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).

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.
  • 
• 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.
• 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).
  • 
• Enter a name and save (if needed, other settings such as priority can be changed).

Dependencies

• Fabric:
  • Fabric API
• Both:
  • (Optional but recommended) Cloth Config API

FAQ

• A part of the model (e.g. hair) is always in the way, how to make it invisible?
  • Increasing this value may help

• Model Mod Compatibility Requirements with Real Camera (Based on Official Mappings)：

• Render Timing Compatibility

  • Real Camera renders Minecraft.getCameraEntity through the public method EntityRenderDispatcher.render
  • The invocation timing has been moved to occur before the Camera.setup phase within the GameRenderer.renderLevel workflow
  • Therefore, mod implementations should ensure that the overall rendering behavior remains unaffected by this timing adjustment

• Vertex Data Acquisition

  • Real Camera obtains vertex data by overriding the MultiBufferSource multiBufferSource parameter in the EntityRenderDispatcher.render method
  • Therefore, mod implementations need to:
    • Use only the provided multiBufferSource parameter when rendering Minecraft.getCameraEntity
    • Avoid alternative approaches for obtaining or creating MultiBufferSource instances
    • Ensure all vertex data ultimately passes through VertexConsumer objects acquired via MultiBufferSource.getBuffer
