Perspective

A lightweight free-look camera mod for Fabric. Look around your character in third person without changing the direction your character actually faces — perfect for admiring builds, checking your surroundings, or just playing with a more cinematic view.

Features

Free-look toggle — press a key to decouple the camera from your character's facing and look around freely.
Hold or toggle mode — choose whether the key toggles free-look on/off, or only activates it while held.

How to use

Press F5 by default (rebindable in Controls) to toggle free-look. While active, move your mouse to look around independently — your character keeps facing forward.
