SmoothZoom is a lightweight client-side NeoForge mod that adds a smooth and fully customizable zoom system to Minecraft.

Inspired by the classic OptiFine zoom, but improved with smooth animation, scroll zoom control, and cinematic camera movement.

Now you can inspect distant terrain, mobs, builds, and players with a buttery-smooth zoom transition — no spyglass required.

🎮 How It Works

Simply press C (rebindable) to zoom in.

Instead of instantly snapping the camera, the zoom smoothly transitions using real-time interpolation, creating a clean and cinematic feel.

Release the key and the camera smoothly glides back to the normal view.
