  • []Movement-based shake for walking, running, and sneaking

    []Different shake patterns for melee vs ranged attacks

    []Camera response when taking damage

    []Special handling for melee power attacks

      []1-second cooldown between triggers

        Credits

        Based on Simple Subtle Camera Shake by Karut (carxt), converted to ESPless with additional features. I was given his blessing, so thanks Karut!

        Also the idea for the bullets whizzing past was definitely inspired by Bullet Snap Redux - Espless by the genius LowbeeBob

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Tight, focused design—does exactly what it says with no bloat
  • Community-tested with 135 endorsements and 7.7k downloads

⚠️ Cons

  • Small mod with a niche appeal; if you don't want camera shake, this isn't for you
  • No documentation on compatibility with other camera or combat mods—test before adding to a big load order
🎯 Is This For You?
For players who want more visceral feedback in combat—feeling every hit and near-miss. If you're tired of static cameras and want a bit of chaos, this is for you. Skip if you prefer a stable, cinematic camera or have mods that already alter camera behavior.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager, just drop the file in and enable it—no extra steps needed.
  • Test it in a low-stakes fight first to see if the shake intensity suits your taste.
  • If you have other camera mods, load this one last to avoid conflicts.
