DeathShot
DeathShot takes a screenshot at the moment a player dies, so the death point can be looked at later.
What it does
When the player dies, the client captures the screen at that moment. The mod was created after a Redditor asked the FabricMC subreddit for a mod that does this, and a later post on r/minecraft showed a build made with it. It runs on the client alone, so players install it and servers do not need it. Builds cover 1.16.5 – 1.19.3 on Fabric, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source.
Key features
Death screenshots
A screenshot is saved automatically at the moment of death, without any key press.
Coordinate capture
The death location is recorded alongside the image, so players can look up where a death happened.
Client-side operation
Only the player's client runs the mod, and a server does not need it installed.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.

What the author says
This mod takes a screenshot when you die. Pretty simple, right? This mod was originally created for a Redditor that (I think) asked on the FabricMC Subreddit if someone could make this mod for him - so I did.
