LAN Server Options

by 0ax5-ha

LAN Server Options lets the host of an integrated server set extra options before opening a world to other players on the local network.

What it does

The mod places an Advanced options screen inside the LAN publishing flow that Minecraft already provides. From it the host can switch online-mode on or off, toggle the whitelist flags and PvP, change the MOTD shown to joining players, cap the player count between 1 and 100, and set an idle timeout from 0 to 1440 minutes.

Joining players run vanilla Minecraft and gain nothing from the mod, so the installation is needed only on the machine that hosts. The mod is client and server in its environment, but a host can run it alone. Files are published for Fabric only, currently 1.0.1 for 26.2, built against Fabric Loader 0.19.3 or newer. The code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal and is open source, with public links to the source and an issue tracker.

Disabling online-mode turns off account verification, so other players can impersonate usernames. The author advises using the mod only on trusted networks.

Key features

  1. Advanced LAN options screen

    An extra screen opens before a LAN world is published, collecting the integrated-server settings in one place.

  2. Online-mode and whitelist toggles

    The host can enable or disable online-mode and the whitelist flags before the world opens to the network.

  3. PvP toggle

    Player-versus-player combat can be switched on or off for the LAN session from the same screen.

  4. MOTD, player cap and idle timeout

    The server message, a player cap of 1 to 100, and an idle timeout of 0 to 1440 minutes are all adjustable.

Use cases

Friends on a home network

A host who opens a world to friends on the same network can cap the player count and set a server message before others join.

Private sessions

Turning off PvP and tightening the whitelist flags keeps a LAN session limited to the people the host chooses.

Who it’s for: Players who host an integrated server for others on a local network, running Minecraft Java 26.2 with Fabric. Joining players need no installation.

Questions

Which Minecraft and Fabric versions does it support?

The mod is published for 26.2 only. The latest Fabric file is 1.0.1, built against Fabric Loader 0.19.3 or newer.

Does disabling online-mode affect security?

Yes. Disabling online-mode turns off account verification, so other players can impersonate usernames, and the mod should be used only on trusted networks.
