Hello!! At HolyHosting, we want to make sure your Minecraft experience is exactly how you imagine it. If you want all players joining your server to have the Creative game mode by default, you’re in the right place! Here’s how to do it in just a few steps. 🧱✨

Step 1: Access the Server Files 🖥️

Open your server’s control panel and go to the “Files” section.

Step 2: Locate the server.properties File 📄

Inside your server files, find the file named server.properties. This file contains several essential settings for your server.

Step 3: Modify the Game Mode Setting ⚙️

Open the server.properties file. Look for the line that says gamemode=survival and change survival to creative, like this:

Step 4: Enforce the Game Mode 📄

Find the line that says force-gamemode and change the value from false to true.

Step 5: Save the Changes and Restart the Server 🔄

After making the change, save the file and restart your server for the changes to take effect. Now, all players will automatically join in Creative mode! 🚀

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) ❓

What happens if players are already on the server?

If players are already on the server when you change the default game mode, they will remain in their current game mode until they die or you manually change it using the /gamemode command.

Can I set the default game mode to something else?Absolutely! Just replace creative with survival or adventure in the server.properties file.

What should I do if the server doesn’t start after making changes?

Make sure the server.properties file doesn’t contain any syntax errors. If the problem persists, contact our Technical Support, and we’ll help you resolve the issue. 🛠️
