Timepiece

by Pleebo

Timepiece puts working clocks into Forge 1.20.1 worlds, from classic red alarm clocks to a grandfather clock that chimes each hour.

ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

Clocks in Timepiece tell the time within Minecraft, and each model has its own behavior. Alarm clocks ring at 7am to mark the morning, a grandfather clock chimes on the hour, and a town hall clock is built around a larger structure. Wall and mantle clocks tick as they run. Some clocks only work while the sun is up, and their hands update in game as the hour changes.

The catalog lists Timepiece as a Forge mod for 1.20.1, released on 2026-04-07 and updated on the same day. Clocks and wristwatches are placed as decoration, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The license is All rights reserved, which means the mod is not open source. Timepiece has no required dependencies.

Key features

  1. Alarm and chiming clocks

    Alarm clocks ring at 7am and a grandfather clock chimes each hour, adding sound to a base.

  2. Wall, mantle and classic models

    Wall and mantle clocks tick, and a classic red clock and a retro clock give other styles to choose from.

  3. Kit Cat Clock

    A Kit Cat Clock model has an animated tail and eyes, placed as a decoration on a wall or floor.

  4. Wristwatches and gilt decorations

    Couple wristwatches and gilt decorations are included, and a hold-and-view hand action shows the wristwatch.

How it compares

Full comparison

Ingame Real Time Clock is a Forge client-side only mod for 1.20.2, under All rights reserved, so it does not work on 1.20.1 and only the client runs it. Clock HUD is a client-side only mod for 1.16.4 – 1.21.11 and is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, showing the time on screen rather than placing clocks in the world. L-Man's Cat Clocks runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.5, is client and server, and is All rights reserved, so it is the closest match in environment.

Questions

Does Timepiece need to be installed on the server?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Which loader and game version does Timepiece support?

Timepiece is published for Forge only, and the only game version listed is 1.20.1. Files exist for no other loader or version.

Can the clocks be used with a server that does not run Timepiece?

The Modrinth page does not say how clocks behave without the mod, so the answer is not known from the listed facts. Both sides are required by the environment setting.

In the catalog

Timepiece is one of 12,078 Decoration mods on ModsFinder, and one of 6,149 Decoration mods for Forge. 34,764 mods support Minecraft 1.20.1.
