PWrideperspective
With PWrideperspective, a rider can switch the camera to a cinematic view while mounted on a mob, and steer the camera apart from the mount.
What it does
The Fabric mod changes how riding works for mobs. Mounting and dismounting use smoothed camera transitions, and the rider can move the camera independently of the direction the mount faces. A first-person combat mode lets the rider aim and fire from the saddle, with projectiles such as crossbow bolts, snowballs, eggs and wind charges.
PWrideperspective runs on the client alone, so a server does not need it and players join a server without installing anything. It requires Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Mod Menu. Files exist for 1.21.4 – 26.2 across 12 release versions, and the latest Fabric build, 1.0.27-beta-26.1-26.2, targets 26.2 and is on the beta channel. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source, although the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Smooth mount transitions
Mounting and dismounting move the camera smoothly between the player's view and the mob's view.
Independent camera control
The camera can be steered separately from the mount, so the rider looks in a direction other than the one the mob travels.
First-person combat from a mount
A combat mode lets the rider fire projectiles such as crossbow bolts, snowballs, eggs and wind charges while riding.
Mob riding tweaks
Several riding mechanics are adjusted slightly, changing how mobs respond when a player rides them.

Use cases
Cinematic riding
Players who record or screenshot rides can use the separate camera and smooth transitions to frame a mount from outside the saddle view.
Mounted combat
Players who fight from horseback or from another mob can switch to the first-person combat mode and aim while staying mounted.
Who it’s for: Players who ride mobs in singleplayer or on servers, and want a camera and combat setup for mounts. Installing the mod on the client is enough, since servers do not need it.
