View Bobbing Options Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn off bobbing for just one item?
Hold the item you want to disable bobbing for, then press Z (or your configured hotkey) to toggle bobbing off for that specific item. The setting is remembered per-item, so maps, compasses, and other items can have different bobbing preferences.
What's the default hotkey to toggle bobbing?
The default hotkey is Z, but you can change it in the settings menu by opening the mod's configuration screen and rebinding the toggle key to whatever you prefer.
How do I open the settings menu?
Open your in-game options menu and look for the View Bobbing Options settings screen, which is powered by YACL. From there you can adjust bobbing intensity, change hotkeys, and configure per-item preferences.
Can I reduce bobbing intensity instead of turning it off completely?
Yes, the mod lets you adjust camera bobbing intensity while walking or running. Go to the settings menu and use the intensity slider to find a level that's comfortable for you, which is especially helpful if you experience motion sickness.
Does disabling bobbing for one item affect other items I'm holding?
No, each item has its own bobbing setting. You can disable bobbing for a map but keep it enabled for your sword, for example.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
View Bobbing Options is a lightweight client-side mod that only changes animation settings, so it should have no noticeable impact on performance.
Can I use this mod on a multiplayer server?
Yes, this is a client-side mod, so it works on any server without requiring the server to have it installed. Your bobbing settings only affect what you see.
Does this mod work with other camera mods?
This mod should be compatible with most camera and animation mods since it only modifies bobbing behavior, but conflicts are possible depending on what other mods do. Test it with your modpack to be sure.
How do I reset my bobbing settings to default?
Open the settings menu and look for a reset button or option to restore defaults. You can also manually re-enable bobbing for any item by pressing the hotkey again.
Can I disable bobbing while running but keep it while walking?
The mod lets you adjust bobbing intensity for both walking and running separately in the settings menu, so you can fine-tune each movement type independently.
