FabricClient-side onlyGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.18 – 1.21

What it does

The mod is a screenshot tool for the client, so only a player's own game needs it, and servers run without it. It requires DeftuLib, Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin, and Mod Menu is optional. Builds exist for Fabric only, across 11 release versions 1.18 – 1.21, with 1.4.5+1.21-fabric as the latest file. The code is under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so it is open source.

Key features

  1. Advanced screenshot handling

    The mod offers a set of screenshot options beyond the vanilla key, which its author describes as advanced.

  2. Successor to Shotify

    Screencapper is presented as a continuation of the Shotify mod, which its author describes as no longer updated.

  3. Ongoing updates

    The author states the mod will keep receiving updates, with the latest file released for 1.21 on 2024-06-13.

What the author says

The original Shotify mod has also been effectively abandoned indefinitely, so it will not be updated to 1.19 and newer versions. This mod will be updated for the forseeable future.
