ClockTime

A lightweight Minecraft plugin that enhances the in-game clock with localized, customizable time displays.

  • Localized Time

    Automatically formats time using each player's client language — including native AM/PM symbols.

    Quick start

  • Dynamic Translations

    Ships with 16+ built-in languages, and scans the languages/ folder for any custom translation files (messages_*.properties) added by administrators.

    Translations

  • Zero Configuration

    Drop the JAR into plugins/ or mods/ and go. Easily configure fallback options or register custom wild-spin worlds.

    Configuration

  • Dimension Aware

    Detects Nether, End, or custom configured dimensions where time doesn't exist and shows a special message instead of broken values.

    Quick start

  • Item Frame Clocks

    Clocks placed in item frames dynamically display the current time in real-time, functioning as visual wall clocks.

    Configuration

How It Works

  1. A player holds a Clock in their main hand.
  2. They right-click.
  3. The current in-game time appears in chat, formatted in their language.

ClockTime Demo

What the player sees (Text Format)

Current Time: 2:30 PM

Hora Actual: 14:30

現在の時刻: 午後2:30

Nether, End & Custom Dimensions

In dimensions where time doesn't exist (Nether, The End, or custom dimensions configured in config.yml), the clock shows a special message:

The clock spins wildly... Time has no meaning here.
