No Build Limit

by Jodek

No Build Limit raises the build height of a world, so players can place blocks above and below the default vanilla range, from Y -64 up to Y 2032.

What it does

The mod lifts the vertical build limit of a Minecraft world to Y 2032, with the lower bound kept at Y -64. Blocks can be placed across the full extended range once the mod or its data pack is in place, and the change applies to the world the server runs.

Installation is handled on the server side. Server owners add the mod to the server, or install the data pack version into the world's datapacks folder, and players connect without installing anything. Only the server has to run it, while a client may run it too for no extra effect. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, for game versions 1.20.5 – 26.3.

No Build Limit is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code and issue tracker public. It depends on 5555ff-lib and Sleep Anytime You Want as optional add-ons, and neither is needed for the build height change itself. The latest file is v3.1.1+mod for 26.3, published 2026-10-03.

Key features

  1. Extended build height

    Blocks can be placed from Y -64 up to Y 2032, well beyond the default vanilla height limit.

  2. Data pack option

    A data pack version can be placed in the world's datapacks folder, so a server does not need the mod jar.

  3. Recreate for seed terrain

    Generation options and the seed of a world can be reused when the world is recreated with the new height limit.

  4. Backup before changes

    Creating a backup of the world before the change is recommended if a world was already corrupted by the limit.

Questions

Does No Build Limit need to be installed on the client?

No. The server needs the mod, and players can join without it, so a client may run it but is not required to.

What happens to a world that was already corrupted?

The mod's steps say to create a backup, recreate the world with the same seed and terrain generation options, and remove the Build Limit datapack or mod before rejoining.

Which loaders have files for No Build Limit?

Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the latest file v3.1.1+mod for 26.3 is published for each of them.
