zuum lets players zoom the view out with the scroll wheel, with a step size and transition timing the player can change.

FabricQuiltClient-side onlyMIT License1.21.11 – 26.1.2

What it does

Scrolling the mouse wheel zooms the camera out, and the amount of zoom is shown in the action bar while it changes. The heads-up display can be hidden during zooming, and view bobbing is reduced while the zoom is active so the picture stays steady. zuum is a client-side mod, so only the player's client needs it and a server can run without it.

zuum ships with 14 transitions already installed, including ease sine and ease out sine. The step size can be modified, and the transition duration can differ depending on whether the wheel is scrolled up or down. The mod is published for Fabric and Quilt, with builds for 1.21.11 and 26.1 – 26.1.2, and the latest file is version 1.0 for 26.1.2. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Scroll-wheel zoom

    Scrolling the mouse wheel moves the camera out, so the view widens without a separate key.

  2. Adjustable step size

    The distance covered by each wheel step can be changed to suit a slower or faster zoom.

  3. Direction-based timing

    Zooming out and zooming back in can take different amounts of time, set separately for each scroll direction.

  4. Fourteen preinstalled transitions

    Easing curves such as ease sine and ease out sine come bundled, so the animation style can be picked without extra installs.
