Download Custom Portals v1.1.3 [1.6.2-R0.1] (Dev Build)
See the source code on GitHub.
Description
This little plugin allows you to create custom Nether and Ender portals. It means you can create these portals using any blocks for the frame and any shapes.
This plugin is compatible with TravelGates v1.10.18 !
Configuration
Just run the plugin once and the config file will be created with default values. They are modifiable in game and automatically saved.
- usepermissions: [true|false] -> enable the internal Bukkit permissions system or use the OP statuts
- enderframeblock: [BlockType|other] -> enable the use of a block type for building Ender portals or disable if another value is used
- netherframeblock: [BlockType|other] -> enable the use of a block type for building Nether portals or disable if another value is used
- maxportalblocks: <positive number> -> define the maximum portal blocks the plugins is allowed to create
Commands
Main command is /customportals (with some convenient aliases: cp, custportals, customportal, cportal).
- /cp on : your player is able to create custom portals
- /cp off : your player is no more able to create custom portals
- /cp enderframeblock [BlockType|other] : configure the ender frame block to use in the portals or disable if other value used
- /cp netherframeblock [BlockType|other] : configure the nether frame block to use in the portals or disable if other value used
- /cp usepermissions [true|false] : configure if the plugin uses permissions (auto saved)
- /cp maxportalblocks [positive number] : configure the maximum portal blocks the plugin is allowed to create (auto saved)
How to create portals
- Nether: enable the custom portals for your player with /cp on. Then, get a flint and steel in your hand and right-click on the upper face of the lower block of the portal frame (as you would do with a normal Nether portal). In case of wrong portal shape, just break one block, and all the Nether portal will disappear. You can create Nether portals in the Nether but they won't send you there.
- Ender: enable the custom portals for your player with /cp on. Then, get an eye of ender in your hand and right-click on the inside face of the portal frame block. In case of wrong portal shape, if you have enabled the custom portals (/cp on), you can clean an ender portal by right-clicking on an ender portal block holding a wool block (any color). The plugin will clean the entire Ender portal. You cannot create Ender portals in Ender worlds.

They’re bringing me to the nether :\
@Weszzzz
It should. The plugin now uses only the Bukkit API. I will try to make a release for the development build during the weekend.
Is this working in 1.6 ?
@devilsphere007
What do you mean by a shop display? Do you mean just the portal effect? I can help if it is just a portal effect
hHi mate dont know if this cause any issue as it seems to be working but in my log file i keep getting [SEVERE] [CustomPortals] Invalid material: null, im not using it for portals just as shop displays
Updated to 1.5.1-R0.2 Dev Build. I have removed all the CraftBukkit code in the plugin, so it may be compatible with previous and future Bukkit versions.
Edit: as this version manage trappedchest, it won't be compatible with versions older than Minecraft v1.5.
O im using 1.5 bukkit. No wonder!! Thzz!!
Ok, I will try to do it soon, but this weekend I'm not at home. Perhaps on Monday.
I'd really enjoy if you updated for a dev build. This is just what I need for my server.
@Frenzyxcreeper
If you play with a bukkit version different than 1.4.7, this is normal. The plugin cannot work without this version. What version of bukkit do you use ?
Check the "warning" in the top of the main page.
Same problem. Error while creating a portal. Contact an admin. PLEASE HELP!!
Yeah, sure. I was waiting for the recommanded build to be released to avoid making too many updates, as I have only few free moments to update my plugins.
I will see if I can update to the dev build.
Will this be updated to 1.5?
@Moddor9360
Could you please copy/paste the logs from the server console ?
Edit: you should see this sentence: "[CustomPortals] Error while creating a portal: " and then some lines (called "Stacktrace") that could help me to understand your problem.
Please provide them if you still need some help.
when i try to light a portsl it says "error while trying to fill customportal" Please help!
@S1lverK3y
Ok, thank you for the info. But the Bukkit RB is not released yet, I still have time to update ;)
Where do you get the number of broken plugins ? Is there any list somewhere ?
CustomPortals is Plugin #162 that broke with the latest Bukkit API changes. Please update it soon.
@SDurkee
Why ? Where did you create it ? In the overworld ? In the Nether ? What happened ?
Created a nether portal. Used it. Can't return home!
@niknea
I don't know how the plugin Multiverse work. But if it works with classic Nether portals, it should work. It depends on how it is implemented.
This plugin only allow to make Custom Nether portal, from any blocks and of any shapes. But if this plugin is based on the "normal" shape of the Nether portal, it won't work.
If you want to be sure, try it on a simple server with these 2 plugins and check if all is working fine.
