Zocular

A zoom and cinematic camera mod for Minecraft, developed by Bhored.

Zocular gives you a smooth zoom, a film-style cinematic camera, and a full freecam - all in one client-side mod, configurable in-game.

✨ Features

Smooth, eased zoom with hold-to-zoom (first person) and toggle (third person).
Zoom in/out keys and scroll-wheel zooming.
Reduced look sensitivity while zoomed for steady aiming.
(Prefer another zoom mod like OkZoomer? Turn the built-in zoom off in the config and keep just the cinematic camera.)

Smooth zoom-out to a wide, far third-person view - like a cinematic chase cam.
Letterbox bars that slide in/out with a smooth transition.
Locked camera: holds still so you ride across a fixed frame, then smoothly pans to re-center you when you reach the screen edge.
Re-frame when hidden: the camera moves to find you again if you slip behind terrain.
Auto-Orbit: slowly arc the camera around yourself.
Scenic Cut (press X): instantly cut to a fresh random angle.
Vignette: optional edge darkening (Subtle / Medium / Heavy).
Shader control: automatically turn your Iris shaders on (or off) in cinematic view, restored on exit.
HUD hidden (F1-style) for a clean shot - your player and name tag still show.
Adjustable turn speed, pan duration, zoom-out distance, and more.

Detaches a real camera so the world loads and renders around it like spectator mode.
Fly with WASD, Space (up), Shift (down); hold Sprint to go faster, or Sprint + scroll to fine-tune speed.
Strict mode (collides with blocks) or Noclip mode (fly through walls) — toggle in the config.
Your player freezes in place and stays visible with its name tag so you can frame yourself.

Everything is tweakable in Mod Menu → Zocular → Configure, or in config/zocular.json5 (hot-reloads on save).

Based on Zume by Nolij (OSL-3.0).
Cinematic/freecam features inspired by OkZoomer and the Freecam / Fair Freecam mods.
