Description

ShoulderSurfing

Shoulder Surfing Reloaded is a highly configurable third person camera mod for minecraft.

Features

• Over-the-shoulder camera - see what you are interacting with in 3rd person
• Decoupled camera - walk left and right without turning your mouse
• Free look (default: "left alt") - keep walking in a direction while looking in a different one
• Hotkeys to move the camera (default: "arrow keys", "page up" and "page down", "o" to switch shoulders)
• Corrective cross-hair positioning when using adaptive or dynamic crosshair
• Adaptive player transparency - fades the player model to transparent when view is obstructed
• Highly configurable - customize your 3rd person experience with many configuration options
• Client side only - no server mods required

Please note that this mod modifies the camera position and player movement, which can be an issue for servers with strict anti-cheat. Use at your own risk!
