BBS Together

by ChillinWithDylan

BBS Together is a Fabric and Forge add-on for multiplayer use of the BBS film mod, letting several players work on one Film Replay at the same time.

FabricForgeClient or server, optionalMIT License1.20.1 – 1.20.4

What it does

Each player gets a color through the Primary Color Settings panel, and that color marks their cursor and selections for the others. Player icons show where each participant is inside the Film Replay, and selection highlights show which parts of the scene another player has picked. A record selector lets players record actors at the same time.

The mod is built to run alongside a multiplayer-compatible fork of BBS and fixes packet desync problems without removing existing features. Asset syncing sends project assets from the server to clients, and a toggle lets server owners decide what is sent. Known incompatibilities are listed by the author.

It works with Sinytra Connector and is published for 1.20.1 and 1.20.4, with the latest files for 1.20.4 on Fabric and Forge. Either side can run it, and neither needs it. The code is under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Per-player colors

    The Primary Color Settings panel assigns each participant a color used for their cursor and selections.

  2. Shared cursors

    Colored mouse cursors show where other players' mouse pointers are on the Film Replay screen.

  3. Player location icons

    Icons display the Film Replay locations of each player, so the group can see who is working where.

  4. Asset syncing controls

    Assets can be synced between server and clients, and a toggle lets owners enable or disable which assets are sent.

Questions

Does BBS Together need a specific BBS version?

It is meant to work with a multiplayer-compatible BBS fork rather than only the original BBS mod, and the author lists known incompatibilities.

Does a server owner need to install it for the sync features?

Either side can run the mod alone, and neither needs it, so the sync options work when the server runs it.

Which game versions does BBS Together support?

Files are published for 1.20.1 and 1.20.4, and the author lists two release versions in that range.
