Nick And Kits!

by blueleaff

Nick And Kits! is a Fabric server utility that lets operators change how other players' names appear in-game and hand out item kits with one command.

FabricClient or server, optionalAll rights reserved1.21 – 1.21.11

What it does

Operators can change the display name of another player without touching the real account, so the name that others see in the world is different while the login stays the same. A nickname can be set by hand with the nick command, or the mod can pick a random one with nick use randomnick. This suits recording sessions where real usernames should stay off camera.

Kits are predefined item loadouts that an operator creates and gives out with a single command. Kits can be handed to one player or to everyone at once, so new arrivals can be geared up quickly during a session. The mod works without a menu or GUI: the kit command gives the items straight to the player's inventory. Only operators can use these commands, and regular players have no access to them.

Nick And Kits! is published for Fabric and Paper, for game versions 1.21 – 1.21.11 with 1.0.2 for 1.21.11 as the latest file. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so it can be installed on a server, a client or both. Installation is simple: place the jar in the mods folder next to Fabric Loader, then start the server, since no configuration is required.

Key features

  1. Operator-only nicknames

    Operators can change the name another player shows in the world, while the account and its login stay unchanged.

  2. Random nickname option

    A nickname can be typed by hand or generated by the mod when the random option is used.

  3. Single-command kits

    Predefined item loadouts are given out with one command, with no menus to navigate.

    A kit can be given to one player or to every player on the server in a single action.

What the author says

Ops can change what another player's name looks like in-game. Either set one yourself with /nick, or just use /randomnick and let the mod pick something random. Great for when you don't want real usernames showing up on camera. It doesn't mess with their actual account or anything, just changes the name people see in…
