Important Information
In November 2025, I was a victim of Identity Theft. I was targeted using a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) on my PC, meaning that the attackers gained access to all my files, documents, browser profiles, banking information, card details, and all my passwords. Years worth of data that was saved on my machine.
Within a few days, they had emptied my bank accounts, taken over my PayPal account, and locked me out of my email, social media, and banking apps. My Microsoft and Google accounts were both compromised, and the machine I have been lovingly building for the past 10 years was trashed.
Over the past few months, I have been trying to re-build my life, and re-coup whatever losses I can, financially; but I've still lost several thousand pounds that I won't be able to recover. It's been a horrible ordeal that has left me with very little. I have had to go back over my whole life, and change every password I've ever set, for every website. I've had to deal with PayPal customer service, which was a nightmare. I've had multiple fraud cases open with the banks, who have all been amazing. I've had to come to terms with the fact that my entire life is now sitting on someone else's computer somewhere, and they are picking through it bit by bit. After nearly six months, I was still getting hundreds of dollars taken from my account to pay for some gift card from a site I'd never heard of.
Please be careful out there. Identity Theft is becoming easier, and easier. I am trained and certified within cyber-security awareness, I follow best practice, I work day-to-day within information security; and I still got got.
Luckily now, I am mostly back to normal, from a security point of view. My banks are safe. My PayPal is safe. It's starting to feel like it's all over. But I've lost a huge amount in the process. Thank you to everyone who has reached out in this time. All your support, and words of encouragement have been truly inspiring. Some people have asked whether it is safe to still donate, or buy me a coffee, or join my Patreon. I can thankfully now say that yes, it is. And all support is greatly appreciated. Thank you to everyone, this is an amazing community. Thank you for your patience, and thank you for being you.
Features
Temporal Stability Fix
Prevents the loss of Temporal Stability for players in Spectator Mode, ensuring your camera remains steady, and under control throughout filming sessions. Without this fix, low Temporal Stability can result in erratic, involuntary camera movements, disrupting your shots and making it difficult to capture smooth footage. This feature is indispensable for anyone recording timelapses or cinematic sequences, providing peace of mind until the vanilla game addresses these issues.
Cinematic Cam Glow
Add a striking luminescent glow to your camera account, making it easier to track and visually appealing in dark environments. Customise the glow's brightness and colour to suit your scene, ensuring your camera stands out during complex shots or night-time filming.
Toggle the glow effect via .cam glow
Change the brightness of the glow effect via .cam glow-brightness
Change the colour of the glow effect via .cam glow-colour
Cinematic Cam Targetting
Set a target position for the camera to follow as it moves along its path, allowing for dynamic tracking shots and more professional cinematography. Effortlessly change, clear, or teleport to the target position, and ensure your camera always faces the intended subject for perfectly framed footage.
Change the target position with .cam target set
Clear the target position with .cam target clear
Teleport to the target position with .cam target tp
Face the target position with .cam target face
Cinematic Cam Circular Paths
Effortlessly generate a circular path of camera points around your current location, ideal for panoramic shots, orbiting scenes, or dramatic reveals. Customise the radius, number of revolutions, and direction to achieve the perfect cinematic effect for your project.
Create a circular path with .cam circle [radius] [revolutions] [left|right]

- Fixed: Some users noticed some jumping/skipping of temporal stability in Survival Mode... which was weird. So I've completely revamped the hotfix, and ensured that it ONLY affects Spectator players. It now specifically checks whether the player is in Spectator Mode, and if not, it does nothing at all, and exits the patch. This also fixes a number of other issues, such as music not stopping, world warp effects not ending, etc. This is now as streamlined as I can make it, without re-writing the Temporal Stability mechanism. (I was seriously tempted, at one point!).
Works now. Thanks for the Update :3
The camera target should work a lot better now.
Either I'm stupid or it's not working properly. I create a path and it follows it but looks everywhere but not where I was looking.
Very cool!
