Better Zoom

Better Zoom v2.9, allows you to zoom smoothly with wheel scrolling and hotkeys. It offers a simple and efficent zoom with customizations. All of that without any mixin/asm, in order to improve the speed.

The goal of this mod is to provide a simple & suitable zoom with both wheel and hotkeys smooth zooming. No fancy or complicated parameters included. It still offers customizations (see screenshots below) on a Configuration GUI while running without any mixin or any additional library.

It’s also meant to be simple, compatible but still including all the necessary features, without fancy stuff.

Press “c” by default to toggle zoom. (Configurable keybind)

Press “+”/”-“ or scroll with wheel to zoom in/out ( Configurable) – You can also hold these keybinds!

*A new video and logo are being made!

Configuration GUI (Forge 1.20.1 v2.9.0 reference): (open with ‘ V‘ keybind by default) and at mods/config..:

Details:

| Zoom Increment | How much zoom it increments per scroll wheel. (useful to zoom/dezoom very quickly) |
| — | — |
| Mouse Sensitivity | The mouse sensitivity that will be multiplited by when you zoom. (adjust as you need so the camera doesn’t move too fast when zooming a lot) |
| Auto Adjust | Adjust the mouse sensitivty automatically according to the zoom level. Less sensitive when Cinematic Camera is on. |
| Smooth Zoom | A real Smooth Fade in/out when zooming |
| Hold to Zoom | Require to hold the zoom keybind in order to keep zooming |
| Easing Factor | Easing factor for the smooth transitions. Lowers = slower/smoother |
| Disable Bobbing | Disable the bob biew/bobbing while zooming |
| Cinematic Camera | Cinematic Camera movements while zooming. Slow and smooth, useful for cinematic animations/videos. Note: it’s regulated with Auto-adjust mode, if you want a stronger cinematic feel, disable Auto-adjust and set lower value for Mouse sensitivity |

(Tooltips are avilable ingame for more informations)
