AFK Camera

# AFK Camera  ## Overview AFK Camera is a Minecraft mod that automatically activates cinematic camera movements when you're idle. After a configurable period of inactivity (default 30 seconds), the mod seamlessly transitions your camera into a free-cam mode and begins playing smooth, pre-defined camera animations around your world. ## Features - **Automatic AFK Detection**: Monitors player activity including movement, mouse input, key presses, and damage - **Smooth Camera Transitions**: Automatically switches to free camera mode with cinematic animations - **Configurable Timing**: Customizable AFK timeout period - **HUD Management**: Automatically hides the HUD during AFK mode - **Animation System**: Supports custom camera keyframe animations with position and rotation interpolation - **Smart Deactivation**: Instantly returns to normal gameplay when any player activity is detected - **Death Protection**: Optional setting to disable AFK mode when player dies ## How It Works The mod continuously monitors for player activity including: - Movement keys (WASD, jump, sneak, sprint) - Mouse movement - Action keys (attack, use, inventory) - Player taking damage - Menu interactions When no activity is detected for the configured time period, AFK Camera: 1. Enables free camera mode 2. Hides the game HUD 3. Loads and plays cinematic camera animations in a random order 4. Cycles through available animations continuously The moment any player input is detected, the mod immediately: 1. Stops the current animation 2. Restores the HUD 3. Returns camera control to the player 4. Disables free camera mode ## Block Bench Compatibility This mod is designed to work seamlessly with **Blockbench** camera animations. You can create custom camera paths and keyframe animations in Blockbench, and the mod will automatically load and play them during AFK periods. The animation system supports: - Position keyframes with smooth interpolation - Rotation keyframes (pitch and yaw) - Custom timing and duration - Automatic scaling for Minecraft world coordinates ## Custom camera animations tutorial Template [resource pack](https://github.com/playsi/AFK-camera/raw/refs/heads/1.21.5/Rp%20template%20-%20AFK%20Camera.zip).

A **Forge** version is **not planned** due to the significant architectural differences between the platforms and the mod's deep integration with Fabric-specific APIs. ## Dependencies ### Required - **[Fabric API](https://modrinth.com/mod/fabric-api)** - Core Fabric mod loader functionality - **[YACL](https://modrinth.com/mod/yacl) (Yet Another Config Library)** - Configuration management ### Optional - **[Mod Menu](https://modrinth.com/mod/modmenu)** - Provides in-game configuration interface ## Issues If you find a problem that is not listed, you can report it [here](https://github.com/playsi/AFK-camera/issues). ## Acknowledgments Big thanks to [hashalite](https://modrinth.com/user/hashalite) for creating [Freecam](https://modrinth.com/mod/freecam)!
