New portal to the Nether.

Hello everyone. Me and Vox talked on skype about the problem with The Nether: Right now every other dimension requires that special way of getting to it (The one where there is a portal in the end and you make a catalyst to it and stuff (you know it)). Anyway, we figured out that The Nether does not have this feature, which kinda defeats the purpose of defeating the Ender Dragon before having access to the Dimensions. So me and Vox just went ahead and said "Well, the way you get to The Nether should just be the same as all the other dimensions (again with the catalysts and stuff).


So what do you think of it? Leave an answer on the poll.

I agree in all things with this post, however:
The End is very exclusive, I mean, you an only get to it from two places in the entire OW. So how do we get people to go there?
Increased Spawn rate of strongholds?
Or entirely new system too?

Dont worry, me and Vox have it all worked out. Scroll up a bit on the skype chat and you will see

Of course. But it doesn't make sense for it to be the odd man out.

I know, I know, Except when I download the last version of the mod, It'll get me confused, But! That's just me.

And that's why mods have wikipedia's. :3

Back in ADD we tried not to change much about the overworld. However, and pardon my ignorance of the skype thread, it seems that you want the end to be the first dimension.

Possibly you could have rare blaze spawners in the overworld providing you with a source of blaze powder. Then you find the stronghold, defeat the dragon (auto buffed due to a lack of potions) and then the Ender acts as a hub of sorts between the dimensions. You can gain all the new portal activators/materials in one way or another (or just the nether stuff if you want) and proceed from there.

Of course this would involve the removal of working netherportals and its up to you seeing as you know more about your mod than me

Yes. Me and Vox figured this out: There is a mob called an Ender Guard. His rarity is between Endermen and Skeleton-Jokey and he drops an item called Ender Key (or something like that). Now this item is placed in a special inventory slot along with all the catalysts (there will be 5 spots total). Now this Ender Key, when used you create a rift which teleports you to a stronghold (Either that or it's an infinite Eye of the Ender) and then you can start from there.

More like 5 spots next to each other at some place.

We need to make a launcher, otherwise we might no be able to use ordinary servers.
