📋 About This Mod
Kevkas: I have reached out to atducey and he was kind enough to give me permission to upload the port I made of his mod. I've ported version 1. 4 which is the version I had been using, before he added the Portal gun and other extra stuff, version 1. 4 was perfect in my opinion, worked as expected and didn't go beyond the initial scope of the mod.
The description is the one that v1. 4 had, and I recreated the original screenshot and added a few of my own (you can find the original screenshot in the Images section if you are curious). I happened to keep a local copy of v1. 4 for my own use so the mod is as it was back then, I won't be updating it so don't ask me for additional stuff as I didn't create it, I'm just sharing my port with you with his permission.
Please visit the original mod page comments section if you have questions.
All credit goes to him for creating it in the first place. Enjoy.

Version: 1. 4. 1
Two spell tomes are found on Farengar's desk which will give you the ability to cast a light portal and a dark portal. They both shoot projectiles that when they hit will make the appropriate portal. Walk into one, you come out the other. They both take a bit of time to charge before you cast them, this was done to detract people from using them in combat as they were designed to be used out of combat.
This can be used as a Mark/Recall spell, to get home and such from dungeons.
Other uses up to you. They last forever until replaced.

New version. In celebration of the video, and to address the weakness outlined therein, projectiles can now be portalled. However, they come out going the same direction they went in with. Unfortunately Bethsoft's engine is not like the Havok used in Portal, and I can think of no way to have the portals rotate to match the surface that they are stuck upon.
Incidentally, you too now come out of portals going the same direction you went in with, eliminating the problem of winding up portalling directly into a wall.
Now you can have ever more Valve-y fun by jumping off of cliffs into your portal. Go Sailing the Skies of Skyrim!

This is a port of the classic Skyrim mod Portal - Dynamically Placed Teleportation to Special Edition. It adds two spell tomes on Farengar's desk that let you place linked light and dark portals for out-of-combat teleportation, functioning as a Mark/Recall system. The port is based on version 1.4, which the porter considered perfect, and is not being updated.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted port with 572 endorsements and over 11k downloads, so it's proven stable.
- Simple and effective Mark/Recall mechanic that works exactly as described.
- Faithful to the original v1.4, which the porter considered the best version before extra features were added.
⚠️ Cons
- No longer updated, so don't expect fixes or new features.
- Portals are intentionally not combat-friendly due to charge time, so not for combat teleporting.
- Potential compatibility risk with mods that alter Farengar's desk or add spells to his inventory.
For Skyrim SE players who want a straightforward teleportation spell without fast travel or complex magic mods. It's perfect for roleplayers who want a Mark/Recall option for getting home from dungeons. Skip if you need combat teleportation or want a mod that's actively maintained.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Grab the spell tomes from Farengar's desk in Dragonsreach to get started.
- Use the portals to set up a permanent home base and recall point.
- Since the mod is a port, make sure you're on Skyrim Special Edition, not the original Skyrim.
