DoxBreath (TaCZ Recommendation)

Short description

Hold your breath while aiming down sights to steady your gun. Suppresses aim sway, idle breathing wobble, and part of the camera recoil for a limited time — then you run out and must recover. Built for TACZ guns; loads safely without TACZ (feature simply inactive).

Features

• **Steady aim on demand** — hold the key (default **Left Ctrl**) while ADS to suppress aim sway, freeze the idle breathing wobble, and cut camera recoil.

• **Limited stamina** — ~5 seconds of held breath, then it depletes and needs ~6s to recover; fully depleting locks it until recovered (no spam-holding).

• **Exhale kick** — running out drops your aim in a short gasp animate-and-return, with breath-in/out sounds (local only).

• **Smooth, frame-based** — stabilization fades in/out per frame (not per tick), so it never stutters and reacts instantly.

• **Broad TACZ integration** — hooks TACZ's own sway / idle animation / camera recoil, **and** the alternate sway & recoil systems added by **TaCZ Additions** (scope sway handler + custom recoil), so it also works in packs where those replace the built-in behavior.

• **Soft by design** — loads with no crash when TACZ (or TaCZ Additions) is absent; the relevant hooks simply stay inactive.

• **Translated into 20 languages.**

Minecraft versions

This mod ships two lines, and they are not interchangeable:

• **1.x** — Minecraft 1.20.1, Forge

• **2.x** — Minecraft 1.21.1, NeoForge

Both are maintained. Pick the file whose major version matches your loader; a 1.x file will simply not load on 1.21.1, and vice versa. Dependencies follow the same rule — 2.x mods require 2.x of the Dox mods they depend on.

Requirements

• **DoxCore** (required, matching version line). **TACZ** (optional but needed for the feature to do anything).

• **TaCZ Additions** (optional) — automatically integrated when present; not required.

Controls

• Hold Breath — default **Left Ctrl** (rebindable; overlaps vanilla Sprint but only acts while aiming a gun).
