Being the Ship Guy in Lethal Company is a hard job, so why not make that easier with a new camera angle? Here’s how to download the Helmet Cameras mod


Lethal Company is a very popular co-op survival indie horror game that was published on October 24, 2023, by the developer, Zeekeerss and the game is currently in early access. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic and retrofuturistic dystopian world. An anonymous corporate organization named the “Company” hires players on a contract to explore abandoned and industrialized moons to collect scraps for sale and meet a profit quota every 3 days. During these exploration adventures on the moons, players have to face many dangerous creatures, which range from entirely harmless, almost comical creatures to instant one-hit killers. Collecting scraps is not an easy task because when night falls, the outdoor monsters come out so exploring the facility is impossible.

For this very reason, many teams assign a Ship Guy or Camera Man or Operator to be inside the ship and monitor all players through the ship monitors and communicate to them about monsters and nearby scraps. However, the camera or available scan of players right now is something not enough as you can never tell what monster is after them. To fix this issue, modders of the game took it upon themselves to add to the game the Helmet Cameras mod. This mod makes the second large monitor on the ship display a first-person point of view (POV) of the player. Hence, here is how to download the amazing Helmet Cameras mod in Lethal Company.

The Helmet Cameras mod is a type of mod that adds a new camera angle to the ship. As the name suggests, it is a first-person POV head camera that lets the designated Ship Guy look at exactly what the person being monitored is looking at. It is a mod created by the user RickArg on Thunderstore, the popular website for Lethal Company mods. This camera angle is added to the second largest monitor inside the ship, next to the main one. This means, the regular feed of the camera outside the ship is moved up the small monitor up top and the camera inside the ship has been disabled. 

This mod is perfect for the designated Ship Operator to be able to monitor every player properly and not only be able to see the normal monitor screen but also see another angle. The first-person POV lets the ship person see exactly what the teammate is seeing, resulting in the directions being more thorough and cohesive, which can allow for more fluid communication. The mod is fully customizable through the configuration settings, which will let you configure the camera’s render distance, FPS setting and quality in general. The mod also supports giving camera feeds for more than 4 players, which can sync with mods such as the BiggerLobby mod.

How to download the Helmet Cameras Mod

Unfortunately, the Helmet Cameras mod is not an individual mod file, so you have to go through a whole process with a few other steps to install the mod into the game. To install the mod, you need to install 2 different mods including the main mod. However, it is truly worth it going through the process because who doesn’t want to be able to have a whole new camera angle to view players as they navigate the facility? Hence, here is the full process you need to follow to download the Helmet Cameras mod in Lethal Company:

Also, make sure to get the latest updated version of the mod, which is at version 2.1.5 at present, to ensure that it works properly. The developers are working on it and making updates to the mod every day, so appreciate the effort!

As for using the mod, there are no extra steps required to get it working in-game except, of course, restarting the game’s client and making sure that your game is working with the mod in it. You can synchronize the mod easily with your friends by having them install the mod as well because this mod requires all the lobby members to have it installed for it to work properly. Hence, all of you can enjoy the encounters with your friends altogether as long as you all have the same version of the mod and have the mod properly installed.
