Instant Nether Travel
by CraftyCoder
Instant Nether Travel lets players pass through a Nether portal and arrive at the other side at once, skipping the usual transition effect.
What it does
Stepping into a Nether portal normally starts a delay and a screen effect before the player is moved. This Forge mod removes that transition, so a player who walks into the portal is teleported immediately. Holding the sprint key, Ctrl by default, keeps the portal's normal behavior, which lets a player pass through a portal without activating it.
