Madgique's Tickrate Changer
by Madgique
With Madgique's Tickrate Changer, server owners and players can adjust the tick rate of a running game, on the server, on the client, or on both.
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
Tickrate adjustment while playing
The speed at which the world simulates can be changed while the game is running, without restarting it.
Separate client value
An individual player's client tickrate can be set apart from the server value.
Synchronized clients
The chosen tickrate is passed on to the clients connected to the server, so they run the same simulation speed.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners who run multiplayer games and players who want to control the simulation speed of their own world. Because the mod changes game timing, it suits testing and specific play styles more than standard survival.
How it compares
Dimension Changer is a Fabric, Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 that is also client and server, but it is not open source and is released under the MIT License. Viewmodel Changer is client-side only, works on Fabric for 1.20.1 – 26.3, and is open source under the MIT License, so it does not affect the server. Name Changer is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1.

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.
