List of client commands

Commands offer advanced features and configuration abilities for your game. There are really 2 lists of commands - Client and Server. The client is what displays your game on the screen, plays the sounds, takes in your controls and lets you connect to a game server (single or multiplayer). Client commands are those that usually just affect the appearance of your game, while server commands allows you to modify the world or configuration of the game.

All commands are typed in the chat window in order to execute them. A client command always starts with a dot (.), while a server command always starts with a slash (/).

Here is a list of the most useful ones. See the temporarily attached full list from 1.5.1.4 at the bottom of the page. You can use .help [command] to see its help.

Client Commands

.cam

• .cam [p|rp|start|stop|clear|load|save|alpha|tp]
  The cinematic camera tool system.
  • .cam p
    Adds the current position to the list of places to visit.
  • .cam rp
    Removes the last added point.
  • .cam clear
    Removes all points.
  • .cam start
    Starts the cinematic camera, i.e. it will smoothly traverse all points.
  • .cam stop
    Stops the cinematic camera.
  • .cam save
    Exports the current list of points into your clipboard, which you then can paste into any text editor.
  • .cam load [data]
    Import supplied list of points.
  • .cam tp [0 or 1]
    Toggles whether to teleport you back to your previous position after the camera path has been completed.
  • .cam alpha [0..1]
    Modifies how the smoothly the points are traversed by the camera.

.clearchat

• .clearchat
  Clears your chat history.

.clientconfig

• .clientconfig [parameterName] [parameterValue]
  Changes client configuration at runtime. It can change any value in the clientsettings.json file. parametername may seem like subcommands, but is actually a dynamic list of options. This means that mods can change the list of options.
  • floatyGuis [1|0]
    Enables/disables the experimental feature where chest dialogs float above the chests
  • showentitydebuginfo [0|1]
    Displays arbitrary debug information above entities
    May require corresponding server command /entity debug 1
  • ssaa [0.5|2]
    Controls Screen Space Anti-Aliasing. 0.5 value enables 0.5x Sampling rate and may give a performance gain at the cost of reduced graphics quality for low end hardware. 2 value enables 2-4x Sampling rate.
  • gammaLevel [level]
    Allows to set gamma level in survival mode. Value 1 is the default 100%, 1.5 is brighter.

.debug

• .debug wireframe chunk
  Shows chunk borders. [List of server commands/debug] also exists. Use .help debug for more info on debug commands. Running .debug wireframe will give some help info.

.reload

• .reload shapes
  Reloads all JSON models from assets/blockshapes. Can be used to quickly test new block shapes.
  Notice: The chunks are not redrawn, so you'd have to force a redraw e.g. by placing and removing a block.
  • .reload textures
    Reloads all textures from assets/textures. Can be used to quickly test texture changes.

.viewdistance

• .viewdistance
  Sets the viewing distance. Same as setting the view distance in the graphics settings but with no upper limit. For viewing distances above 1000 blocks you also have to set the .zfar value above that.

.zfar

• .zfar [value]
  Sets the clipping plane distance, everything beyond given value is no longer visible (default value is 1000). Very high values will cause Z-fighting.
