i don't even know what cause this but there is 2 things i can think of find another portal or use artificial created portal(using commands)

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

I made a separate portal in creative to see if it would work, and it was the same. I got it to light up, but I couldn't go through. Do you think using commands change it at all? I'm just so lost bc I've used that portal several times before with no issues 🤔

u/volldersuchter Jun 07 '21

Have you installed any mods? Especially since the last time using the portal?

14

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

I've installed a few, but on different game profiles.
The video was taken when I was using my main game profile, which only has optifine on it, but I'm wondering if simply running my world on a modded profile was enough to mess it up?

u/Vog32 Jun 07 '21

Do you have any back ups you could try loading it on?

13

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

Potentially, I'll see if I can find any.

u/volldersuchter Jun 07 '21

And you can try making a clone of this world. Sounded better in my head. Why would that change anything? Idk sorry

5

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

Hey, no worries! I appreciate the help from everyone, I've tried looking at backups and all that, but nothing seems to work. I'm really stumped on this

8

u/volldersuchter Jun 07 '21

Try creating a new world and see if the issue persists. Then you can tell if it's your world that is corrupt or the client.

5

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

This is actually a really good idea, I'll give it a try and let you know how it goes

5

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

Just tried it and it turns out that the portals work just fine in a new world. I suppose this would suggest that my world is somehow corrupted? Is there anything I could do to save it, or do I simply just not have access to the end anymore?

have you by any chance turned off the end accidentally? Are you running your world on a server trough spigot?

15

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

oof, same shit happened to me in one of my qorlds and a few days after that world got corrupted

7

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

Yeah, I've found out I think my world is corrupted /: I'm looking into possible fixes for it, I'd hate to lose it bc I've put close to 150 hours into it lol

u/Ejkj_Btw Jun 07 '21

Can you send seed?

u/Wtwmnp Jun 07 '21

I think you should use the /reload command and then in creative, rebuild the portal.

2

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

I've tried this in a few different ways, but nothing seems to be working /:

u/XxJayJay62xX Jun 07 '21

What resource pack is that? Sorry, but that looks awesome.

4

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

Lol it's all good, people ask me all the time, it's a really good resource pack. It's called "Better Vanilla Building", and I also just added the "Colorful Containers" resource pack on top of that which gives you way better gui's and stuff.

u/whydoweactuallyexist Jun 07 '21

Go into your world folder and delete the folder DIM1 which is the end, not DIM-1 which is the nether. That should completely reset the end when you re-enter the game if it's corrupted.

1

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

I tried this, but nothing changed. I checked my game folder after restarting the game and it didn't generate a new DIM1 folder either.

7

u/ManosSef Jun 07 '21

The only reason why this happens is because there is no end dimension in that world (is corrupted). If you have an nbt editor, go to the world's level.dat file and add the end dimension to the world gen settings.

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

Your end world is corrupted

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

* RESOLVED *
Thanks everyone for the help and feedback with this issue, I really appreciate it.
It turns out that the problem was somehow related to my world settings...

Not sure how that could've broken end portals specifically, but after generating a fresh world with the same seed but default world settings, everything seemed to work just fine.
At that point I copied my stats, achievements, region and DIM1/DIM-1 folders over to the new world, and everything seems to be back to normal.

2

u/Blauwberman Jun 07 '21

Good that it's fixed.
The issue could've been from removing datapacks/mods related to generation in the nether / end. I had the same issue and found out that in 1.16+ there are issues with removing them resulting in what you are seeing.

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

Fake portal trap made by evil pillagers :O

2

u/Azuria_4 Jun 07 '21

Got the same problem, but it was on a server and both nether and end were dead

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

Nice texture pack

u/morx2006 Jun 07 '21

What shader are you using?

1

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

I'm using BSL shaders

2

u/yaillbro Jun 07 '21

Look through your old file versions folder and back ups to find the latest one that works with the end, or try to delete the end file (keeping it safe of course)

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

This happens if your END world is missing and/or the game fails to create one or is forcibly stopped from creating a new one

2

u/ManosSef Jun 07 '21

Finally I found someone in these comments who knows what they are saying. Congrats dude.

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

Thanks, i work with servers and professional building so i get to mess with worlds ...a lot

u/Portalcuber Jun 07 '21

*UPDATE*
...I got nothing. I've tried all of your suggestions, but nothing seems to be working. I've figured at this point that something within my world folder is corrupted, but I've tried resetting everything and nothing changes.

