Cinewolf Autodirector
by peterwolfpl
Cinewolf Autodirector, a Fabric extension for Flashback, generates cinematic camera movements automatically from replay activity and lets an editor adjust the resulting keyframes.
What it does
The extension works with CineWolf AutoDirector and Flashback. It reads a replay locally and builds camera shots from its analysis, so identical inputs always produce the same output. Montage generation runs entirely on the client, and no AI service, cloud API or external server is used. Flashback is a required dependency, and Fabric API 0.153.0+26.2 is also needed.
The shade bundle can be copied and modified, and the mod has its own event mini-timeline inside the CineWolf panel. It also places markers on Flashback's native timeline without changing the native replay markers. Files target Minecraft Java Edition 26.2 with Java 25 and Fabric Loader 0.19.3, and are published for 26.2 and 26.3, with 2.0.33 for 26.3 as the latest file. The mod is released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 and is open source.
Key features
Automatic shot generation
Single shots and multi-shot montages are produced from replay analysis, with duration, aspect ratio, pacing and framing settings.
Entity targeting
Targets use stable UUID-based identifiers, and the selection can follow a crosshair or a spectated entity in Flashback.
Montage presets
Seven data-driven presets provide editable proposed shots, and users can import and export their own montage presets.
Path smoothing
A shared zero-phase smoothing pass adjusts position and rotation strength, rejects isolated jumps and caps sustained Flyby motion.
