentation on it, but I will go back to my other mod, and finish it up. Hope to find something in the process. Thanks for the suggestion, but I will keep looking. I learn better in process.

Hello all! First, I should mention I have only been working on mods for about a week now, so super new at this, and pretty new at writing code in general. I had zero Java experience before this week, so forgive my ignorance in advance... I have designed a 3D model for a jet pack I want to mod into minecraft. This is going to be part of a larger mod, but I am starting with the jet pack, because it sounded fun mostly. I have already gotten some first steps down, making a small mod that added some blocks, ore, tools/weapons, a creative tab, a mob, and armor to the game. I started to look into adding 3D models to my mod, and ended up designing a jet pack... Now I want to use the model before I get back to the previous mod, which is nearly finished anyway. I have been looking online for a while, but it seems if you search for any combination of flying, jetpack, and minecraft, all you get is a litany of mods that have already been made, and I can't find any tutorials to get me started. I am thinking a key binding would work, but I want the jet pack to lift you when the space bar is held, and you would start falling when letting the space bar up. I am not sure if key bindings work in this way, and thought it might be quicker just to ask if anyone could give me a few pointers on what I am looking for, so I have something to reference when working out the mod...
