ETHERCINEMATICS v1.1.0 Cinematic Camera Recording Plugin
DESCRIPTION
EtherCinematics is a Minecraft plugin for recording and playing back cinematics with ultra-smooth camera movement. Administrators can create cinematic paths by recording their movement in real-time, using scene cuts, and then playing them back for one or multiple players.
MAIN FEATURES
- Real-time recording with configurable duration (e.g., 30s, 2m, 5m)
- Scene cutting system using shears to pause/resume recording
- Time freezes when paused - paused time doesn't count toward recording
- Catmull-Rom interpolation for extremely smooth camera movement within scenes
- Direct cuts between scenes - instant teleport, no transitions
- Faithful playback - duration matches exactly what was recorded
- Multiplayer support - play for @a (all), @p (yourself), or specific player
- Hidden players - viewers don't see other viewers during playback
- Language system - English (en) and Spanish (es) support
- OP-only commands and actionbar messages
