About this Mod

Description

A lightweight client-side mod that lets you easily record, save, and play back your in-game actions. It works by saving your inputs every tick giving it perfect accuracy, though this causes camera movements to appear at 20fps.

All macros are saved to .minecraft/macros and are fairly easy to modify, just run them through an online JSON beautifier/formatter first.

(This folder is created automatically the first time you save a macro.)


What It Records

  • Camera rotation
  • Player movement (forward, backward, left, right)
  • Sprinting and sneaking
  • Placing and breaking blocks
  • Swinging Hand & Attacking Entities
  • Throwing items
  • Selected hotbar slot
  • Swapping main hand and offhand items

(All of the above can be toggled on and off both for recording and playback)


What It Doesn’t Record

  • GUI interactions (e.g., inventory, crafting, chests)
  • Block picking (default middle-click action)
  • Coordinates (macros do exactly what you recorded starting from wherever you are)
  • Items (will record selected hotbar slot but not the item inside)
  • Anything outside of minecraft

Commands

  • /macrorecorder record – Starts / Restarts recording a macro
  • /macrorecorder test – Play your last recording without saving

Frequently Asked Questions

MacroRecorder server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is MacroRecorder compatible with fabric?

MacroRecorder officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.11, 1.21.10, 1.21.9. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with MacroRecorder – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if MacroRecorder consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
