Replay To Flashback Converter
by Byzantonia
Replay To Flashback Converter moves Replay Mod recordings into Flashback instances on Minecraft 1.21.1.
What it does
The converter takes a replay file recorded with the Replay Mod and writes a -flashback.zip file that Flashback can open as a Flashback folder instance. Conversion is started from Flashback's Select Replay screen, where a Convert button sits beside the built-in replay controls and opens a Windows file chooser for picking the file. After confirming, the mod produces the converted instance beside the original recording.
Players who want to keep older recordings can copy the .bobby folder from the root Minecraft instance where the replay was first recorded into the root Minecraft 1.21.1 instance, so the converted files sit with the rest of the library. The mod also states that other versions are supported and applies a few stability fixes for running converted Flashback files, which is recommended for keeping the installation working. The project is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, with its source code published.
