MCCams
MCCams lets in-game camera views be streamed live to a web dashboard, and cameras are placed and managed through commands rather than menus.
What it does
A camera is placed in the world and registered with commands, then streaming is started with a stream start command. Viewers open the web dashboard in a browser to see the live feeds of each camera. Several cameras can exist in one world, so a single server can run a set of feeds at once.
Access to the feeds is controlled by a share-code system, which limits who can view a stream. The mod is built with multiplayer in mind, and servers that expose the dashboard need proper network configuration first. Settings cover target streaming frame rate, frame compression quality, maximum frame width and automatic streaming.
MCCams needs an external web dashboard to view camera feeds. It is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.4, with Forge 49.2.4 and Java 17, and the latest file is 0.1.0 for 1.20.4, published on 2026-05-02. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.
