About this Mod



Welcome to PortalMod, a project aiming to reimagine the Portal experience in Minecraft.
Besides the Portal Gun, PortalMod adds a variety of features from the Portal franchise, redesigned to feel at home in Minecraft.
The mod is developed with full survival compatibility and multiplayer support in mind, for building and solving test chambers with friends. Cake included!


This mod adds a variety of test elements from the Portal games, allowing you to create your own test chambers.
We got Cubes and Cube Droppers as well as cool Buttons for revolutionary cube-and-button based testing. These buttons connect to Chamber Doors with Antlines, similar to redstone.
You can further enrich your chambers with Gels, Fizzlers, Aerial Faith Plates, Autoportals and more! Or add hazards like Turrets or Deadly Goo to remove unwanted test subjects after testing.
We also, of course, didn't forget to include some awesome decorative blocks. The white and black panels come in many variants, as well as a lot of additional variety in placement.
Decorate more with flickering Chamber Lights, configurable Chamber Signs, Platforms and Beams great for stairs, and some really nice types of Iron Frames for all kinds of structural builds.


Join our Discord server to share your creations, discuss all kinds of topics, participate in cool community events and get exclusive updates while we work on porting the mod to modern versions of Minecraft.
You can report issues or suggestions on the Github Issues page. We could really use some help on how we can improve the mod!


If you'd like to support the project, you can do so on our Donate page, or by boosting our Discord server!
Both of these will unlock a special Portal Gun skin in-game, visible to everyone! More info on Portal Gun skins here.

PortalMod server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.16.5). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is PortalMod compatible with forge?
PortalMod officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.16.5. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with PortalMod – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if PortalMod consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
