Time & Weather Changer
by alex265
Time & Weather Changer lets a player set the time of day and the weather on their own client, through a simple interface or the /ctime and /cweather commands.
What it does
Time & Weather Changer is a client-side utility for Fabric and NeoForge. Changes to time and weather apply only on the player's own game, so the server keeps its own clock and weather. The mod is open source under the BSD 2-Clause License and needs Fabric API on Fabric; Mod Menu is an optional dependency that adds its own settings access.
Files are published for 10 release versions, 1.21.6 – 26.3, with the latest builds for 26.3 dated 2026-10-15. The first release came on 2026-02-21. The source code and issue tracker are public, so the behavior of each command can be checked in the repository.
Because the mod never changes the server, a player can use it on any server without the server installing anything, and it works equally well in single-player worlds.
Key features
Change the time of day
The /ctime command sets the time shown on the player's client, so day and night can be adjusted for personal play.
Change the weather
The /cweather command switches the weather shown on the player's client without affecting other players.
Simple user interface
A small interface lets the player pick time and weather values without typing commands.
Client-only effect
Changes apply only to the local game, so the server's world and other players are not altered.

Who it’s for: Players who want to view a world at a different time or weather on their own screen, and anyone who prefers a command or menu over waiting for the day cycle.
