Why Show the Crosshair While Spectating?

Spectator mode normally hides your crosshair since you can't interact with the world. However, you might want it visible for consistency, or to help you aim your camera view at specific locations.

Enable Spectator Mode Crosshair

1. Open your mod configuration settings

2. Go to Crosshair Tweaks options

3. Search for "Show crosshair in spectator mode" or "Spectator crosshair"

4. Toggle this setting to enabled

5. Save your changes

When This Helps

Keeping the crosshair visible in spectator mode is useful for:

  • Recording or streaming—maintaining visual consistency across different modes
  • Framing shots when flying around to observe your world
  • Helping you center your view on specific blocks or players
  • Creating cinematic content where the crosshair aids composition

Since you can't place or break blocks in spectator mode anyway, the crosshair won't interfere with gameplay. It simply serves as a visual reference point for where you're looking.
