About this project
What does ScreenshotMetadata add?
Screenshot Metadata is a lightweight Fabric mod that automatically enriches your Minecraft screenshots with useful context so you can organize and find them later. Every time you press F2, the mod collects player and world information (like username, coordinates, dimension, biome, timestamp, and optional world seed) and saves it alongside the image. Metadata can be embedded directly into the PNG, written as an XMP sidecar file, or saved as JSON — so it works for both standard image viewers and advanced tools.
The goal is simple: make your screenshots more meaningful without changing how you play. Whether you are documenting builds, exploring worlds, or just saving memories, the mod helps you remember exactly where and when each screenshot was taken. Configuration is available throughMod Menu, letting you toggle which output formats you want and whether to include sensitive data like the world seed.
