FabricForgeClient and serverGNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 onlyOpen source1.16.5 – 1.20.1

What it does

The mod lets a player change the server tickrate, the client tickrate, or both at once, and it keeps the tickrate synchronized between the server and its connected clients. The author states that the project is unofficial and not affiliated with the original creators.

Required dependencies are Architectury API, Cloth Config API and Fabric API. The mod is published for Fabric and Forge, covering 1.16.5 – 1.20.1 across four release versions, and the latest files are 1.0.0-fabric and 1.0.0-forge for 1.20.1, both released on 2025-11-27. It is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, and the source code and issue tracker are public.

Because the environment is client and server, both the server and every player must run the mod, with the same version on each side. The mod was first published on 2024-09-15 and last updated on 2025-11-27.

Key features

  1. Tickrate adjustment while playing

    The speed at which the world simulates can be changed while the game is running, without restarting it.

  2. Separate client value

    An individual player's client tickrate can be set apart from the server value.

  3. Synchronized clients

    The chosen tickrate is passed on to the clients connected to the server, so they run the same simulation speed.

What the author says

This mod is heavily inspired by the 1.12.2 mod Tickrate Changer by Guichaguri I am not affiliated with him; I just like his awesome mod, so I ported it to newer versions.
