About this Mod
Flashback Recording Indicator
A tiny client-side HUD overlay that tells you whether Flashback is actively recording or paused.
What it does
When Flashback has a recorder active, a small status badge appears in the top-left corner of your screen:
- 🔴 Red dot + REC - Flashback is recording
- 🟡 Amber dot + PAUSED - Flashback is paused
If no recorder is active, nothing is shown.
Why
Flashback doesn't have a built-in recording indicator. If you lose track of whether you've paused or are still capturing, you can end up with missing footage or a recording you forgot to stop. This mod makes the state visible at a glance.
Details
- Client-side only, does not need to be installed on the server
- HUD element is rendered after the boss bar layer
- Semi-transparent background for readability against any scene
- Zero config, install and forget
