Selective Vanish
Server-side add-on for VanishMod that adds selective visibility control.
About this Mod
🦝 About 🦝
SVanish is a simple server-side add-on for VanishMod. It introduces selective visibility control, allowing you to choose exactly who can see vanished players.
‼️ Server-side only:
SVanish only needs to be installed on the server. Clients are not required to install it.
✨ Features ✨
The original VanishMod includes a similar feature, but it relies on Minecraft’s /team system and it is disabled by default.
SVanish uses its own server-side SavedData system. This allows you to manage visibility permissions independently, without interfering with your server’s teams or whatever.
- Independent System: No
/teamconfiguration required. - Persistent Storage: Data is saved directly in the server’s world.
- Bulk Management: Manage multiple players at once using the group syntax from RaccoonCore.
Perfect for SMP and RP-focused servers!
🔗 Compatibility 🔗
- Requires VanishMod
- Requires RaccoonCore
- Designed for Forge (I didn't learn NeoForge yet)
- Should work fine with any other mods! But if it doesn't, please let me know by opening an issue here or on GitHub!

Selective Vanish server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with Selective Vanish – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Selective Vanish consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
