How do I install Time Control Mod?

Download the mod for your Minecraft version, then place the file in your .minecraft/mods folder. You'll need Minecraft Forge installed first. Restart the game and the mod loads automatically.

Can I use this mod on a multiplayer server?

Yes, Time Control Mod works on both singleplayer and multiplayer servers. You need to install it on both client and server. On dedicated servers, you might see minor visual jitter due to ping differences, but gameplay is not affected.

What Minecraft versions does Time Control Mod support?

The mod is available for Minecraft 1.12.2, 1.15.2, 1.16.5, 1.17.1, 1.18.2, 1.18.1, and 1.19.4, 1.19.3, 1.19.2. Download the version that matches your Minecraft installation.

How do I change the day and night lengths?

Edit the config file, or use the in-game commands if cheats are enabled: /timecontrol set day_length_minutes 30 /timecontrol set night_length_minutes 10. Changes take effect immediately.

Will this mod break other mods?

Time Control Mod doesn't modify base classes or use ASM, so it's generally safe with other mods. If you run into issues, check the mod list for conflicts or report them.

Time Control Mod (1.19.4, 1.18.2) Download

Time Control Mod gives you full control over Minecraft’s day-night cycle. Instead of waiting 20 minutes for daylight or dealing with a fixed schedule, you can set your own times. Configure day and night lengths independently using a simple config file, or sync the cycle to your system clock. No base class modifications, no ASM, no messing with game ticks. It just works.

How It Works

The mod uses a config file to handle everything. You can set day length and night length separately, both measured in minutes. Want a 30-minute day and 10-minute night? Done. Need perpetual daylight? Set night to 0. You can also enable sync mode to match Minecraft time with your real system clock.

The mod is multiplayer-safe. It works on both singleplayer and multiplayer servers, though you’ll need it installed on both client and server for multiplayer. On dedicated servers with variable lag, you might see slight skybox jitter, but gameplay is unaffected.

Commands

You can adjust the cycle in-game without restarting if cheats are enabled.

/timecontrol get <sync_to_system_time | night_length_minutes | day_length_minutes>
/timecontrol set <night_length_minutes | day_length_minutes>

Installation

First, make sure you have Minecraft Forge installed for your version. Then drop the mod file into your mods folder (.minecraft/mods). Restart the game and you’re done.
