Crosshair Bobbing Reborn

by GordeyStudio

Crosshair Bobbing Reborn makes the crosshair follow the camera's view bobbing, hurt tilt and attack swings, replacing the frozen crosshair in the middle of the screen.

What it does

Normally the crosshair stays fixed while the whole view bobs and sways as the player walks, jumps or takes damage. This mod ties the crosshair to that movement, so it moves with the view, and adds a set of animations on top of it: swings on attacks that scale with attack strength, a full spin on heavy critical hits that alternates direction, a wobble while eating, and a spin while a crossbow winds up and loads.

Bows and tridents stretch the crosshair while the weapon is drawn, sneaking tilts it, and switching hotbar slots dips it briefly. The mod is an unofficial revival of an older mod for Minecraft 1.21, and it targets 1.21.1 only. Builds exist for Fabric and NeoForge, and the mod runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it. The license is the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, which the code is released under, and the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. View-following crosshair

    The crosshair moves with view bobbing, walking sway and hurt tilt instead of staying fixed.

  2. Attack swings

    Hits swing the crosshair, with the size of the swing scaling with attack strength.

  3. Critical hit spins

    Heavy hits trigger a full 360-degree spin that alternates direction between hits.

  4. Eating, crossbow and draw effects

    Eating makes the crosshair rock, a crossbow charge spins it through a full turn, and bows and tridents stretch it while drawn.
