About Motion Capture
From ModrinthAllows 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.
Commands
## Example
### Simple example of one recording used 4 times in a scene with time and position offset

### One recording of climbing stairs used multiple times in a scene with start delay
