📋 About This Mod
Not really much to say,
It's a preset i made for SmoothCam that's inspired heavily by Souls.
I tried to stick as true to Souls as I could, but i think there's a few differences that make it unique on it's own.
Disclaimer: I did not make SmoothCam, only this preset. Credit for SmoothCam goes to mwilsnd
HOW TO USE:
1. Download with Mod Organizer 2

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (820k+) shows it's a fan favorite
- Endorsement ratio is solid—2,879 people vouched for it
- Tweaked to the max, so you get a distinct Souls-like vibe without fiddling yourself
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021—might not play nice with the latest Skyrim patches or SmoothCam versions
- Requires SmoothCam as a base mod, so that's an extra dependency to manage
- Preset is subjective—if you don't like Souls camera, this won't change your mind
For Skyrim players who want a more dynamic, combat-focused camera like Dark Souls. If you're tired of the default floaty cam and want something that feels weighty and responsive, this is for you. Skip if you prefer the vanilla camera or don't use SmoothCam.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure SmoothCam is installed and working before adding this preset.
- Load the preset in-game via the SmoothCam MCM menu to apply it.
- If the camera feels too intense, tweak the sensitivity settings in the MCM to your liking.
