About this project

What does Better Nether Portal add?

Ready for a new challenge? Better Nether Portal completely overhauls the mechanics of creating a Nether portal! Forget about the standard 4×5 portals—now you’ll need to build a massive 5×5 structure with a mysterious core at the center of the bottom layer.

Mod Features: New Portal Design - now a monumental structure requiring more resources and effort. Portal Core - a special block essential for activating the portal.

To activate the portal, you need to click on the core with the item specified in the config (by default, flint and steel)
