What it does

The dimension is a desert-only world type kept apart from the overworld, so every player starts on equal ground with the same biome and space. A portal opens into it when built with an obsidian frame, sandstone at the top and cobblestone at the bottom and corners. Required dependencies are Dimension Fixer and World Portal, and Fabric API is optional on Fabric. The environment is server-side only, and the mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 17 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.2.

Key features

  1. Single-biome desert dimension

    A separate dimension filled with one desert biome, with no other biomes to explore.

  2. Obsidian and sandstone portal

    The portal frame uses obsidian, sandstone and cobblestone blocks, arranged as the author describes.

  3. Passenger portal fix

    Passengers can travel through the portal along with the player who entered it.
