FAQ
Clear answers, clear boundaries
The FAQ avoids compatibility promises that are not verified in the current release. If you are preparing an install, check the Flashback page and download requirements as well.
No. Orbit is one of fourteen shot generators. CineWolf also plans tracking, flyby, dolly, reveal, crane, spiral, close-detail, vehicle-profile, and montage workflows.
No. Replay analysis and montage planning run locally using deterministic rules; CineWolf does not require an AI service or API.
No. CineWolf processes the replay locally on your client. It does not require an account, cloud processing, replay upload, or an external server for local functionality.
Yes. CineWolf 1.3.11 supports Flashback 0.41.1 exactly.
CineWolf 2.0 focuses exclusively on Flashback.
The tested baseline is Minecraft 26.2, Fabric Loader >=0.19.3, Fabric API 0.153.0+26.2, and Flashback 0.41.1.
Yes. CineWolf generates native Camera, FOV, and replay-time keyframes that remain editable in the Flashback replay editor.
With obstacle handling set to Avoid, CineWolf checks the locally loaded replay world and can try height adjustment, lateral translation, radius reduction, path shortening, and added control points. It shows a warning when no safe bounded correction is found.
Yes. The built-in TikTok and YouTube Short presets use 9:16 composition metadata and a safe-area guide. CineWolf does not crop, render, encode, or upload video.
CineWolf includes vehicle-aware framing and soft profile logic for vehicle-like entities. Named train and aircraft integrations are planned optional profiles, not current runtime dependencies.
No. CineWolf does not upload replay data and does not require cloud processing or telemetry for local functionality.
Yes. CineWolf supports validated local user-preset import and export. Built-in presets are protected, and invalid imported files are isolated instead of overwriting them.
CineWolf checks the affected timeline interval before writing. Cancel is the safe default; Add preserves existing keys, while Replace is constrained to the confirmed interval.
Yes. A confirmed montage is written as one guarded logical operation. CineWolf can undo it while the expected editor state has not been changed by another timeline action.
CineWolf has group and structure framing models, but first-class group and structure selection controls are shown on the roadmap rather than presented as a completed editor workflow.
