First Person POV

Scroll fully in to enter first person with your body and gear visible. Scroll out to return to third person. F1 toggles the HUD.

The camera follows your head's movement while aim stays independent. Your body turns with your view, a drawn bow tilts aside, and looking down gradually fades your body and equipment. Includes adjustable walking sway and underwater blur.

Install

Requires BepInEx. Install with a Thunderstore mod manager, or place FirstPersonPOV.dll in BepInEx/plugins/. Install on your client; no server installation is needed.

Settings

Edit BepInEx/config/jpvalheim.firstpersonpov.cfg, or use the console:

ffpov
ffpov MovementSway
ffpov MovementSway 0.5

These list settings, explain one, and change/save its value. Type ffpov and press Tab for suggestions. Boolean settings accept on/off or true/false. No devcommands is needed.

Crosshair settings control visibility by activity. ShowBowDrawCircle controls the tightening bow circle separately.

Default FOV is 80. Updates preserve saved settings; use ffpov FirstPersonFOV 80 to apply it to an existing config.
