MinePresence
by trionic2
MinePresence is a Fabric client mod that keeps Minecraft in a borderless window so screen capture and streaming continue to work while the game runs.
What it does
The mod addresses a capture problem: when Windows treats the game as exclusive fullscreen, desktop capture and Discord screen sharing can freeze or stop. MinePresence keeps the game in a composited borderless window instead, so the capture path stays live and the stream stays smooth while the game still feels fullscreen. It works on the OS window only and does not patch the renderer, shaders or server code.
Setup is a client-side install with Fabric API required and Mod Menu optional for the settings screen. Only the client needs the mod, and players on a server do not have to install it. Files are published for Fabric 26.2 only, with 0.3.0 as the latest file released on 2026-07-09, under the MIT License and open source.
Key features
Borderless window instead of exclusive fullscreen
The game is forced into an undecorated borderless window, which keeps the desktop compositor involved and avoids the exclusive mode that blocks capture.
Configurable capture-safe inset
A safe inset of 1 pixel by default keeps the window from matching the monitor edge to edge, which Windows needs for stable compositing.
Focus re-checks and clean mouse release
The window is re-checked on focus changes at a configurable interval and the mouse is released cleanly on focus loss, so alt-tab and clicking out work smoothly.
Optional frame cap
A frame-pacing cap is available for a steady, capture-friendly frame cadence. It is off by default, leaving the frame rate unlimited.
Coexist Mode
The mod detects other borderless or fullscreen tools, and Coexist Mode lets them handle the conversion while MinePresence only enforces the capture-safe inset, so the two do not fight over the window.
