Gamemode Unrestrictor
by haykam
Gamemode Unrestrictor lets players open a gamemode switcher and change their game mode even when they lack the required permission level.
What it does
Gamemode Unrestrictor is a Fabric utility, first published on 2021-06-09 and last updated on 2024-11-26. Once installed in the mods folder, it gives access to a quick gamemode toggle without the usual permission check. Players can use it where the gamemode command is restricted by their role, for example on a server that limits who may change modes. The mod runs on Fabric alone and needs no other mod. Only the client needs it, so players can join a server without installing it there. Builds cover 1.16.2 – 1.21.4, with 1.0.2 for 1.21.4 as the latest file, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source.
Key features
Quick gamemode toggle
A toggle in the gamemode switcher changes the current game mode without typing a command.
Bypasses permission checks
The switch works even when the player's permission level would normally block the gamemode command.
Gamemode command access
Players gain access to the gamemode command in situations where their role would otherwise not allow it.
