Aligns local-player projectiles to the camera crosshair so cinematic / shoulder third-person cameras stay usable.
Your arrows, bolts, spears and magic go where the reticle points — without forcing a first-person camera or changing FOV.

- Supports bows, crossbows, thrown spears, elemental magic, blood magic
- Per-weapon toggles in config
- Client-side only

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
