Flashback Actors

by PDX

Flashback Actors adds a way to record other entities inside Flashback replays, so that they act again in later takes of the same footage.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License1.21 – 26.3

What it does

Flashback Actors is a Fabric addon for Flashback, the replay and filming mod, and it cannot run without Flashback installed. Recorded actors are players displayed in a replay with nametags and skins, and they can be reused in the next take of a scene. Other entities can be shown in the replay as well, and a mob morphing option lets an actor appear as a mob. Color grading options give replays a different look.

The mod is client-side only, so only the player who records or watches the replay needs it, and servers run without it. It is published for Fabric across 15 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3, with 0.10.1 for 26.3 as the latest file. The code is MIT licensed, though the project is not open source in the sense of a full public repository. Flashback Actors is an unofficial addon and is not affiliated with Moulberry, the author of Flashback.

The author notes say the addon receives regular updates for new versions and includes bug fixes and patches. Its development is tied to the release cycle of the replay tool it extends, so new game versions usually arrive after the matching build.

Key features

  1. Recorded actors

    Actors recorded inside a Flashback replay can act again in the next take, so a scene can be shot with repeated characters.

  2. Actors as players

    A recorded actor is shown as a player with a nametag and skin, which keeps the footage consistent across takes.

  3. Mob morphing

    An actor can be turned into a mob, giving replays characters that were not present during the original recording.

  4. Color grading

    Color grading settings change the look of a replay, so one recording can be given different tones and moods.

What the author says

This Addon For Moulberry's "Flashback" Allows you to record "Actors". Actors are essentially recorded players that can be displayed in Flashback as normal players with nametags and skins. Great for filming Minecraft cinematics, machinima and replay videos by yourself.
