What it does

Tool-assisted speedrunning tools for Minecraft are the core of TASmod. It includes input playback, so a recorded run can be replayed frame by frame. Pressing F8 switches the tickrate between zero and other values, and while the tickrate is zero, F9 steps the game forward by a single tick. Pausing works on both the client and the server side.

J writes a savestate into the saves folder under .minecraft/saves/savestates, and K loads one back. Recordings and their savestates are stored under .minecraft/saves/tasfiles/savestates. Savestates keep working during both recording and playback, and F10 aborts a playback that is running. F6 opens a HUD customization screen, where the position of elements can be changed by dragging with the left mouse button and a background can be added with the right button.

TASmod runs on both Forge and Legacy Fabric, with the latest builds for 1.12.2: Alpha-9 for Forge (2023-05-02) and Beta2.1 for Legacy Fabric (2026-02-06). It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code and issue tracker are public. The mod is open source.

Key features

  1. Input playback

    Recorded inputs can be replayed, so a run is repeated from the same starting savestate.

  2. Tick control

    F8 switches between tickrate 0 and other tickrates, and F9 steps the game forward one tick at a time.

  3. Savestates

    J saves the current state of the world, K loads it, and both work during recording and playback.

  4. Customizable HUD

    F6 opens a screen where HUD elements are moved by dragging and given a background with a right click.

Use cases

Speedrun practice

Runners can record a route, reload savestates at checkpoints and step through tricky sections one tick at a time.

Replay analysis

A recorded run can be played back and aborted at any point with F10 to compare attempts.

Who it’s for: The mod suits speedrunners and players who study routes in Minecraft 1.12.2. Because the environment is client and server, servers that allow tool-assisted runs need the mod installed as well.

Questions

Does TASmod need KillTheRNG?

KillTheRNG is an optional dependency. TASmod runs without it, and it is listed as a companion rather than a requirement.

Where are savestates and recordings stored?

Savestates go into .minecraft/saves/savestates, and recordings with their savestates go into .minecraft/saves/tasfiles/savestates.

Which loader should be chosen for TASmod on 1.12.2?

TASmod is published for Forge with Alpha-9 and for Legacy Fabric with Beta2.1, both for 1.12.2. Either loader can be used, and the choice depends on the other mods installed.

Must the server have TASmod installed too?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.
