PLEASE DO NOT ADD THIS MOD TO YOUR SMP! It is intended to be played through a single time on a new world, using only the required dependencies.

Ever wonder what lies beyond the Ancient City's portal?

This mod adds a new pedestal right in front of the Ancient City's portal, in the city center. Activating the pedestal requires a Warden's Key, which can be obtained by killing a Warden. But be careful — once opened, the portal cannot be closed.

How to play

This mod requires Geckolib, Cloth Config, and Fabric API. You can also try using Sodium and Starlight for better performance, but sometimes they can cause rendering issues, in which case you'll have to play without them.

DO NOT ADD ANY OTHER MODS, AT ALL, OR ELSE YOU WILL HAVE PROBLEMS!

Playing this mod properly requires a number of specific settings:

Server-side settings (in server.properties, if playing on a server):

  • Simulation distance of 32
  • View distance of 32
  • allow-flight=true

Game rules:

  • /gamerule doImmediateRespawn true
  • /gamerule keepInventory true

Client settings:

  • Use Fancy graphics (not Fabulous)
  • 32 render distance
  • 32 simulation distance
  • Disable view bobbing

We are aware many people will not be able to use 32 render/simulation distance for performance reasons. You can try to set it lower, but you may experience some bugs. You cannot set it below 16, or else you will have major rendering issues.

Other notes:

  • Give all players diamond armor, sword, and food. Can use worse gear for a bigger challenge.
  • No pickaxes/mining!

We made this mod for a video for MrBeast & friends. As such, there may be some bugs and unexpected behaviors. For the best experience, if playing in a group, try to have all players generally stick together. It is particularly important that all players be next to the pedestal when you activate it.

Enjoy <3
