Aperture 1.4

This big update features lots of new quality of life features which should help increase productivity of camera creation, and two features that extend camera capabilities.

Compatible with McLib 2.0 and Minema 3.5 (optionally). It doesn't mean that future versions of McLib (or Minema) would be incompatible, but older versions are most likely incompatible.

  • Added mouse control to flight mode (left click drag changes yaw and pitch, horizontal right click drag changes roll, and vertical middle click drag changes FOV)
  • Added keybinds config category to flight mode (suggested by Lucatim)
  • Added keybinds in flight mode to change the overall speed of flight mode (suggested by Mr Wolf)
• Improved follow modifier:
  • Added relative option to follow modifier

Aperture 1.1.1

This is a minor update which fixes some stuff and adds some random stuff regarding the camera.

In some situations it might be glitchy, causing a chunk freeze, but this can be easily fixed by changing render distance.
