About this Mod
Ghost Replay
Inspired by Ezio's spectral memories in Assassin's Creed.
When you die, the mod records your last 10 seconds, position, head, pose,
equipment, swings, hurt flashes. After respawn, when you return near the death
spot, a ghost wearing your own skin manifests at that
location and re-enacts your final moments. Plays three times, then fades.
Features
- Captures last 10 seconds of your previous life up till moment of death.
- Renders a ghost with your real skin (slim/wide auto)
- Ghost that glows bright and has a blue outline
- Eerie messages
- Armor, held items, and capes rendered
- Lazy spawn: ghost appears only when you return within 32 blocks of death
- Persists across server restarts (one pending ghost per player)
- Visible only to you, other players never see your ghost
- Configurable record window, loop count, spawn radius, alpha

Feedback
Let me know via Discord if you have any feedback!
If you really like the mod and would like to donate, it would be greatly appreciated!
I prefer making mods that actually bring something new to the table rather than reskins of existing content in game, if that's up your alley, any donation would motivate me greatly to make more innovative mods/improve existing mods! If you aren't comfortable donating/can't afford to do so(which is completely fine), sharing and letting others know of the mods will help greatly as well! Cheers!

Server lagging with Ghost Replay – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Ghost Replay consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
