About this project

What does Zoom Button - Reborn add?

I reached out to Goxmeor and he graciously agreed to let me revive this mod for 1.16 and beyond. Thanks Gox!

Have you ever changed your Field of View graphics setting in your client to zoom in? Yup, that's pretty much all this mod does: it gives you a HotKey to temporarily drop your Field of View to the legal minimum of 20 and halves your mouse sensitivity.

Hold down the HotKey (default Z) to zoom. Release to zoom back out. Gox made a video explaining it all. Check it out below!

Mod Configuration

If you want to customize this mod, see %appdata%/VintagestoryData/ModConfig/zoombutton119.json.

zoomInTimeSec: 0.5
zoomOutTimeSec: 0.1
fieldOfView: 20
mouseSensitivityFactor: 0.5
changeMouseSmoothing: false

Troubleshooting

If you are permanently zoomed in for whatever reason, just go to Settings - Graphics - Field Of View and set the slider to about 70. If that doesn't work, exit to the main menu and adjust the field of view from there.
