Fast Gamemode Switch Mod
by EnesBasmaci
Fast Gamemode Switch lets a player change the game mode from a small on-screen menu instead of typing a command, and it works with cheats turned off.
What it does
The mod adds a GUI that opens during play and lists the game modes, so a player can pick survival, creative, adventure or spectator without entering a command. Selecting a mode applies it right away. The author wrote it after a problem with switching modes in Minecraft 1.15.2, where leaving a world to change modes was the only option, and the mod was built to remove that step.
The mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players can use it alone in single-player or on a server that does not have it. It is published for Forge and NeoForge across 17 release versions, 1.12.2 – 26.2, and the latest file for each loader is 1.0 for 26.2. The code is under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Gamemode menu
A screen opened in play lists the available game modes and applies the chosen one immediately.
Works with cheats off
The mode change does not depend on cheats being enabled, so survival worlds can switch modes as well.
Menu pausing option
The menu can pause the game while it is open, and the author notes that the pause can be turned off for players who want to keep the world running.
No command typing
Switching modes does not require typing a command, which removes the need to leave the world to change modes.

Use cases
Quick switch while building
A player who needs creative flight for a short build can change to creative and back without leaving the world.
Recovering from a bad fall
After a fall into lava or a dangerous spot, a player can switch modes from the menu instead of quitting the game.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players on Forge or NeoForge who want to change game modes quickly in single-player or on a server that allows cheats. Players who use Fabric need a different mod.
