the 1.16 version is for fabric folks, i dont even know how to write forge mods in 1.16 anyway
Auto Third Person is a tiny mod that automatically puts you in third-person camera when you fly an elytra or ride an animal, boat, or minecart. When you stop flying or leave your vehicle, your camera view will be restored to whatever it was before you started.
Great for navigating tough terrain with your horse or boat - having the additional visual context can be super useful, and it's really annoying to have to press F5 a million times >.>
The types of entities that trigger this automatic camera toggle behavior, whether your camera will automatically be restored when you leave, and whether you are able to cancel the auto-restoration by manually changing the camera setting, are all configurable.
But wait, there's more! Order now and I'll throw in a config option to disable the "first-person flipped" camera, for that Minecraft Beta feel, absolutely free! Shipping and handling not included
Some notes on the Fabric version: An in-game config menu is available if you have ModMenu and Cloth Config. Unlike most mods that use cloth config, it is an optional dependency and I don't bundle it, for filesize reasons. In a large enough modpack you're like 99% sure to have Cloth Config available through some other mod. (Even if the in-game config menu is not available, you can re-read the config by reloading resources with F3+T.)

Thank you for update the mod! :) Much better play minecraft with this mod!
This mod makes me happy as I have wanted this for quite a while.
Is this releasing for Forge on 1.16 too? Noticed a new file came out for Fabric, and I'd really like to have automatic third-person mounts back in my Forge mod pack for 1.16.
No
In reply to quat1024:
Alright, thanks for the response :D
"first version for Fabric"
Thanks!
any plans to support newer versions?
Been in the 1.15.2 Fabric port backlog, since frankly I like this mod too
In reply to quat1024:
Could you send me that backlog for fabric, I would love to use this on servers. (I hope this works without it installed on servers.)
Can I add other moments in which it changes and maybe remove some?
Um, I think the config file is fairly extensive and should cover what you need to do.
In a mouth-foaming attempt to find a mod that lets me disable the front view, I've looked past this mod a few times knowing its primary function is to auto switch to third person when riding horses and such. And then I actually downloaded and installed this mod and realized it features the *extra* option of disabling front view. And for that, I'll be using this mod for a while.
Mr. Quat, I wish there was more of an emphasis on that option so people Googling that feature could come across this mod more.
In fact, if there's time for you, could you perhaps make a stand-alone mod that is *just* about disabling the front view?
I have AutoRestoreView turned on but when I use my elytra and it switches to third person view and i then stop flying, I will still be in thrid person view.
Edit: I just noticed it never restores my view, no matter what I use.
Odd 🤔
In reply to quat1024:
Turns out the issue was caused by having this mod installed alongside RandomTweaks mod, which offers the same feature. Disabling one or the other will fix the issue.
Oh, good to hear!
is Shoulder Surfing supported?
Never heard of it! Maybe?
Third person boat?!
Yes that's what it used to be called before i added other things.
