About this project

What does Immersive Aircraft: Camera Zoom add?

Camera Zoom

Camera Zoom adds adjustable third-person camera distance to Immersive Aircraft.

Move the camera closer for precise flying and landings, or farther away for larger aircraft and better visibility. Camera distance changes smoothly and can be saved separately for each aircraft type.

Required: This is a client-side add-on. Immersive Aircraft must also be installed.

Features

Smooth adjustable third-person camera distance
Step-based or continuous zoom controls
Four presets: Close, Standard, Wide, and Cinematic
Separate saved camera distance for each aircraft type
Optional speed-based camera pullback
Smooth recovery after walls or other obstacles block the camera
Compact fading camera HUD
Support for compatible Immersive Aircraft add-on vehicles

Controls

Page Up	Zoom out; hold for continuous movement
Page Down	Zoom in; hold for continuous movement
Home	Reset to the standard aircraft view
End	Cycle through camera presets

Controls can be changed in Minecraft's keybind settings and only apply while riding a compatible aircraft in third-person view.

Configuration

Settings are stored in:

config/camera-zoom.properties

You can configure:

Minimum and maximum camera distance
Zoom step size and continuous zoom speed
Camera smoothing
Preset distances
Per-aircraft memory
Dynamic speed-based zoom
HUD visibility and position

Installation

Install Immersive Aircraft for your Minecraft version.
Install Fabric API when using Fabric.
Download the Camera Zoom file matching your Minecraft version and mod loader.
Place the file in your Minecraft mods folder.

Camera Zoom is client-side and normally does not need to be installed on a dedicated server.

Compatibility

Minecraft 1.20.1: Fabric and Forge
Minecraft 1.21.1: Fabric and NeoForge
Minecraft 1.21.11: Fabric and NeoForge
Java: Java 17 for Minecraft 1.20.1; Java 21 or newer for Minecraft 1.21.x
Environment: Client-side

Compatible aircraft using the shared Immersive Aircraft vehicle system receive their own saved camera profile.

Forge 1.20.1: use Camera Zoom 2.0.1, which fixes the startup crash in the earlier 2.0.0 Forge release. The current files for the other supported loader and Minecraft combinations are version 2.0.0.
