PitchLocker 🔒
Precision Camera Control for Fabric
PitchLocker is a lightweight, client-side utility mod designed to give you absolute control over your camera's vertical alignment. With a single key press, lock your view to the horizon while maintaining full freedom of horizontal movement.
✨ Features
- Vertical Lock: Instantly snaps and locks your camera pitch to 0° (horizon level).
- Free Horizontal Movement: Look left and right freely (
Yaw) without accidentally moving your camera up or down (Pitch). - Zero Jitter: Unlike macro-based solutions, PitchLocker uses Mixins to override mouse input directly, ensuring 100% smooth camera movement with no stuttering.

Y, but fully rebindable in standard Minecraft controls.
