• 😀 Quality-of-life improvements include fixing bugs where players would not remain in Freecam after rejoining the world, automatic creation of speed scoreboards, and persistent camera settings until the world reloads.

Q & A

What is the minimum Minecraft version required for Freecam 2.0?

Freecam 2.0 requires Minecraft version 1.20.50 or higher. Older versions (≤1.21) are no longer updated and lack the new features.

Do I need to enable anything special in my Minecraft world to use Freecam 2.0?

Yes, you must enable Beta APIs in your world settings. This allows Freecam to function correctly and ensures all features are available.

How does Freecam 2.0 handle multiple players using freecam at the same time?

Each player can use Freecam independently without affecting others. There is no longer a radius limitation, so multiple players can be in freecam mode next to each other.

How do I toggle Freecam mode on and off using a controller or keyboard?

You can toggle Freecam by triple-tapping the crouch button (default) within half a second. This works for both keyboard and controller. The admin menu also allows changing the shortcut to jump or disabling it.

How does Freecam 2.0 handle movement speed with different input devices?

Variable speed is supported for controllers and touchscreens, considering how far the joystick is pushed. Keyboard inputs remain binary (pressed/not pressed). Double-tapping forward increases movement speed in all directions while holding a movement key.

What is the difference between Freecam Follow mode and Freecam Follow Tilt mode?

Freecam Follow mode follows the player without accounting for head tilt. Freecam Follow Tilt mode follows the player and adjusts the camera according to the player's head tilt.

What are the key commands for managing Freecam entities and spectator mode?

`Period KP` kills camera entities in loaded chunks to prevent buildup. `Spec` toggles spectator mode if the player has the `spec` tag, and `Spec X` exits spectator mode.

How are admin privileges managed in Freecam 2.0?

Admin privileges are granted using the `free cam admin` tag. The admin menu allows assigning or removing tags, controlling camera settings, and giving access to the Freecam BE settings book. Tag names are case-sensitive.

What steps are needed to install Freecam 2.0 on a computer?

1. Enable Beta APIs in your world. 2. Download Freecam 2.0 from the RS Built website. 3. Extract the ZIP file and open the folder. 4. Double-click the extracted folder to install the behavior pack in Minecraft. 5. Add the pack to your world and ensure Beta APIs remain enabled.

What quality-of-life improvements were added in Freecam 2.0?

Improvements include returning to freecam mode correctly when rejoining the world, automatic creation of a speed scoreboard if missing, variable movement speed for controllers/touchscreens, and bug fixes for multiple players using freecam simultaneously.

How can camera settings such as height, pitch, and position be adjusted?

Use the Freecam BE cam settings book (for admins) or the regular Freecam settings book to adjust camera height, pitch, and position. Changes can be applied via the menu or specific commands such as `cam` and `cam info`.