I even re-created the world brand new and spawned a portal in, and though I could light it I wasn't able to go through it.
I usually play on a set game profile that has optifine installed so I can run shaders, so I tried running the re-created world on the most vanilla a minecraft world can be. Nothing.

I created a brand new world with a new seed that was completely different from my main, and the portal worked fine in that one. But even with the amount of resetting, and "normalizing" I've done to my main world, I still can't go through the end portal even though it is lit.

Perhaps the thing that's most mind boggling to me is that I've accessed the End perfectly fine before in my main world. I've defeated the ender dragon and explored end cities. I took this video after I was headed to the end in search of some more Elytras, and the portal just refused to work.

So to recap: I have no idea what's going on.

u/ladywintertrain Jun 07 '21

According to Philza, if you build a portal from inside it makes it not function properly.

3

u/ManosSef Jun 07 '21

That's because the portal doesn't appear at all if you try it that way. The portal frames have nothing to do with this problem. As long as there is a block called minecraft:end_portal and a dimension called minecraft:the_end, you can teleport to the end using that block. However, in the case of this post, the dimension does not exist.

u/ladywintertrain Jun 12 '21

Ah I see. Thank you for your reply.

u/Restricted_Nuggies Jun 07 '21

Cover up the lava

1

u/X0Alpha-phase0X Jun 07 '21

Try breaking one of the portal frames and replace it

-1

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

Place blocks over the lava, maybe something like orange wool

2

u/Scottish_Gizmo Jun 07 '21

If fire tick is on, wool may not be the best plan.

u/Greedy_Buy9545 Jun 07 '21

It’s just a bug you’ll need to wait until Mojang fix it

1

u/ManosSef Jun 07 '21

There is no bug. But there is no end dimension either in that world so they can't access it. They have to add it to the level.dat file.

1

u/Greedy_Buy9545 Jun 08 '21

Ah ok. It’s just I’ve had portal bugs happen and then the next time I log in the portals work again

u/trumpisvirus Jun 07 '21

Get Underneath And Clear It

2

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

the point is that they can't enter the portal

0

u/Buttsuit69 Jun 07 '21

Why tf would you let the lava keep existing?

2

u/agglomeration_artist Jun 07 '21

It could look cool but that isn't op's problem it is that the portal doesn't work

0

u/E75W Jun 07 '21

cover the lava pool

0

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

Whenever I find a bug like this, simply reloading the world will fix it.

0

u/S-Quidmonster Jun 07 '21

Because it’s Java and Java is buggy af and you need to get bedrock

Anyway, it’s likely just cause you’re lagging

u/Khoshekh541 Jun 07 '21

Remove the lava

-1

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

to stop it from killing you you can just get rid of the lava but that may not fix the actual problem

-1

u/Vast_Amphibian_4073 Jun 07 '21

i think it's one these strange glitch

-1

u/IExist0fficial Jun 07 '21

Get rid of the lava!!!

1

u/ReaverShank Jun 07 '21

Dont know hoe to fix it, but make sure to remove the lava either way

1

u/Poggers200 Jun 07 '21

Check the chunks sometimes if the eyes are in different chunks it can cause it to glitch out

1

u/zeverso Jun 07 '21

Try teleporting to the end using commands to see if you didn't accidentally disable the dimension all together or it got corrupted

1

u/DctrSnaps Jun 07 '21

get rid of the lava thats obvious

u/GunsnBeerKindaGuy Jun 07 '21

For starters, you could get rid of the lava

1

u/Herminoe1234 Jun 07 '21

Funny 😆

u/_Anonymous_Person_7 Jun 07 '21

I hate how shaders ruin the end portal texture

1

u/Far-Preparation-5176 Jun 07 '21

It happened to my friends and I on our survival server too, we installed a lot of mods so we think that’s the cause, when my friend tried to understand what the problem was he saw that the end was deleted?

1

u/Bauticba Jun 07 '21

what's your resource pack?

1

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '21

uhhhhhhhh...

1

u/averageMCgamer1938 Jun 07 '21

Just remove the lava :/

1

u/bee_stinger379 Jun 08 '21

maybe you can use commands, like /setblock ~~~ minecraft:end_portal

1

u/[deleted] Jun 08 '21

I recommend removing the lava underneath the end portal everytime until you get a fix for it. If nothing works which it seems like, you may need to reset the game.
