Install the matching mod loader (Forge, Fabric or NeoForge) for your Minecraft version. Download the .jar. Put it in the .minecraft/mods folder and launch that loader profile. Opens on Modrinth — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

Freelook For Clients

by Pixelstormer · on Modrinth

A client-side mod that adds a freelook keybind, allowing you to observe your surroundings without turning your character.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Freelook For Clients

A client-side mod for Quilt and Fabric that adds a freelook keybind, allowing you to observe your surroundings without turning your character.

This is NOT a freecam mod! Freecam lets you detach your camera from your player and move it around as though you were in spectator mode, whereas freelook only serves to decouple the direction you're looking from the direction you're aiming.
