Dynamic View
by collin-b1
Dynamic View switches the camera perspective automatically when a player swims, flies, rides, or crawls.
What it does
Dynamic View changes the player's camera between first person, third person back, and third person front depending on the activity the player is doing. Each context can be toggled on or off on its own. Perspective changes are animated rather than snapping instantly. Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it. Fabric API is required on Fabric. Files exist for NeoForge and Fabric, for 6 release versions 1.21.11 – 26.3, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the project is open source.
Key features
Automatic perspective switching
The camera changes view when the player swims, flies, rides, or crawls, without any manual key press.
Per-context toggles
Every context has its own on or off switch, and its view can be first person, third person from behind, or third person from the front.
Animated transitions
Perspective changes are animated, so the camera moves smoothly instead of snapping to the new view.
