Better Screenshots
by KrafterMC
Better Screenshots is a Fabric client mod that changes how screenshots are taken and reported in the game, for players who want fewer interruptions while capturing images.
What it does
The mod targets the screenshot workflow on the client: it suppresses the on-screen message that normally appears after a capture, and it adjusts several screenshot annoyances the author describes. Its controls can be adjusted through Mod Menu, which the author recommends installing alongside it. Because it runs only on the client, a server does not need it and players can join without installing anything. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.11, with file 3 as the latest release from 2026-03-03.

Screenshot fixes
Several small behaviors the author found annoying in the screenshot process are addressed by the mod.

ScreenshotFolder is client-side, open source under the MIT License and covers 1.21.4 – 1.21.11 on Fabric. Very Large Screenshots targets Fabric for 1.21.10 – 1.21.11 and is not open source.
