How To Enable Cheats in Minecraft

INTRODUCTION – HOW TO ENABLE CHEATS IN MINECRAFT

In Minecraft adventures, different roles and paths can be taken to advance and survive. From harvesting resources and crafting buildings to taking on the deadliest mobs. These adventures you experience can become harder as you take on more challenging builds and mobs! To help with the difficulty, you can enable cheats in Minecraft to make it easier for you and your fellow players.

Minecraft cheats are commands that are performable in the Minecraft game and on Minecraft servers. By using cheats, you’ll be able to do nearly anything including spawning in resources, summoning creatures, and changing the gamemode. Delve below into the world of cheats by learning how to enable cheats in Minecraft for your Minecraft server!

USING CHEATS IN MINECRAFT

ENABLING CHEATS IN MINECRAFT SINGLE-PLAYER

1. To use cheats in single-player, pause the game and press the “Open to LAN” option.
   
2. Afterward, click on “Allow Cheats” to set that option to “ON”.
   
3. Once on, at the bottom press “Start LAN World” to enable cheats on your single-player Minecraft world. You will now be able to start using cheat commands within the chat of your server.
   

HOW TO ENABLE CHEATS ON A MINECRAFT SERVER

1. Head to your Minecraft server control panel.
2. To the left of your server panel, under “TOOLS”, select “Live Server Console”.
   
3. In your server’s Live Server Console, type the command ‘op USERNAME’. Replace USERNAME with your Minecraft username.
   
4. Once a player is Op on a Minecraft server, it’ll provide them with Operator status. Operator status gives a player full access to all cheats and commands on your dedicated Minecraft server.

HOW TO USE CHEATS IN MINECRAFT

1. Once cheats are enabled, join the game or Minecraft server.
2. To use cheat commands, open the game console by pressing the following:
   • PC keyboard – Slash(/) key
   • Xbox controller – Right on the D-Pad
   • Playstation controller – Right on the D-Pad
3. Once the console is open, type the command in and then send that command.
   
4. The command you entered will run, performing that action.

BEST MINECRAFT CHEAT COMMANDS

Now that you can use cheats, you’ll unlock access to many commands to change nearly every aspect of the game or your Minecraft server. These are just some of the many commands you can use with cheats enabled.

CHANGE YOUR GAMEMODE IN MINECRAFT

COMMAND: /gamemode <gamemode>

You can change the gamemode of your player in Minecraft. When changing your gamemode, you can experience the game in entirely new ways with different rules!

• Survival mode is the default gamemode in Minecraft.
• Creative mode allows you to get and place infinite blocks.
• Adventure mode stops players from breaking blocks or building.
• Spectator mode makes players invisible and only allows them to watch as a ghost.

SUMMONING MINECRAFT MOBS

COMMANDS:

• One mob: /summon <entity> <position> <nbt tags>
• Multiple mobs: /summon area_effect_cloud <position> {Passengers:[{id:”<entity>”},{id:”<entity>”},{id:”<entity>”}]}

Do you need a mob or specific materials from one? With the summon command, you can spawn any Minecraft mobs into your game or server. Summon an army of pigs or end the game early with some ender dragons at your server spawn!

ENCHANTING ITEMS IN MINECRAFT

COMMAND: /enchant <target> <enchantment> <level>

Using the enchant cheat command in Minecraft, you can add any supported enchantments to your tools and armor. Need a trident with every enchantment possible? Or an extremely durable and protective set of diamond armor? You can make it happen!

KILL ENTITIES AND MOBS IN MINECRAFT

COMMANDS:

• Kill a player: /kill <playername>
• Kill all of a mob: /kill @e[type=<mobname>]
• Kill all of a mob in a radius: /kill @e[r=<distance>,type=<mobname>]
• Kill all item entities: /kill @e[type=item]
• Kill all entities except players: /kill @e[type=!player]

Sometimes too many mobs will appear on your server or may have been spawned using the summon command. Once there are too many mobs or entities, they can begin to cause lag for your Minecraft game and server. You can clear these mobs by using the kill command, allowing you and your friends to continue enjoying an adventure!

HOW TO ENABLE & USE CHEATS FOR MORE FUN WITH FRIENDS IN MINECRAFT

Now that you know how to enable cheats in Minecraft, you’re ready to use cheats to change the ways you and your friends play. Enchant the most powerful sword in Minecraft, summon Withers in your friend’s home, or maybe replace all the blocks in the world with TNT and have an explosive time! Anything you can imagine and more is now possible when you enable and use cheats on your own Minecraft game server.
