MapleStory Worlds is Nexon's platform for user-made worlds, and the official site sums it up as building new worlds with your own hands and playing them. Hop between worlds with friends and you will run into plenty of moments worth keeping, like surviving to the end of a minigame or the whole group getting lost on some strange map. MapleStory Worlds became a DOR full-play recording game in the October 2026 app update. When you launch the PC client, DOR detects it automatically and keeps everything until you quit as one video. This guide focuses on pulling just the scenes worth showing out of a long recording that mixes many worlds, then sending them to the people who were there.
However many worlds you visit, one session stays one video
Every world in MapleStory Worlds has its own genre and rules, but DOR does not split the recording by world. Open the client, visit five worlds, and those five worlds play back in order inside one video. That is why jotting down the world name and rough time whenever something memorable happens saves you the most time later. The main MapleStory game is a separate supported game in DOR, so footage of regular hunting or bosses is covered on the MapleStory hub. This guide is only about playing in worlds made by users.
Picking scenes out of a recording that mixes many worlds
- 1Play on the PC client so recording starts on its ownMapleStory Worlds runs on both PC and mobile, but DOR records the client running on a Windows PC. Open the client on your PC and DOR detects it and starts recording automatically, continuing as one video until you close the client.
- 2Note each world name and the timeEvery time you enter a new world, add one line to a phone note with the world name and time. After a few hours, it gets hard to remember which world something happened in, so this note works as a table of contents when you scrub the recording.
- 3Split the recording where the screen changes completelyMoving to another world swaps out the whole background and map layout. Scrub the timeline in the library and look for the spots where the look of the screen suddenly changes. That divides the recording by world, and matching it against your notes takes you straight to the one you want.
- 4Keep a few seconds after a minigame's rankings appearIf you only send the final moment of a minigame win, your friend will not know what was going on. Trim a bit of the round starting, the deciding moment, and two or three seconds after the rankings or results show up as one clip so the whole story comes across.
- 5Turn your own world into a vertical demoTo show off a world you built, choose 9:16 when trimming, then combine a few sections in DOR Studio in your browser and add the world name as text. Put the most eye-catching scene first so a first-time viewer can tell what kind of world it is within a few seconds.
- 6Send the link to the friends who played with you that dayFinished videos are shared as dor.gg links. Send the friend who was in that world a link to the scene, or send your fellow creators the demo link, and they can watch right in a browser without installing anything.
What to clip from each type of MapleStory Worlds world
| World type | What to look for in the recording | Length, ratio, and who gets it |
|---|---|---|
| Matchmaking battle and minigame worlds | From players gathering and the round starting to the rankings appearing | About 30 seconds with results, 16:9, friends who joined in |
| Single-player worlds | Stretches of puzzles or obstacles where your fails and successes pile up | 20 seconds through the success, 9:16, friends who have tried the same world |
| MapleStory original and remake worlds | Right after you enter and a familiar town or map shows up again | Under a minute, 16:9, friends you used to play MapleStory with |
| Dress-up worlds | Changing avatar outfits and showing them off to each other | 10 to 15 seconds, 1:1, the friend who picked outfits with you |
| A demo of your own world | Playing a map you built from start to finish | About 40 seconds of highlights, 9:16, friends who might play it or fellow creators |
| The whole group getting lost | Chat bubbles flooding in and characters bunched in one spot | Around 15 seconds, 16:9, the group chat of everyone who was there |

How DOR records MapleStory Worlds
DOR is a free Windows desktop app. When you launch the MapleStory Worlds client, it detects it automatically and saves everything until you quit as one mp4 video, but it does not cut out minigame wins or world entries as automatic highlights. Find the scenes yourself in the app library, set the start and end with the trim tool, and pick 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1 to get a dor.gg link. To combine scenes from several worlds into one video or add text and background music, see the DOR clip editor that runs in your browser. Tips for setting precise start and end points are in how to trim game clips. Game audio and your mic are recorded together, so your own laughter during a call with friends stays in the video too. On days you do not want MapleStory Worlds recorded, turn it off under full-play recording in settings, and a confirmation window will appear when you do.
