How to make your FM26 look like FIFA!

Experience your most emotional match scenes exactly as if you were watching a real TV broadcast! The 3D-LiveActionCam captures the action on the pitch dynamically and fully automatically from spectacular, cinematic camera angles.

With this massive update, the mod transforms the entire matchday experience. It brings an intelligent event-tracking system, in-game camera controls, and dramatic slow-motion effects directly into your game.

 

PATCH NOTES V3.0:
🎥 9 Brand New Perspectives: Look forward to new angles, including a referee first-person cam, more celebration cams, and a spider cam.

📸 Perfect for Screenshots: You can now pause and resume the camera at any time using the Spacebar – ideal for taking your time to capture the best snapshots of the match.

🎬 TV-Style Camera Sequences: Goal celebrations just got more dynamic! After a goal, the camera no longer just stays on the goalscorer, but seamlessly switches to capture your manager's emotions on the sidelines.

🚫 Nameplates Removed: The player UI is completely hidden during the action, providing a clean, realistic look without any distracting elements on the screen.

 

Key Features

Create Your Own In-Game Cameras (NEW): You can now set up your own camera perspectives directly in-game! Press the J key to save static cameras instantly, or use the 9 key to set start and end points for dynamic camera paths. These profiles are saved stadium-specifically.

Community Sharing: You can find your created cameras under BepInEx/plugins/3D-LiveActionCam/CustomCams/ – simply share the text files with the community!

IMPORTANT: The in-game key controls only work in custom stadiums and strictly require the installed FreeCam Mod (by Bassyboy)!

BallCam & Slow-Motion (NEW): A brand new, intelligent ball-tracking camera that offers a configurable slow-motion effect for maximum drama in decisive moments.

Anti-Lag System (NEW): The ball-finding logic has been completely rewritten and now uses a clever caching system to prevent performance drops during camera transitions.

 

Advanced Event Tracking

The camera no longer reacts only to goals but automatically targets the most important key scenes of the match:

Manager Focus: Captures emotional reactions on the sidelines.

VAR Cutscenes: Spectacular stadium flyovers and cinematic camera sweeps during VAR decisions.

Defensive Heroes: Special camera angles for reflex saves, goal-line clearances, or last-man tackles.

Injuries & Scuffles: Shows medical staff, stretchers, and heated confrontations on the pitch.

Referee Perspective: Dynamic close-ups for fouls, cards, and offside decisions.

 

Technical Enhancements

Steadycam Effect & Tripod Mode: Thanks to newly implemented smooth-follow algorithms (Position Lerp & Rotation Slerp), shaky movements are compensated for. For penalties, the camera locks into a rigid "Tripod Mode."

Extensive Configuration: Customize almost every aspect via your BepInEx configuration file, including FOV, position, rotation, and slow-mo factors.

 

Bug Fixes & Improvements

Spectator Glitch Fixed: Resolved an issue where spectators in the stadium would sometimes disappear or display incorrectly during camera events.

UI Visibility Repaired: Fixed a bug where the user interface (UI) and nameplates were not displaying correctly.

Improved Camera Focus: Target tracking via the internal match engine has been refined to minimize false focusing.

 

Installation

Ensure BepInEx (IL2CPP) is correctly installed for your game.

Unpack the downloaded .zip file.

Drag the contained folder into your BepInEx/plugins directory.

Start the game and enjoy your highlights at a broadcast TV level!

 

Note: This is a modification for advanced users. After the first game launch, a configuration file will be generated in the BepInEx/config folder, where you can fine-tune all camera coordinates and event timings to your liking.

Take a look in the BepInEX/config/ file; you can experiment with quite a lot there 🙂

Quite interesting mod, @Joni9.
I have a question: the close-up players' cameras seem in slow motion and I also noticed frame drops.
Is the slow-mo camera intended to work in this way or does it need to be polished in terms of performances?

Please tell me! The players' faces and hairstyles in the screenshots look so realistic—why is that? Is it due to a specific mod? Or does this mod actually change the players' faces to look more realistic?

Hello Master!

Could you tell me where exactly to paste this?

I don't have a folder like BepInEx.

I've never used a mod like this before, so maybe I'm missing something.

Can you help me install it?

The game was purchased through Epic 😀

Hello my friend! You can get bep in ex, for example, with BassyBoys Stadium Mod or Tracksuit (which is smaller in download) (both are linked!). The Stadium Mod also has a really good description and explanation of everything in the videos!

Hi man, awesome mod!

 

I have a request/question.. What if I wanna use just plain broadcast view from bassy's edition - the bit more calm camera as main. And then use your goal cam, ref cam etc? Like I wanna use some of the parts. I cant seems to figure out if its an option or not..

 

I love the idea, but its a bit to mixing everything and jumping around for me.

Excellent work, some of the shots are really good, for example:

  • The stadium shots
  • The bench or manager shots
  • The ref shots when there is a free kick
  • The replay shots were you can see someone celebrating
  • Penalty shot view is excellent!

 

And, some things should improve imho. A few  things that I've noticed (most important to least important):

  • The 2d classic camera should never get overwritten by your camera's. It's a different view, that should just work as normal and not be interfered with.
  • If you set the game to “only commentary”, the camera still switches and it's a whole lot slower than without your mod. This should also be fixed, as there's games in which people don't want to see everything.
  • It's changing camera when the ball is in play and it's not a replay. This shouldn't happen. Imho the camera switches should only happen when the ball is out of bounds OR when there's a free kick / penalty/ throw in OR when the goalkeeper has the ball in hand OR when we're watching a replay.
  • When the camera is tracking the goalkeeper, it seems to be attached to the goalkeepers body. And when they walk up they wiggle a little, causing the camera to rotate back and forth. I think it would be better if the camera's rotation would not be attached to the goalkeepers body, and just stay on the same angle.

 

That's it for now. Really promising mod, I hope it can be improved so it can be widely adopted!

Yes my friend, that's possible 👍🏻 Look in the config file, you can turn all the cameras on and off there 🙂

Thanks! And thank you so much for the tremendous feedback, my friend! It will all be incorporated into the development of the new version! Especially the 2D match issue – I had absolutely no idea about that problem! Thanks!!
