What Is It?

ImmersiveCinematics lets you add cinematic cutscenes to your modpack — no command blocks, no redstone, no compromise. Write a JSON script or use the built-in timeline editor, and the server-side trigger system plays them automatically when conditions are met.

Features

Cutscene System

6-DOF Camera — position, yaw, pitch, roll, FOV, zoom
Keyframe Animation + Bezier curves with arc-length parametrization for butter-smooth motion
Multi-track timeline — Camera, Letterbox, Audio, Event, Mod Event
Relative / absolute positioning, looping, infinite duration
Widescreen letterbox bars (2.35:1) with fade in/out
Morph transitions between shots

Trigger System (Server-Side)

14 trigger types — scripts fire automatically when conditions are met:

login · location (point+radius / cuboid) · advancement · biome · dimension_change · entity_kill · interact · item_craft · item_use · inventory · structure · gamestage · custom · command

OR/AND logic and wildcard matching
Single-fire or repeatable, with configurable delay
Per-player state persistence (SNBT)

Runtime Control

Script queuing & preemption
Multiplayer — full script tracking, completion sync, skip voting
