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.
