minecraft_imagery

minecraft_imagery is a toolkit for capturing pictures and videos from inside Minecraft. It gives a server programmatic control over cameras — positioning, framing and movement — so you can produce clean, cinematic shots instead of fiddling with the in-game camera by hand.

It grew out of needing good-looking promotional material for server projects, and turned into a reusable tool.

How it works

A Spigot/Paper plugin exposes camera control and capture to other plugins and to operators, handling the framing and the export so the rest of your code only has to say what to shoot.
