Disable the Portal Overlay Effect
What This Mod Does
No Nether Portal Overlay Mod removes the swirling purple visual effect that appears when you stand inside a Nether portal block. By default, Minecraft displays a full-screen overlay with motion blur and particle effects—this mod eliminates that entirely.
How It Works
Once installed, the mod is active by default. You don't need to configure anything. The next time you walk into a Nether portal, you'll notice the disorienting purple screen is gone.
What Still Happens
The portal will still:
- Transport you to the Nether (or Overworld)
- Play portal sounds
- Show the loading screen if needed
- Allow you to open inventory and chat while standing in it
Only the visual overlay is removed. The teleportation mechanic works exactly as normal. This is especially helpful if you're sensitive to motion blur, flashing effects, or frequent portal travel that causes nausea or eye strain.
