WebcamMod-Forward-port-byAk4ai
by Ak4ai
WebcamMod-Forward-port-byAk4ai shows a player's webcam feed in the game, displayed over the player's face in real time, for Fabric on 1.21.8 – 1.21.11.
What it does
The mod captures a webcam feed and draws it onto the player's face while the game runs. The feed updates in real time, and a webcam device is picked with the command webcam-settings. Ak4ai carried the original WebcamMod by Lichcodes over to Minecraft 1.21.8, and this version runs on Fabric Loader and continues on from 1.21.8 onward.
Installation needs the mod on both the client and the server for multiplayer, and it works on LAN and online servers. The mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v2.0 or later, with source code and an issue tracker published on GitHub under ak4ai. Files exist for 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, with 1.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file, first published on 2026-02-16.
