Dash's Pitch and Yaw Capture Mod
Dash's Pitch and Yaw Capture Mod saves the exact camera pitch and yaw with a single keystroke, so a player can return to that orientation later.
What it does
Pycap, as the mod is also called in its author text, is a Fabric client mod for Minecraft 1.21.10. A player presses one key to store the current camera pitch and yaw, then snaps the camera back to that saved orientation whenever it is needed. The author describes it as useful for locking a precise angle while building, framing a cinematic shot, or aiming a throw such as an ender pearl.
The mod is client required and server optional, so a player can use it alone in single-player or on a server that does not have it installed. Its built-in configuration system covers the basic settings, and an option lets the player turn action-bar notifications off for a quieter screen. Dash's Pitch and Yaw Capture Mod needs Fabric API for 1.21.10 to run, and Fabric Loader must be installed beside it. It is not open source, the source code is published for inspection, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Single-key orientation capture
One keystroke stores the exact pitch and yaw of the camera at the moment it is pressed.
Precision snapping
The camera returns to the saved orientation exactly, not approximately, when the snap action runs.
Quiet notifications option
Action-bar messages can be switched off, so the mod does not add chat or HUD clutter.
Lightweight build
The mod is small and adds little overhead to a client running Fabric on 1.21.10.
Simple configuration
A built-in configuration file holds the basic settings and can be edited without extra tools.
