HuntVerse
by Obbiouss
HuntVerse switches the camera to first person while a player draws a bow, then restores the third-person view after the shot.
What it does
When a player holds a bow, HuntVerse moves the camera into first-person aiming, which makes lining up a shot easier. Once the arrow is released, the previous third-person view comes back on its own, so the player keeps the usual third-person play between shots. The mod is published for Forge and needs Client and server installs, with files for 1.20.1 only, and is released under the MIT License, though it is not open source.
Key features
Automatic first-person aiming
The camera changes to first person as soon as a bow is drawn, without any key press from the player.
Return to third person
After the shot is fired, the previous third-person camera is restored, so normal movement view is kept.
Lightweight design
The mod is described by its author as light, adding only the camera switch around bow use.
