Advancement Screenshot
by Serilum
With Advancement Screenshot installed, a screenshot is saved each time the player earns an advancement in a world.
What it does
The mod records progress through a world without any manual screenshot keypresses. Each time an advancement is achieved, a screenshot is taken using the same routine as the F2 screenshot key, so the files land in the default screenshots folder. Since only the client captures the image, multiplayer servers can run without it.
A short wait of one second follows the advancement before the capture, which gives the on-screen advancement message time to appear in the top right. The delay and the display of the usual screenshot-taken message are both adjustable in the configuration, so a player can keep the message out of the shot or show it as F2 would. The license is All rights reserved, and the code is not open source, though public links to the source and issue tracker exist. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the latest build covering 26.3 and Collective required as a dependency.

The wait before the capture can be set from 0 to 100 ticks, with 20 ticks as the default.
Optional taken message
The standard screenshot-taken message can be shown after an advancement capture, but it is off by default.

Use cases
Recording a world's history
A player who wants a visual log of milestones in a survival world gets one image per advancement without interrupting play.
Multiplayer play
Because only the client runs the mod, a player can use it on any server without the server owner installing anything.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who want a record of their progress, including those who play on servers that do not run mods.

Advancement Progress is a Fabric mod for client and server, released under All rights reserved for 1.20.1 – 26.2, so both sides need it. Advancement Disable is server-side only and open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.
