Description

Time Orbs

Make time for your next adventure.

Bring on the dawn, settle into the night, or give your base a magical centerpiece. Time Orbs adds craftable orbs, reusable wands, and a working Grandfather Clock that put the day–night cycle in your hands.

A clock worth building around

The Grandfather Clock is the centerpiece of your time-controlling toolkit. Build it for your workshop, tower, or home, then use it to choose noon, midnight, sunset, or moonset—as often as you like.

Carry the sun and moon

Keep a little time magic in your inventory:

Item What it does Uses
Solar Orb Brings the world to dawn Single use
Lunar Orb Brings the world to night Single use
Solar Wand Brings the world to dawn 16 uses
Lunar Wand Brings the world to night 16 uses
Grandfather Clock Offers four time presets Reusable

Start with a shard

Explore the Overworld for Solar Ore and Lunar Ore, then turn your discoveries into something more powerful.

  1. Collect Solar Shards or Lunar Shards.
  2. Combine nine matching shards into an orb.
  3. Combine nine matching orbs into a Sun Block or Moon Block.
  4. Craft a Clock Core using Sun Blocks, Moon Blocks, and a vanilla clock, then build your Grandfather Clock.

The 1.21.1 editions include recipe-book entries, with Fortune and Silk Touch support for the ores.

A more dramatic way to change the time

Activate a Sun Block or Moon Block to begin a three-second ritual, followed by lightning and a large explosion. Sun Blocks bring noon; Moon Blocks bring midnight.

Give these blocks plenty of space. Their explosions can damage your surroundings.

Installation

Install Time Orbs on both the client and server. For Minecraft 1.2.5, use the Forge Client JAR on the client (including singleplayer) and the matching Forge Server JAR on a dedicated server. The other 2.0.0 builds use one JAR for both sides.

Fabric builds require Fabric API for the same Minecraft version. Forge and NeoForge builds use their matching loader.

The 2.0.0 builds are beta releases. The original 1.0.0 Fabric build for Minecraft 1.19.4 remains available as a legacy alpha download.

Time changes preserve your world's accumulated days. Back up existing worlds before upgrading from an older Minecraft version.
