About this Mod
Cobblemon Cinematic Combat
Cobblemon Cinematic Combat is an incredibly configurable battle enhancement mod built for Cobblemon 1.7+ that aims to introduce the nostalgic camera angles and sequences featuered in many of the games.
Features
A fully configurable cinematic experience, offering:
Dynamic battle cameras that emulate the scenes featured in many of the original Pokemon games.
Some custom weather events (still proof of concept) for Pokemon weather moves.
Custom "gym" dimension with dynamic plot creation and teardown.
Fully custom gym creation system, supporting the building of unique gyms, which are shareable too!
A fully configurable client and server experience, allowing players to opt into camera use, arena use and more while yielding to the permissions set by server owners.
Planned Features
Custom commissioned battle music and announcer voicelines.
More default arenas and arena skins.
A better configuration solution.
Enhanced animations.
Custom particles.
Compatibilities
This mod should theoretically work with any/all NPC/battle enhancement mods, though our testing of this was by no means exhaustive. If you notice any compatability issues, please let us know.
Expectations and Closing
This mod is in beta and unpolished. Please note the possibility of bugs and unstable performance at-scale.
We decided to release it early in anticpiation of Cobblemon's official "Stadium Block" feature, which (unfortunately for us) covers a large portion of the features this mod adds, and arguably better. As the team behind this project is now focusing on the development of a server, we've decided that we'd upload this mod early and use the time to gather community feedback and diagnose bugs so that when the stadium feature is released, we'll be able to focus on leveraging what it does better and enhancing this mod even further. If you chose to use this mod despite it's inevitable quirks--thank you :)
