GM4D or PSIV) was the fourth server owned by [https://www.youtube.com/accidentalgames Accidental Games] to give fans of Gamemode 4 a survival server to play with Gamemode 4's many modules (a list is provided below). The server was officially opened on November 10th, 2017 and closed on October 29th, 2018.

== Rules ==
== Description ==
All players are expected to know and follow these rules at all times. Failure to do so could result in punishment. For more detailed rules- visit the [https://gm4.co/rules Gamemode 4 Website].
Gamemode 4D featured many different dimensions, each of which served a different purpose. When first spawning in Gamemode 4D, players would spawn in [[Landings]], randomly spread out from each other. They would have a book in their inventory that explains how to craft a [[Mandala]]. The Mandala would allow players to travel to different dimensions.
 
=== Server Rules ===
* No Cheating
* No Stealing
* No Griefing
* Respect Others Builds
* No Spam
* No Impersonating Moderators
* Be Responsible for your Account
* No Hate Speech
* No Excessive Lag
 
=== Discord Rules ===
* Other discords related to Gamemode 4 are allowed, but not moderated, nor supported by the staff team.
* Please use the text channels for their intended purposes
* #help is strictly for contacting staff.
 
* If an issue needs to be brought to the attention of the staff team, you may use the ping-able roles: @staff, @mod, or @admin.
* An @admin does not need to know when you have been stolen from, and a @cmod cannot help you if you lose your player-data through some glitch.
* Try to avoid posting download links in the discord, in case the link is malicious. Instead, DM the interested people.
 
== Player Ranks ==
There were four ranks on the server. Ranks were not progression-based, nor did ranks indicate extra survival features.
* '''Donor''' - Donors have a gold-coloured name. One-time donation players receive this rank for a month, Patrons of the server have the rank until the end of their patronage.
* '''Community Moderator''' - Indicated by a red "CM" in front of their names, Community Moderators can check for griefers / thieves on a server. These are assigned by the Admins.
* '''Moderator''' - Indicated by a red "M" in front of their names, Moderators can check for griefers / thieves on a server, teleport to players in need and rollback damage. These are assigned by the Admins.
* '''Admin''' - Indicated by a red "A" in front of their aqua-coloured names, Admins are responsible for the running of the server. They have OP (operator) permissions, can add, modify or remove Gamemode 4 Modules.  
 
== Getting Started on Gamemode 4D ==
When first spawning in Gamemode 4D, the player would spawn randomly in Landings. They would have a book in their inventory that explains to have to craft a [[Mandala]] (in a normal crafting table). The Mandala would allow players to travel to different dimensions. While holding the Mandala in [[Landings]], right clicking the particles would take the player to the Overworld.

Gamemode 4D (a.k.a. GM4D or PSIV) was the fourth server owned by Accidental Games to give fans of Gamemode 4 a survival server to play with Gamemode 4's many modules (a list is provided below). The server was officially opened on November 10th, 2017 and closed on October 29th, 2018.

This server was the first official Gamemode 4 server to be fully public and without a whitelist. Previous servers required players to apply for access.

Description

Gamemode 4D featured many different dimensions, each of which served a different purpose. When first spawning in Gamemode 4D, players would spawn in Landings, randomly spread out from each other. They would have a book in their inventory that explains how to craft a Mandala. The Mandala would allow players to travel to different dimensions.

Installed Modules

Below is a list of the modules installed on Gamemode 4D. Some modules only worked in certain dimensions; read the notes for more information.

Dimensions

There were several dimensions you could reach in Gamemode 4D. To teleport to different dimensions you would need to use a Mandala at specific places, depending on your intended destination. Below is a list of all permanent dimensions that were present on Gamemode 4D. For a full list of dimensions and links, visit the Mandala page.

Vanilla Dimensions

There were several differences between the normal dimensions of Minecraft and the dimensions of Gamemode 4D. The Overworld, Nether, and End had been tweaked to make the survival experience more difficult.

Overworld

The overworld was altered significantly: the bedrock layer was raised, less ore types could be found, and villagers were not found in this world. Additionally, the two other vanilla dimensions (Nether and End) could not be accessed through this dimension.

Nether

The Nether could not be accessed through the Overworld. To reach the Nether, a portal could be built at the very bottom area of Lower Caves. Portals in the Nether had to be below a certain height to properly activate.

The End

The End could not be accessed through the Overworld. To reach the End, a player had to use an End Portal found on the Moon.
