Portal Mod Portal 1 Blocks Resource Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Why can't I find any of the Portal 1 blocks in my inventory?
This is a resource pack rather than a standalone mod, so it does not add new blocks on its own. You must have the main Portal Mod active in your game, as this pack only repaints the custom blocks from that mod.
Why do my test chamber blocks still have the default Portal Mod textures?
Open your Resource Packs menu in the game settings and make sure this pack is moved to the active right-hand column. Place it at the top of the list above built-in mod resources so its classic textures are not overridden.
Which wall and floor blocks get changed by this pack?
It repaints all lunecast and blackplate blocks to match the darker industrial style of the first game. This also includes the overgrown mossy variants of the blackplate blocks for building decayed test chambers.
Does this pack restyle chamber doors and fizzlers too?
Yes, both chamber door and fizzler blocks are updated to fit the older visual theme. Their inventory item icons are also changed to match the new block textures so they look consistent in your hotbar.
How does this pack affect puzzle platforms?
It restyles the sides and bottoms of platforms from the Portal Mod so they look like the original puzzle panels from the first game.
Will enabling this pack change normal Minecraft blocks in my world?
No, it only replaces textures for the specific custom blocks added by the Portal Mod. All vanilla Minecraft blocks and items from other mods will keep their normal appearance.
Do the classic textures change how portals or fizzlers work?
No, all puzzle mechanics and portal placement rules are still handled entirely by the main Portal Mod. Switching to this pack is purely visual and will not break any existing test chamber setups.
Does a multiplayer server need this pack installed for me to use it?
Because it only changes block textures and item icons, it works completely on the client side. You can enable it in your own resource pack menu on any server running the Portal Mod without affecting other players.
Can I use this alongside another Minecraft texture pack?
Yes, you can run it together with any general resource pack since it only targets Portal Mod blocks. Just keep this pack higher in your active load order in case your other pack includes textures for modded blocks.
Is it safe to turn this pack on or off in an existing world?
Yes, toggling the resource pack at any time will not remove placed blocks or harm your save file. Your lunecast, blackplate, door, fizzler, and platform blocks will simply switch back and forth between the classic and default Portal Mod styles.
