What it does

The mod reworks the third person camera to match the behavior of other third person games. Movement follows the direction the camera points, and the second person camera is removed. Mod Menu is required to open its settings, which adjust the starting view and the distance the camera can reach, up to 10 blocks. It is client-side only, so servers run without it. Files are published for Fabric and cover 26.1.2 – 26.2, with 1.0.0-26.2 for 26.2 as the latest file. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Camera pivots around the player

    The camera orbits the player, so the view moves relative to the direction the camera is pointing.

  2. Facing-based actions

    Movement and actions are carried out toward wherever the player is looking, matching the feel of other third person games.

  3. Adjustable camera distance

    Settings control the starting view and how far the camera can move away, up to 10 blocks.

What the author says

Brings the Third Person View more in line with what other third person camera games offer. This means that you can move the camera pivoted around your player and it will move relative to your camera. Actions are performed in the direction the player is facing. Not the camera.
