About Fake Creative Mode

From Modrinth

A Fabric mod that allows players to visually switch between Creative and Survival modes without affecting actual gameplay. Players can experience the Creative mode interface, including flight and the HUD, while remaining in Survival mode on the server.

Fake Creative Mode

Fake Creative Mode is a mod for Minecraft that allows players to switch their visual game mode to Creative or Survival, without actually changing the underlying game mode. This mod provides a "fake" Creative mode that allows players to see the Creative HUD (like the hotbar and flying ability) but without actually giving them the real Creative mode abilities.

Disclaimer / Warning

This mod is for educational purposes only.

Do not use this mod for any illegal or disruptive activities. This mod is designed to provide a visual effect of being in Creative mode without actually changing the server’s game mode. Using this mod in a way that disrupts other players' experience, violates server rules, or is used for cheating or exploiting in multiplayer environments is strongly discouraged and may result in consequences such as bans from servers.

By using this mod, you acknowledge that you are responsible for how it is used and understand that it should only be used in environments where it is permitted.

Features

  • Visual Gamemode Change: Switch between Creative and Survival modes visually, without changing the actual game mode.
  • Client Command: /fgamemode creative and /fgamemode survival to change your visual game mode.
  • Server Support: Server-side mod allows players to experience the visual changes when prompted by commands or other triggers.

Installation

  1. Download the latest release of the mod.
  2. Place the mod .jar file into your mods folder inside your Minecraft directory.
  3. Ensure you are using Minecraft version 1.20+ or 1.21+ with Fabric Mod Loader and the Fabric API installed.
  4. Launch the game and the mod should be ready to use.

Usage

Commands:

  • /fgamemode creative: Switch your visual game mode to Creative. This will give you the Creative HUD and abilities like flying, but without changing your real game mode.
  • /fgamemode survival: Switch your visual game mode to Survival. This will give you the Survival HUD and disable flying.

Example:

  1. Use the command /fgamemode creative to enter "fake" creative mode.
  2. You'll see the Creative inventory, the ability to fly, and other Creative mode perks, but you’ll still be in Survival mode.
