Your world. Your clock. Your time.

Real Life Time is a Fabric mod that syncs Minecraft's in-game time with your computer's real-world clock β€” automatically and in real time. If the sun has set outside your window, it sets in your world too.

Day Example


βš™οΈ How does it work?

πŸŒ… Real-Time Sync
The mod reads your system clock every second and converts it directly into Minecraft ticks. No commands, no setup β€” it just works.

πŸ• Time Mapping

Real Time Minecraft
06:00 Sunrise
12:00 Noon
18:00 Sunset
00:00 Midnight

πŸ”„ Automatic Cycle Control
The doDaylightCycle gamerule is automatically disabled so the mod has full control over the time. No more day skipping.

βš™οΈ Cloth Config Integration
All settings are adjustable in-game via a clean config screen β€” no file editing needed.


πŸ› οΈ Configuration

All options are available via Mod Menu β†’ Real Life Time β†’ Config or in config/reallifetime.json.

Option Default Description
βœ… Enable Mod true Toggle the sync on or off without removing the mod
🌍 Time Zone Offset 0 Shift the clock Β±12 hours β€” useful for servers in a different time zone
πŸŒ… Sunrise Hour 6 The real-world hour that maps to Minecraft sunrise (tick 0)
⏱️ Sync Interval 20 How often the time is synced in ticks (20 = once per second)
πŸ”₯ Sync Nether false Apply real-world time to the Nether dimension

🎯 Who is this for?

This mod is perfect for players who:

  • Want a more immersive survival experience tied to the real world
  • Play on servers with friends across time zones and want a shared day/night cycle
  • Love roleplay or realism modpacks where immersion matters
  • Want to add a unique challenge β€” no more sleeping through the night
  • Run events or streams where the real time of day adds atmosphere

Whether you're playing at noon with the sun high in the sky or grinding at midnight under the stars β€” Real Life Time makes your world feel alive.


πŸ’‘ Note

  • Server-side only β€” clients do NOT need to install the mod
  • Requires Fabric API and Cloth Config API
  • Only the Overworld is synced by default β€” Nether and End are optional
  • Syncs every 20 ticks (once per second) for smooth and efficient performance
  • Config changes take effect on the next sync tick β€” no restart needed
