Watch Me Dead

Aquarius Libs needs to be installed for this mod to work!

This client-side mod allows you to look around freely with your mouse on the death screen while holding alt and removes the red background overlay by default.

What it does

• Automatic Rotation: The camera slowly rotates around your body automatically instead of staying frozen in place
• Hold Alt to Look Around (Free Look): Holding the Left Alt key pauses the automatic rotation, allowing you to manually look around using your mouse. This action also completely hides all menu buttons for an unblocked view.
• Dynamic Zoom Controls: You can scroll your mouse wheel to zoom in and out. To keep your viewing angles steady, the camera's rotation speed slows down automatically the further you zoom in.
• No Disappearing Mobs: Nearby monsters and creatures stay visible on your screen instead of vanishing. They won't move around though.
• Removed Red Background: The standard reddish death screen overlay is totally gone, giving you a normal, clear view of the world.
  • Config option: red background visibility, hide entities after death, auto rotate speed, mouse free-look speed, zoom smoothness.

• Loaders: Forge, Fabric, and NeoForge.
• Versions: 26.1.x
• Note: No plans to support older versions below 26.1 for now
