GameMode Inventories
Downloads
I'm too lazy to upload GMI files to Bukkit anymore, as builds are automatically created when the plugin is updated and changes pushed to GitHub.
For 1.18.x, please download GMI from the TARDIS Jenkins server: http://tardisjenkins.duckdns.org:8080/job/GameModeInventories/
Features
GameMode Inventories allows you to have separate inventories for Creative and Survival game modes (it also works for Adventure!).
- Inventories are saved and switched automatically
- Configurable option to save and restore inventories on player death
- Configurable option to also switch XP amount automatically (enabled by default)
- Configurable option to also switch armor automatically (enabled by default)
- Configurable option to also switch Ender Chest inventories automatically (enabled by default)
- Configurable option to restrict inventory opening for Chests, Ender Chests, Enchantment Tables, Anvils, Furnaces and Dispensers in CREATIVE game mode
- Configurable option to disable players dropping items from their inventories in CREATIVE game mode
- Configurable option to disable players from picking up items in CREATIVE game mode
- Configurable option to remove potion effects when switching from CREATIVE to SURVIVAL
- Configurable option turn off the plugin's messages which can get excessive when
no_pickups
andno_drops
are enabled - Configurable option to track the placement of CREATIVE gamemode placed blocks, then either: disable them from being broken, or, allow them to be broken but not drop anything - and also prevent pistons from moving them and deny the block dropping if the attached block is broken - this MUST be enabled for a world to work. You can specify a list of blocks you don't want to track as well
- Configurable option to prevents drops from falling blocks e.g. anvils, gravel, sand
- Configurable option to prevent the breaking of bedrock in CREATIVE, set to false to prevent breaks below Y<5 in all worlds, and Y>122 in the Nether
- Configurable blacklist of blocks that cannot be placed in CREATIVE (use Spigot Material names)
- Configurable blacklist of commands that cannot be used in CREATIVE
- Configurable option to preserve custom attributes when switching inventories (player and armour only)
- Configurable options to set which GMI features can be bypassed
- Configurable option to restrict spectator gamemode access
- Configurable option to switch to a creative world when changing to gamemode CREATIVE
- Localisable messages - edit messages.yml
- Support for using a MySQL database

How it works
Add the GameModeInventories.jar file to your server's plugins directory and start up the server. A config file will be created automatically with the default values.
Then all you have to do is switch game modes and your current inventory, armor and XP will be saved and your new game mode inventory will take its place.
What it doesn't do
GameMode Inventories is not a replacement for the Creative Control plugin:
- its primary purpose is an inventory management tool
- this is NOT likely to change anytime soon
- please stop asking
GameMode Inventories is an open sourced project, if you want to make the changes yourself, you are free to do so, as long as the plugin is released under the same license and conditions as GameMode Inventories.
Timings
Please do not bother posting timings for this plugin, here's why:
- See above
- I don't use any of the plugins' 'restriction' features
- You should expect to see GMI working hard if you have
track_creative_place
enabled, this is normal, after all, GMI is watching all your players all the time, and is keeping them all in line while not bothering you. Any server owner will eventually have a problem if he pushes his hardware too much, for example by running lots of heavyweight plugins. - If you do have a problem, the solutions are to either add more RAM/cpu power, re-prioritize your plugins to drop a few you don't desperately need, reduce your max players or seriously think about why you are letting your players have Creative gamemode at all (if you can't trust them not to abuse it, then don't let them have it, or set up a creative only world).
- Finally, don't expect SQLite to be able to handle big loads - if you are running this plugin on a server with
track_creative_place
enabled, you should probably be using MySQL as the GMI database provider

Development builds of this project can be acquired at the provided continuous integration server.

is it possible to change the config so certain people aren't affected by this (such as staff)
could you add a feature that when you place a block in creative you cant pick it up in survival?

Check the Files page
Looks like this is having some issues with switching between survival and creative - inventory loss, inventories staying when you switch - on 1.5.1
This is exactly the same thing as CreativeControl..
Yea ! Update it! :P
EDIT: Oh lol, its updated ! :D
Now the plugin doesn't work for 1.5 :(
Try to fix it, because all players of my server are without survival inventory....
Sorry about my English XD
@TGG001
I dont want to use any other plguins ... I want to use this one :3
@therealspoljo
Yea, there's a plugin we use on a server I'm Head-Admin on and it's card limitedcreative. It deletes things thrown and someone or at the floor.:)
Hi eccentricnz, can you add an option so that creative mode players cant pickup stuff from the ground? And configurable with the config :P
@eccentricnz
nice work eccentric ! I tested all commands, no problem.
Thank. o/
@UtiQuanti
Found the bug, the latest version should be good to go
http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/gamemodeinventories/files/13-game-mode-inventories-1-4-7/
Adding the new 'enderchest' field to the database defaults to [Null] so the bug would have only affected players who had a GMI database record (and only the first time they logged in and switched to a new game mode, after that they would be OK), new players were fine.
durr I thought I already had :(
@UtiQuanti
Both of these errors have got to do with whether the player has ever had an Ender Chest... I'm doing a null check if it can't get the ender chest contents, but I don't think Bukkit has the ability to check whether the player has ever had an ender chest, I'm hoping I don't have to start messing around with player.dat files, but will do some more testing...
@diannetea
Please update to the latest version
@Matt_Hotpocket
There is no code in GameModeInventories that gives random items...
When i go into survival mode from creative mode it gives me a new set of chain mail armor!?! And it keeps doing that whenever i go into survival mode. HELP ME!
Ah!
One error on player's login :
EDIT : Error on /gamemode 2
