The same year, the same Earth, only different dimensions."_ **Slidersmod brings back the dimensional-exploration concept from the 90s TV series Sliders. This mod adds the iconic timers from the show into Minecraft, along with a set of blocks and gameplay mechanics designed to stay fully Minecraft-friendly! You’ll be able to explore completely random destinations — each with their own perks and dangers — for a duration you decide. Whether you take the risk is entirely up to you!** # REQUIRED MOD : - Mekanism (REQUIRED) - Immersive portals (= lot of incompatibilities with Immersive portal, especially Securitycraft !) OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED - In control ! OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED - Per Dimension Game Rules OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED - Patchouli OPTIONNAL BUT STRONGLY RECOMMENDED ** These 4 mods are actually REQUIRED BUT next update will make them optionnal ** # Mod Content • Immersive Portals integration The mod leverages Immersive Portals to reproduce a vortex effect as cool as the one from the series! • Crafting progression inspired by Mekanism Most recipes are built around Mekanism resources, ensuring the Sliders technology isn’t accessible too early in your playthrough. • Multiple custom dimensions Featuring a tier-based dimension system with spawn probabilities: - dimensions populated only by cats, - dystopian worlds where the Nether has conquered the Overworld, - worlds where time flows differently, - post-apocalyptic landscapes, ...and more! Some dimensions apply bonuses or dangerous penalties to the player — explore carefully! • Functional and damaged timers A working timer allows you to explore a random destination among many custom dimensions for a predetermined duration. But if you try to force an early return, you’ll damage your timer, sending you into uncontrollable jumps with random durations and random worlds! • Overheat system Use your timer too frequently and it will overheat, forcing you to wait before rolling the dimensional dice again. • Upgrade system A freshly crafted timer is unstable and unpredictable — upgrades can make it far more efficient: - reduced cooldown, - reduced overheat probability, - increased exploration time, - access to exotic high-tier dimensions, - ... and more! • Four types of timers Each with its own vortex style and special abilities: - Original Timer — the standard model. - Egyptian Timer — can track previously opened vortexes. - Exodus Timer — can store explored locations and return to them later. - Logan Timer — targets the Overworld exclusively (upgraded versions allow increasingly precise landing points). • Multiplayer-friendly utility blocks To make the experience richer in multiplayer: - Quantum Recall Station — open a return vortex on a previously marked player. - Proto-synchronizer — share exploration destinations with other players. - …and more to come. • Raid system Vortexes may spontaneously open and let through various “explorers”: villagers, wardens, or even your doppelgänger… Sometimes it’s an opportunity to get a timer the “easy” way! # PLANNED FEATURES Custom timer: a timer with a custom model/vortex/vortex rotation (almost ready) Bug fixes New dimensions (open to suggestions !)
