MacUtils
MacUtils puts a few client-side controls on the keyboard, including locking the pitch and yaw of the view.
What it does
MacUtils is a Fabric utility that works on the client only, so servers and other players do not need it. Its features are controls and a settings screen rather than gameplay changes: a player can lock the camera's pitch or yaw, open a configuration screen from a key, and set up custom commands that are bound to keys. Each option can be adjusted in the config screen.
The mod is published for Fabric alone, across four release versions in the 1.21.1 – 26.1.2 range, with the newest build 1.6.0 for 26.1.2 dated 2026-05-18. It is released under the MIT License, and the source code is public. MacUtils is open source. Its author is PotatoSlayer56, and the page lists it as a Utility mod.
Key features
Pitch and yaw locks
Separate keys lock the vertical and horizontal view angle, so the camera stays fixed while the player moves.
Open config screen
A key opens the mod's configuration screen directly from the game, without editing files.
Custom commands 1 to 5
Five command slots can be filled in the config screen and triggered from the keyboard.
Customisable keybinds
The keys for the lock and command actions can be changed in the config screen to suit the player's layout.
