"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!
