2. Type the Command
In this example, we will shake the camera for 9Minecraft at an intensity of 4 for 10 seconds with the following command:
/camerashake add 9Minecraft 4 10
Type the command in the chat window. As you are typing, you will see the command appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Press the Enter key to run the command.
Once the cheat has been entered, the request to the player’s camera will be sent.
You will see the message “Sent a request to the following players for their camera to shake” appear in the top left corner of the game window to indicate that the command has successfully completed. In this case, 9Minecraft’s camera will now shake at an intensity of 4 for 10 seconds in positional mode.
