FlashBatch
If you record cinematic replays in Minecraft, you already know the pain of exporting scene after scene by hand. FlashBatch is a companion mod for Flashback that removes that grind entirely. Instead of adding each scene to the render queue one at a time, it lets you queue and render every scene of the same replay in a single pass. For anyone producing montages, trailers, or time-lapses, that single change saves hours of repetitive clicking.
What FlashBatch Actually Does
FlashBatch adds a Queue All Scenes... entry to Flashback's main menu bar. Clicking it opens a batch export window styled to match Flashback's own editor UI, so it feels like a native part of the tool rather than a bolt-on. Inside that window you configure exactly how every scene should be exported, then queue them all with one click.
It is worth stressing one thing up front: nothing renders automatically. FlashBatch only queues the jobs into Flashback's own render queue, exactly as if you had clicked "Add to Queue" on every scene yourself. You stay in control of when rendering starts.
Key Features of FlashBatch for Minecraft
Custom Filename Patterns
Naming exported clips manually is tedious. FlashBatch supports Flashback's own placeholders, including %seq%, %scene%, %date%, %time%, and %replay%, and shows a live preview of the resolved name as you type. You can also set a custom starting number for %seq% whenever a project needs a specific numbering scheme.
Full Export Options, Kept Separate
The batch window exposes the same settings Flashback's own export dialog offers: resolution, framerate, projection, container, codec, encoder, bitrate, transparency, SSAA, and audio options. Crucially, these are kept independent from your saved Preferences, so a batch export never overwrites your usual defaults. You also get a custom output folder per batch with a folder picker.
Time Range and Per-Scene Selection
Every scene can export using its In/Out points, its first and last keyframe, or the full recorded footage, with automatic fallback if the chosen source is empty for a given scene. All scenes are included by default, but an optional checklist lets you exclude specific ones before queuing.
- Queue every scene of a replay in one action
- Live filename preview with Flashback placeholders
- Independent export settings that never touch your Preferences
- Per-batch output folder with a folder picker
- Flexible time range selection with automatic fallback
- Settings remembered between game sessions
Supported Versions and Loader
FlashBatch is built for the Fabric loader and requires the Fabric API alongside Flashback. It targets modern Minecraft releases in the 1.20 and 1.21 era, so check the add-on page for the exact game version that matches your instance before you download FlashBatch. Running it on a mismatched Minecraft build is the most common reason players see the menu entry fail to appear.
For players who would rather skip manual file juggling, the foxygame.net launcher handles the whole setup for FlashBatch in a single click, dropping the correct build straight into a ready-to-play Fabric profile. That approach also keeps version compatibility in check, so a game update does not silently break your batch exports.
How to Install FlashBatch
Installation follows the standard Fabric add-on routine and takes only a few minutes.
- Install the Fabric loader for your Minecraft version.
- Place the Fabric API jar in your mods folder.
- Add the Flashback mod, since FlashBatch depends on it.
- Drop the FlashBatch jar into the same mods folder.
- Launch the game and confirm the Queue All Scenes... entry appears in Flashback's menu bar.
If the entry is missing, verify that Flashback and Fabric API are both present and that all three files target the same Minecraft version. Once loaded, open a replay, click Queue All Scenes..., configure your filename pattern and export options, and let the batch window do the rest.
Who Should Use It
FlashBatch suits creators who record multi-scene replays and want consistent output without babysitting the queue. Editors working on long-form projects benefit most from the filename placeholders and the per-batch output folder, while casual users will appreciate that their normal export Preferences stay untouched. Because settings persist between sessions, a workflow only needs to be configured once.
Final Thoughts
FlashBatch solves a narrow but genuinely annoying problem: exporting many scenes from one replay. By queuing everything in a single click, offering full export control, and leaving your defaults alone, it turns a repetitive chore into a two-minute setup. If Flashback is already part of your recording pipeline, FlashBatch is the natural next step.
