HoldCam
by yuko1101
HoldCam lets a player hold a key to look through the back or front camera for as long as the key stays pressed.
What it does
Holding a key switches the view to a third-person camera and returns to first person on release. Pressing the F5 key once selects the rear camera, and pressing it twice selects the front camera. Keybindings for holding the view are provided, with R for the rear camera and G for the front camera. It is open source under the MIT License and published for Fabric and NeoForge, covering game versions 1.21.10 and 26.1.2.
Key features
Hold-to-look rear camera
Holding R shows the rear third-person camera, which returns to first person when the key is released.
Hold-to-look front camera
Holding G shows the front third-person camera, which returns to first person when the key is released.
F5 camera cycling
Pressing F5 once selects the rear camera as the default, and pressing it twice selects the front camera.
