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

Will look into the jukebox issue, for spawn eggs - http://wiki.sk89q.com/wiki/WorldGuard/Blacklist
Please be aware that this is not meant to be a creative control plugin, just a simple inventory switcher...
players can dupe disks by spam right clicking jukeboxes, could we also get mob eggs blocked?
@monstercat101
Make a ticket, if it gets enough votes, I'll do it
Not quite sure what you mean in the second part of your comment.
Can we please be able to break creative placed blocks, but no drop occurs. Also, if you die in gm, /kill, the items are dropped.
@ElectricEagleHD
I suggest you read the sections on configuration and permissions above...
How do I make it so Mods/Admins when they are in creative the GameMode Inventories actually work? It only works for Owners/OPs
Right there is a Glitch , I'm in survival with and Iron sword then I go in Creative I have nothing I'm still in creative I spawn in Iron Armour then I go in Survival then I have Iron armour
@diannetea
You would need to set
track_creative_place
false as well...?Can you explain exactly what you want to be happening?
With restrict_creative set to false, with proper permissions, my admin and I are now having a problem with breaking creative blocks when in survival mode. Can you please check this?
Great job man! This is a really cool plugin :D

@eccentricnz
Thanks man.. This is going to make a lot of server owners happy I'll let other servers know about this plugin when it's ready Thanks again......Mike
New file uploaded and awaiting Bukkit approval...
If this plugin had a thing to prevent placing of certain blocks like diamond then a perm for admins or builder to be able to place any block that would be awesome :D
@eccentricnz
Ok man....
@mgd9000
Not interested in 'the most downloaded plugin'... I already have enough work to do as it is
@eccentricnz
Yes but do you know how many servers use creative control? Your plugin is so close to creative control its crazy. Think about it man? You can have the most downloaded plugin if you fix the small problem with breaking creative blocks in survival! Trust me on this! The creative control plugin is dead and a lot of big and small servers are looking for a replacement. and you are the only one that is so close! Your name will be known all over if you do this!! Shit I'll even donate to you!
@cuddyier
It depends on how you have your server setup, personally I wouldn't give my players permission to use the game mode command, however I would set up a survival world and a creative world, and moving between worlds will switch your inventory - problem solved...
The alternative is logging every creative block place and then checking every single block that is broken to see whether it was placed while in creative gamemode - which would make this a much more heavyweight plugin - something that I don't want.
@therealspoljo
It needs added, it'll be a perfect replacement for creative control then. At the moment there isn't much point in separate inventories when you can just place in creative and break in survival.
@mgd9000
That's not even a feature of this plugin...
Players can still set creative items down and break them in survival. Other then that it's a great plugin
