Cinematic Cataclysm

by FINDERFEED

Cinematic Cataclysm plays intro cutscenes when players first meet certain L_Ender's Cataclysm bosses, including Maledictus, Scylla, Leviathan, Ancient Remnant and Ignis.

What it does

Each supported boss gets its own cutscene, triggered for nearby players when a boss encounter begins. During a cutscene the player is invulnerable and cannot be targeted, and the cutscene only plays for players who were teleported into the fight, not for players who are already in survival mode nearby. The cutscenes depend on internal Cataclysm code, so when Cataclysm changes, the cutscenes can break.

Desynchronization between server and client can cause cutscenes to run incorrectly, so both sides need the same versions. The mod uses EntityCulling and adds a whitelist for entity tick culling. Cutscenes work well only with Cataclysm structures; structures from other mods will not trigger them unless the mod is designed with cutscenes in mind. Modpack makers can use the cutscene identifiers to include them in their packs.

Cinematic Cataclysm is published for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 under All rights reserved. It is not open source, but public links to the source code and issue tracker exist. It needs FDLib and L_Ender's Cataclysm, and runs on client and server.

Key features

  1. Boss intro cutscenes

    Each supported boss opens with its own cinematic sequence when a player encounters it.

  2. Player protection during cutscenes

    Players are made invulnerable and untargetable while a cutscene plays, so the sequence cannot be interrupted by combat.

  3. Cutscene identifiers

    Each boss cutscene has an identifier, such as cinematiccataclysm:scylla, that modpack makers can reference.

  4. Entity culling whitelist

    Entity tick culling from EntityCulling is adjusted with a whitelist so the cutscene entities keep ticking.
