Freecam
A highly customizable freecam mod.
About this Mod
Freecam
This mod allows you to control your camera separately from your player. While it is enabled, you can fly around and travel through blocks within your render distance. Disabling it will restore you to your original position. This can be useful for quickly inspecting builds and exploring your world.
This mod works in multiplayer, but may be considered cheating on some servers.
It is your responsibility to check all relevant rules before using this mod.
While Freecam should only affect the client, it may be possible for servers to detect the mod being installed through various exploits in Minecraft,
modding platforms, or this mod.
Here's a real example that exploited translation keys.
To paraphrase our license, we are not responsible for any damages or liability related to Freecam.
Among other things, this means it's not our fault if you get banned from a server.
Here's the full license.

Does Freecam need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks Freecam as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.
Which version and loader does Freecam require?
Use a file for fabric, forge, neoforge and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.2, 26.1.2, 26.1.1. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
Freecam is not working – what should I check?
First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
