📋 About This Mod

Simple SmoothCam preset that builds upon the vanilla camera. The player is focused in the center of the screen with little to no interpolation. 3D crosshair and arrow prediction are disabled by default, feel free to enable.

Combat Evolved edit - My personal edit of the original preset. More visceral combat bringing you closer to the action. As well as moving your character slightly to the left for more visibility. Still little to no interpolation. My personal recommendation.

Load "Soft Preset" from the 3rd slot in the SmoothCam MCM. "Comabt Evolved" is loaded from the 5th slot in the MCM.

As requested this is the SmoothCam preset I use in most of my YouTube videos.
