by Feli

What it does

Vivecraft Theater Mode adds a Theater play mode to Vivecraft, recreating the large front-facing screen used in the GearVR editions of Vivecraft. Instead of floating menus in the standard VR layout, the game is rendered on a panel placed closer and centered, which keeps the view comfortable for seated play. The mode is the Java Edition counterpart of the Theater view found in Bedrock VR.

Normal gameplay and menu interaction stay in place, and the chosen mode persists across restarts. The mod requires Vivecraft and is published for Fabric only, in version 1.21.5. Controlify is optional and enables controller navigation of the Theater menus; other controller mods are also expected to work, though Controlify is the one that has been tested.

Key features

  1. Front-facing theater screen

    The game renders on a large panel placed in front of the player, giving a flat cinema-style picture.

  2. Centered seated view

    The camera stays centered on the panel, so the view remains steady during seated sessions.

  3. Preserved menu flow

    Vivecraft's normal menu interaction stays in place, and the Theater mode works alongside it.

  4. Controller-friendly menus

    The Theater menus can be navigated with a controller, tested with Controlify.

How it compares

Full comparison

CC: VR is a Fabric and NeoForge mod covering 1.21.1, released under the MIT License, and it must run on both the client and the server. VR Combat is a Fabric mod for 1.18.2 – 1.20.1 under the MIT License, and only the client needs it, so it does not match this mod's version. MC VR API covers 1.16.5 – 1.21.8 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and either side can run it, and neither needs it.

What the author says

This mod is made for players who want Vivecraft to feel more like a flat, front-facing cinema screen while still keeping VR support and Vivecraft's normal menu flow. This mod is tested with Controlify, so you can navigate Theater menus with a controller—not just mouse and keyboard.
