About Motion Capture

From Modrinth

Allows you to record and replay player movements

About

Motion Capture is a mod that allows you to record and replay player movements. It is created mainly for people who want to create complex scenes in Minecraft without using real players.

It records:

  • movements
  • sprinting, jumping, swimming, sneaking
  • swinging hands
  • using items
  • items in hands and armor
  • states like being on fire, being invisible, or glowing
  • placing, breaking and interacting with blocks
  • nearby entities and riding them

After you save recording, you can create a scene to which you can add multiple recordings or other scenes with parameters like player name, position offset, or start delay.

How to use

  • First, you need to start recording using ``/mocap recording start``. It will record all your movements or movements of a player given as an argument.
  • Then, you can stop recording using ``/mocap recording stop` and save it with `/mocap recording save [name]``.
  • Use ``/mocap playing start [name] (player_name) (mineskin_url)`` to play recording.
  • You can also create scenes to which you can add multiple recordings or other scenes, with parameters like player name, position offset, or start delay.
  • To create scene use ``/mocap scenes add (scene_name)`. Then, add your recording using `/mocap scenes addTo [scene_name] [recording_name] (delay) (x_offset) (y_offset) (z_offset) (player_name) (skin_source_type) (skin_source)`` (you can skip arguments in round brackets if you want).
  • To play scene use ``/mocap playing start .[scene_name]`` - you need to put a dot before the scene name.
  • By putting a dot before name, when using ``/mocap scenes addTo [...]``, you can also add scenes to other scenes.
