I am a Plugin Investor and I will invest some real cash into development of plugins used for my own server, some plugins will be free to use while others will not be and will require help from the general public to maintain a bug free plugin.

You can support my work by donating if you want to, it helps me and any developer I pick to business with.

Disclaimer: I have got permission from @CosmoConsole to release this plugin as a free resource, I will kindly continue support for it but I will take my time with it, Don't message me to fix any bugs at this moment since I am busy configuring other plugins for my server, when the time comes I will continue this plugin for all to use for free.

This plugin is under my account just so I don't forget about it and I can always update it, if I mess with the code to either fix a bug or improve it.

I am still learning Java/ spigot so this may take some time to do.

The smooooooothest Camera Studio - like waypoint and path system in town!

ServerCinematics is an attempt to replicate the Camera Studio Mod server-side, so that its users would not have to install the mod into their clients, or to evade the delays of mod updates when a new Minecraft version comes out.

When you download you abide to the following

1. Taking parts of code - but not most of it - is allowed, but recreating the plugin based on existing code or modification is not allowed - especially if publicly released - especially if publicly sold.
   
2. The plugin can be only used on a single network/server per purchase.
3. Sharing the plugin JAR to other network/server is strictly forbidden.
4. Re-uploading to a different site is forbidden.

ServerCinematics has a system to create paths using waypoints. Such paths can then be played back using a configurable speed, which can be dynamically controlled by both the player and any of the waypoints. The player is moved smoothly with velocity, so that the freedom of turning around still stands, except if you enable tpmode.

View: API description →

List of all features:

• Add waypoints and make a path
• Insert waypoints in middle of the path
• Remove any waypoint
• Turns between points are smooth
• Players are moved with velocity, not with teleportation, so it is possible to turn freely (when not in tpmode)
• Path calculated with Catmull-Rom spline (smooth playback)
• List all waypoints, or teleport to one
• Waypoints can change the playing speed dynamically
• Paths can be saved/loaded
• Every player has their own path, which can be shared with either save/load or by cloning from another player
• Pause and resume playing at any time
• Force another player to play a path or stop at any time
• Use tpmode which is less smooth but supports yaw/pitch
• Add messages to waypoints
• Add commands to waypoints
• Create playlists to play and loop over a specified list of paths
• Stop the player temporarily at specific waypoints with delays
• Configure immediate teleportation between two waypoints

Issues:

- I will be going through this post to see what users of the plugin has said and what needs to be fixed.

- Plugin will eventually be renamed as TheElitePandaCS

Additional Information:

- the latest version is what I took off CosmoConsole latest development version 1.16, this version should support all versions going from 1.8+

I will no longer be supporting any version below 1.16 unless I am working on a project with friends using 1.8 - 1.12 features.

- feel free to fork the plugin or help me update/ maintain it please DM my discord on this matter as I am always looking for a developer to help me with Plugin development. DTM Panda#4159
