FOVEffects+
by TheXGuy
FOVEffects+ lets players set how the field of view changes under potion effects, bow draws, powdered snow, Soul Speed and submerged water or lava.
What it does
Vanilla Minecraft narrows or widens the view for several states, and FOVEffects+ gives each one its own control. A player can keep the speed and slowness effects as they are, shrink the effect on bow aiming, or turn off the change in powdered snow. The settings live in a menu reachable through Mod Menu, which is required together with Cloth Config API.
The mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players can join a server without installing it. Files are released under the MIT License and the code is open source, with source and an issue tracker public. Builds exist for 26.1 – 26.2, and the latest Fabric file is 1.0.0 for 26.2, published on 2026-08-26.
Key features
Field of view control
Each supported effect has its own FOV setting, so the view can be adjusted for a single state without changing the others.
Speed and slowness effects
The field of view change from the Speed and Slowness potion effects can be scaled or disabled independently.
Bow aiming and Soul Speed
The narrowing of the view while drawing a bow and the change caused by Soul Speed can each be adjusted or turned off.
Powdered snow and water
The view changes in powdered snow and when submerged in water or lava are covered by their own options.

Use cases
Playing with a steadier view
A player who finds the default changes distracting can reduce or remove the ones they dislike while keeping the rest.
Adjusting a single effect
Someone who likes the speed effect but not the bow zoom can keep one and turn off the other.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who want fine control over the field of view changes that vanilla applies to status effects and actions. Installation requires Cloth Config API and Mod Menu.
