Portable Hole

About the Mod

The Portable Hole mod adds a unique magical tool to the game that can only be found in stronghold chests. This mysterious item can temporarily make blocks disappear, creating a 3x3 passage. But be careful - the effect lasts only a few seconds, after which all blocks return to their original positions. Don't get distracted by the beautiful visual effects and act quickly!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: The portal texture is not showing for me! A: The portal texture is incompatible with shaders, you'll have to rely on the fancy spark particles only.

Q: How do I configure this mod? A: Mods can have three different kinds of configs depending on the kind of settings they provide: Client, Common, and Server.

Client and Common configs are found in /.minecraft/config/, named as <modId>-client.toml and <modId>-common.toml, respectively.

Server configs though are applied per world, therefore you'll find those in /.minecraft/saves/<world>/serverconfig/<modId>-server.toml for local singleplayer worlds, and in /<world>/serverconfig/<modId>-server.toml for your Minecraft server. Changes made to a server config only apply to that one world. Setting default values in server configs for all newly created worlds is possible by copying the modified server config to /.minecraft/defaultconfigs/.

In a local singleplayer world you can quickly find config files by running the /config showfile <modid> command and by choosing CLIENT, COMMON or SERVER. Then click the file name (ending with .toml) that appears in chat to open the file in a text editor. After saving the file, the config will automatically reload in-game after a couple of seconds, so no game restart required.

On some mod loaders editing configs is also supported in-game via the Mods menu option. On some Minecraft versions you can also install the Config Menus for Forge mod for editing configs directly in-game.
