Q: Why is the player not looking at the position of the crosshair when holding item x?
A: This needs to be configured using the config options adaptive_crosshair_hold_items
or adaptive_crosshair_use_items
.
Q: Why is the player not rendered correctly when using shader pack x?
A: This is caused by player transparency effects of Shoulder Surfing Reloaded. Either disable them in the config (adjust_player_transparency
) and restart your game or report this to the authors of the shader pack.

A: No.
Q: Can you port this to quilt, liteloader, rift, etc.?
