Last Breathes
by CoreStudio
Last Breathes is a Fabric client mod that records the last moments of gameplay and saves a video when the player dies.
What it does
The mod keeps a rolling buffer of the final seconds of play in memory, without writing it to disk until a save is requested. Once the player dies, a save option is offered on the death screen, and choosing it exports those seconds as a video file. The clip covers the last 10 seconds by default, and the length, resolution, scale and frame rate can be changed in the settings.
Installation needs Cloth Config API for its settings and Mod Menu for opening them. Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players can use it in single-player and on multiplayer servers alike. It is published for Fabric only, with 12 release versions and 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file, under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
Key features
Automatic recording
Gameplay is buffered continuously so that the final moments are already captured when the player dies.
Death screen export
The death screen gets a save option that writes the final seconds to a video file at once.
Low-impact buffering
Frames are handled with multi-threaded ring buffers and OpenGL pixel buffer objects to limit the effect on frame rate.
Configurable output
Clip length, resolution, scale and frame rate can be adjusted, with Mod Menu providing the settings screen.

Use cases
Capturing a death on a server
A player on a multiplayer server can export a clip of the last seconds before a death without any server-side install.
Recording a single-player death
A single-player player can keep a short clip of a fatal fight or fall and export it from the death screen.
Who it’s for: Players who want video of their final moments in Minecraft on Fabric, and who are willing to install Cloth Config API and Mod Menu alongside it.
