Mineshotter
by FanyaOff
Mineshotter gives Fabric players a screenshot editor that opens a clean capture area, letting them crop, draw and copy the result before it leaves the game.
What it does
Players select an area of the screen, then adjust it in a move mode that drags or resizes the selection. A draw mode puts lines inside the selected area using a color palette, so annotations stay within the crop. Once the image is ready, a copy button sends the final picture to the clipboard, and the same selection can be uploaded to get a link.
The mod runs only on the client, so a server does not need it and players can join a server without installing anything. Its code is open source under the MIT License. Cloth Config API is required, and the mod is published for Fabric only, with files across 11 release versions, 1.21 – 1.21.11.
Its setup can use the default kappa.lol upload option or a custom selecting option entered through another API, as the author describes for testing.
Key features
Area selection
A selection tool marks the part of the screen to keep, so the capture stays clean and limited to that region.
Move and resize
A move mode shifts or resizes the selected area before the screenshot is finalized.
Optional line drawing
Draw mode adds lines inside the selected area, with a color palette for choosing each stroke.
Clipboard copy
A copy button places the finished image on the clipboard for pasting into other programs.

Use cases
Cropped captures
Players who want only part of the game view in a screenshot can select that area before saving or copying.
Quick annotations
Lines drawn inside the selection can mark a detail in a build or a bug before the image is shared.
Who it’s for: Players who take screenshots of builds, bugs or gameplay and want to trim or mark them before sharing. Because it runs on the client alone, it suits single-player and multiplayer players alike.
How it compares
SnapHelper is a Fabric client mod for 1.21.11 under the MIT License, so it covers only that single version. Screenshot Path is also client-side and open source under the MIT License, but its files cover 1.21.6 – 26.2. xyz-copier is client-side only under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and targets 1.21.8 – 1.21.10, which is narrower than the range of Mineshotter.
