Snap Perspective
by motoroel
Snap Perspective lets a player hold a key to switch the camera view temporarily, then returns to the original perspective on release.
What it does
Snap Perspective is a Fabric utility for the client. A configured keybind changes the camera to a different perspective while it is held, and releasing the key restores the view the player started with. The mod supports switching between first person, third person back and third person front. Files target 1.21.11 – 26.3 and are released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, with source code available.
