Description

SlenderCam — Slender: The Arrival HUD in Minecraft
SlenderCam is an atmospheric client-side horror mod for Minecraft heavily inspired by the iconic game Slender: The Arrival. This mod brings a pixel-perfect recreation of Lauren’s camcorder interface straight into the blocky world, completely transforming how you experience night-time exploration and horror maps!
Once the camera item is held in either hand, the item itself becomes invisible, shifting your entire screen into an immersive, live camcorder viewfinder.
 Key Features:
Feature How It Works In Game
Authentic Viewfinder HUD Faithfully reverse-engineered from the original reference screenshots. The closed anti-aliased frame, custom pixel-art digits, battery indicator, and REC text perfectly mimic the look of the classic horror game.
Mechanical Zoom (Press [Z]) Zoom in and out dynamically by pressing the [Z] key. The action triggers the exact mechanical zoom sound from Slender: The Arrival, complete with a functional marker sliding along the top calibration bar.
Dynamic Camera & Head Bobbing Enhances movement mechanics by adding realistic camera shifts during walking and running. Your field of view sways naturally, removing the static feel of vanilla Minecraft.
Coons-Patch Frame Warping The HUD elements never harshly shake or clip. Instead, the entire overlay smoothly bends, bloats, and distorts together with the camera’s perspective changes, replicating a real convex retro camera lens.
Immersive Overlay & Vignette Features a functional, ticking timer, a blinking red REC indicator, and smooth corner vignetting. The vanilla crosshair is automatically hidden while active to maximize immersion.
Dynamic Film Grain & Noise Covers the viewport with fine, live film grain. The noise texture dynamically rerolls and scales instantly on the fly without tanking your performance.
🛠 Technical Details (For Developers & Modpack Creators)
  • 100% Client-Side: This mod only alters your visual rendering pipelines. You can safely join any vanilla, Forge, or multiplayer server with it active.
  • No Pixel Shifting: The interface uses an analytical normal-based rendering approach. No matter your UI scale or screen resolution, the bounding frame remains perfectly smooth with no stair-steps or jagged edges.
  • Clean Code Integration: Cancels default hand rendering specifically for the camera asset to ensure that your view is never obstructed by a static item model.
⚙️ Requirements & Installation
  1. Make sure you are running the appropriate version of Minecraft Forge.
  2. Drop the mod .jar file into your .minecraft/mods directory.
  3. Equip the camera item into your main hand or off-hand, shift into first-person mode, and your view will instantly change!
Turn on your camcorder... and whatever you do, don't look back.
