Sliders technology

"What if you could travel to parallel worlds? 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!
