Handycam Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn off camera shake when I take damage?
Open the mod's configuration file and locate the damage shake settings, then set it to disabled or reduce the intensity value. You can also disable it only for specific damage types if you want to keep other effects active.
Does Handycam work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, Handycam is completely client-side, meaning it only affects your own screen and won't interfere with other players or get you banned from servers.
Why is my aim shaky when I'm trying to snipe with a bow?
The mod adds camera movement during bow draws and arrow release; check the configuration to reduce bow recoil intensity or disable it entirely if you need steady aim for PvP.
Can I disable the camera sway when walking but keep damage shake?
Yes, each camera effect (walking sway, damage shake, landing impact, etc.) can be toggled independently in the mod's config file.
The screen feels too shaky. How do I make it less intense?
Reduce the overall camera motion intensity in the configuration settings, or lower individual effect multipliers for walking, sprinting, and other actions separately.
Does the breathing motion and idle shake happen when I'm standing still?
Yes, when you stop moving, the mod adds a subtle natural breathing motion and slight idle camera shake to simulate holding a real camera.
Will Handycam cause lag or performance issues?
No, since Handycam only modifies camera behavior on your client, it has minimal performance impact and shouldn't cause lag on any system.
How do I keep the immersive effects but reduce motion sickness?
Lower the amplitude and frequency of camera movements in the config, or disable the most intense effects like explosion shake and landing impact while keeping subtle walking sway.
Does crouching reduce the camera movement?
Yes, crouching applies its own subtle camera motion effect, and the overall sway intensity is typically reduced compared to walking or sprinting.
Can I disable camera shake from explosions only?
Yes, explosion shake is a separate configurable effect that can be disabled while keeping all other camera movements active.
