About this Mod

Real Camera

Make the camera more realistic in the first-person view.
Supported versions: 1.18.2-1.20.4 Forge, 1.18.2-26.1 Fabric, 1.21-26.1 NeoForge.

Features

  • Bind the camera to a specific part of the body.
  • Customize the position and rotation of the camera.
  • Render player model in first-person perspective.
  • Use F6 to toggle the feature on or off and other hotkeys to adjust the camera.
  • Configure these features in the Config Screen (Cloth Config required) and the Model View Screen (0.6+).

When used with Better Combat
(Using skin_head_2 with some other options changed)

Configuration (0.6+)

  • Theoretically, most mod models are supported, but need to be configured manually:
  • First, set the key binding for Open Model View Screen.
    • gui_configs
  • Open the model view screen and left click with left Alt held to select the corresponding face of the model, scroll with left Alt held to switch between the different layers of the model.
  • By clicking the Selecting button on the left, switch between the three to select the Forward Vector, Upward Vector, and Target Plane.
  • From the top right button, enter the Preview section, where you can see the relative relationship between the camera and the model and make certain adjustments (you can also adjust through key bindings).
    • gui_preview
  • Enter a name and save.

Tips

  • Configs can have their priority adjusted - higher priority configs appear higher in the right-side list
  • Disable depth in Preview section to hide models blocking the view
  • About Disable section (current version still rough, complex operations):
    • When texture ID field is empty, use Left Alt+Left Click to select texture
    • Model parts contained by blue boxes won't be rendered
    • Left-click drag to select in texture view, other keys cancel selection
    • Left Alt+Left Click quickly selects hovered parts
    • In All mode, entire texture's model won't render (blue box containing the texture in left panel indicates this)
    • gui_disable

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Real Camera need to be installed on the Minecraft server?

No. Modrinth marks Real Camera 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 Real Camera 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.

Real Camera 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.
