Description

Portal Glimpse

Nether portals show you where they lead.

A portal in the Nether showing a birch forest

How it works

Travel through a portal and Portal Glimpse quietly photographs the other side. From then on, that portal shows the destination instead of a purple screen.

You only ever see places you have actually been.

  • Walk up to a portal and the view shifts with real perspective
  • Step back and it settles into a still image
  • Stand inside one and you appear to be standing in the destination

Shaders

Tested and calibrated per pack, with the level of support shown in the settings.

  • BSL — full support
  • Photon — full support
  • Solas — partial, some edge artifacts

Other packs still work, but are uncalibrated and may look too dark or washed out. Sodium is supported throughout.

Showcase

Settings

In game

A small portal beside Advancements in the pause menu opens the settings. Right-drag it to move it, or turn it off entirely.

Worth knowing

  • Captured images are stored per world and per server
  • The settings screen shows how much disk they use, and can clear them per world
  • The portal swirl, view distance, and capture quality are all adjustable

Notes

  • Requires Fabric API and Cloth Config
  • This is a beta. It works, but expect rough edges
  • If you face any bugs, come directly to my discord and tell me about it : rinke_
