This mod does not magically gives you creative! All it does is skips the check for the vanilla permission level, because many servers (pretty much all of them except, well, vanilla ones) ignore that check as well.

Q: Where and how can I use game mode switcher without permissions?
A: In vanilla Minecraft, you need operator status to use game mode switcher, which obviously, you won't have on servers you don't own. But, maybe you have access to /gamemode command and in this case you want to use F3 + F4 to save those precious seconds of your life. But you can't. You're not an operator. This is where this mod comes in handy.

Q: Is it compatible with {mod name}?
A: Yes. Well, it should be compatible with pretty much anything - it's a very simple mod. If it's not - create an issue on GitHub.

[1.16.x] Please note mod requires at least Java 11 in order to run! Also note the mod is client-side only, which means you don't have to install it on server.
