EtherCinematic

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
