Smooth Camera

About this mod

Replaces the default snappy camera with a smooth, weighted follow system.

Features

• Smooth follow: Uses exponential decay so the camera eases into position rather than jumping to it.
• Configurable speed: Dial it anywhere from stays glued to the player to drifts in slowly after you move.
• Separate X/Y Smoothing: Set independent follow speeds for horizontal and vertical movement.
• Dead Zone: Camera doesn't move during small movements near the screen center.
• Cutscene handling: Optionally pauses smoothing during cutscenes, and snaps back instantly on map warps so the camera doesn't fly across the screen.
• Bobber Follow: Camera follows the fishing bobber during a cast.
• Impact Reactions: Camera shakes on nearby tree falls and explosions.
• Interior toggle: Turn smoothing off for small rooms where it tends to hurt orientation more than help it.
• GMCM support: All settings are available in-game through Generic Mod Config Menu.
• Languages: English, Russian and French included.
