Features

Every feature can be turned on or off on its own, and every one has its own settings.

• Hold the key or press it once to toggle
• Scroll while zooming to zoom further in or out (up to 50x)
• Smooth animations, smooth scrolling and adjustable durations
• Lower mouse sensitivity the further you zoom in, so aiming feels the same
• Optional cinematic camera; the hand is hidden while zooming

Light sources light up their surroundings while they move, like LambDynamicLights.

• Torches, lanterns, glowstone and other light items in your hands or in the hands of other players and mobs
• Dropped light items on the ground
• Burning mobs and players, glowing mobs like blazes, magma cubes and glow squids, fireballs, lit TNT and creepers
  that are about to explode
