About this Mod
ClientTime Mod 🌤
Client-side mod for Minecraft 26.1.2 (Fabric)
Changes the sky visually on your client without affecting server gameplay.
Works on any server - you see your sky, the server sees its own.
Note: This command only works on dedicated servers (not in single-player), since it's designed for server-side time customization.

Build
Requirements:
- Java 25+
- Gradle 9.4+ (or use
./gradlew)
cd clienttime-mod
./gradlew build
The JAR will be in build/libs/clienttimemod-1.0.0.jar.
Place it in your mods folder and launch Fabric for 26.1.2.
How it works
The mod intercepts ClientClockManager.getTotalTicks() on the client via a Mixin.
Since Minecraft 26.1+ ships without obfuscation, the mixin uses Mojang's original class names directly.
The mod is client-side ("environment": "client" in fabric.mod.json) - it does not load on the server, does not require server-side installation, and does not affect gameplay.

ClientTime server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is ClientTime compatible with fabric?
ClientTime officially supports fabric for Minecraft 26.1.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with ClientTime – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if ClientTime consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
