PeterWolf's Replay Orbit Camera
by peterwolfpl
PeterWolf's Replay Orbit Camera adds a compact camera mode to the Replay Mod, so a replay player can circle a subject on a fixed path.
What it does
Players select a replay player, then set the circle's diameter, height, speed and angle. The camera's position in the circle is tied to replay time, which means jumping to any timestamp reproduces the same frame of the shot. The mod generates the rest of the ReplayMod orbit path on its own, pairing each position with a time keyframe.
An optional playback-time mode, a fixed-height option, smoothing and keyboard controls are included. It works alongside the Fabric addon for the Replay Mod.
The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Fabric only, for 26.2, and the code is under the Apache License 2.0, which is not open source. The latest file is 1.0.3+26.2, released 2026-07-21.
Key features

Deterministic shots
