Silent im pretty sure this works om ps4 but does it because i just made double zombie farm and soon drown farm but that farm is far away from my house and it would be nice if i can put nether portals linking to it
I have a question. I got this bug that wherever i put a portal it links me to the same portal and doesnt create another one. so in a sense i can create a portal thousands of blocks away from my house,go through it, when im in the nether i just go through it again then it ends up in my portal at home. its kind of like cheating to be honest
It was mentioned elsewhere in the comments, but the Y coordinate is also taken into effect. The y coordinate needs to be matched if the portals still aren't linking. Great tutorial, I'ts good to have a comprehensive Bedrock one!
silentwisperer I have a super serious bug with the nether portal. I was entering my house in the overworld from the nether, but according to my gf the chunk my portal was in hadn’t loaded. From my perspective, I was stuck on the loading screen that says building terrain. Anyways, I had to force close my game. When I loaded back into my world, I was in a village 3k blocks away that I had slept in, with a completely empty inventory and xp bar. There was no trace of my items or xp anywhere either, and my gf got there way faster that 5min. I don’t know if I glitched into the void or something, but I do know that this game is broken af. I don’t know what caused it or what fixes it, my only guess is that i had used that portal dozens of times in that play session. I don’t know how to submit a bug report, and if you did it would get more traction anyways, so please do so!
#YCoordinateMatters If you have multiple portals close to each other linking in ways they shouldn't, try matching the Y coordinate with the correct overworld portal.
If I have two portals in the overworld separated by only y coordinate do I have to make them 128 blocks apart (y) in the nether? To make them be two entry and exit points?
I literally had no idea there were any maths behind the portals until just now. I'm so going to go check my portal in the nether now to ensure it's in the right place lol. Thanks SW
To make it short. Get the coordinates of the portal in the overworld (ignore the height coordinates) then divide it by 8. Go to the nether in that coordinate. Make a portal then there you go. I copied this from a guy name momonja because his comment helped me alot and i want to help others. Some people cant understand becuz english is not their first language. I hope i helped u too.
Thank you so much for this video! My game randomly transported me while going into the nether. It randomly put me about 30 levels from the roof causing my character to suffocate. This helped me get back home. Thank you again!
silentwisperer It is a pain, before I found you everything on farms, and such, were either from 5 year olds with bad mikes or from updates a year or 2 ago.
I'm migrating from Java to Bedrock and I was quite surprised that there was no F3 Screen. But you've just shown in the first few minutes how to get the Coordinates. Thank you! I'm subbing :)
I love this pig-man guy ALMOST EVERY TH-camr of Minecraft does Java tutorial and your the only one I find that do bedrock tutorial so I love your vids bro keep it upp😁
Y coordinate 100% matters. Just that there is no factor of 8 involved. If you create 2 stacked portals at same x/z coords in both nether and overworld with one set at y=20 and other at y=60 they will link perfectly. Have to take this into account when trying to create shortcuts to nether where the vertical difference on overworld is similar to the horizontal difference in overworld and the nether elevation is closer to either end. Sometimes have to deliberately skew one or both to ensure links work as intended.
Omg because of your video i learned that you can download your realm enable coordinates and reupload it and it will still have coords and achievements working. This will be so much easier than breaking all the nether portals and making a new one.
I'm on mcpe and the best I have right now is a double spawner (skeleton and zombie) xp farm, drop rates are decent, probably because it is in a snowy biome, too.
this earnt a like and subscribe! minecraft tutorials are usually confusing or don’t work for bedrock but finally i found a channel that is neither! keep up the amazing work! can’t wait for more great content!
I was looking for a more recent video cause I wasn’t sure if the 1.17 update would mess up linking, but then I couldn’t find one so I went to you who’s tutorials are really good, and in like 5 minutes I linked my portals
This works with the new caves and cliffs world generation too if anyone is curious! Portals are super bugged in the test version, I tested this so I know it works!
Thank you so much for making bedrock videos!!! Also thank you for keeping this video to the point. I always hated how shoddy the nether portal placements work on bedrock, so I love having this new knowledge about the game. However I'm not entirely sure what I'd use so many nether portals in such a small area for lol I'm stoked to be a new sub and to watch more of your videos.
Thank you SO MUCH I have always wanted to connect my nether portals, and everyone else’s tutorials have either been in java Edition or in a early version. Thank you again, for being the ultimate bedrock tutorial guy 👍
xD perfect! Was getting so annoyed how the overworld portals go to the same spot in the nether, but taking the same portal back will bring you in a random spot
This is the most concise instruction I have seen on how to link portals for shorcut transporting! Thank you very much. I always have trouble with portals being one-way.
Make sure your portals are oriented on the correct axis; so a X axis portal in OW becomes a X axis portal in Nether and same goes for Z axis portals - this only really matters when you have portals VERY close to each other. If u have a portal in your house and a portal 30 blocks vertically down on the Y axis then if X and Z are an exact match you are gonna have to use the Y axis to compensate....tricky but doable...you'll need quick elevators to make things manageable.... Also, if your very first Nether Portal doesn't match exactly, then correct it in the Nether as silent said. For a SECOND portal within a close local area in OW, build the portal in OW first, note the coordinates and do the maths - then travel to Nether using FIRST portal and build the corresponding SECOND portal in the Nether and THEN travel through SECOND portal...repeat for 3rd, 4th and so on for portals in a close local area (like a big base for example). For distant portals (e.g. a distant mushroom island), start the whole process again. This can sometimes fix portals that refuse to link correctly but isn't always the case...
@@Cobra_Scythe Havent played in years so I may be not be 100% accurate. If you are talking the horizontal plane of the portal (the bit you step into) then because portals in the later updates could be made a lot bigger than originally then I guess it could matter. It really only matters though for portals that are VERY close to each other in the Nether where the game has to round values +/- when you have values that are not EXACTLY divisible by 8..... in these cases depending on the rounding values by the game you can get results that are REALLY hard to work out and correct - HTH
But what causes multiple overworld portals to be linked to the same portal in the nether (as shown in your guardian farm video)? Also how does height affect portal linking exactly? These mechanics are still so mysterious and unreliable.
Maybe the portal in the nether is the most recent one, that happened to my portals once. I never really linked the portal but the 3 portals in the overworld was linked to the most recent made portal in the nether
I know this comment is old, but from my testing, height won’t affect portal linking, the multiple over world portals only linked to the one nether portal in the nether is because there’s only one portal within a certain area in the nether. If you were to build multiple portals in the nether, the overworld portals would link to those.
Nether portals will search for a portal in a certain radius and if they don’t find one, they will generate one somewhere. So all the overworld portals see the single nether portal and teleport players there. The reason you should link nether portals to the exact coordinates (when not building farms etc) is because that is where the search starts. So a portal will always start searching at its coordinates and if there is a portal there, it will use that one.
Been playing this game for like 8 years and just now learning about this. God dammit. So many abandoned projects due to musical portals and i never once ever stopped to check if the coordinates were actually lined up in both dimensions...
I’ve been struggling to make this portal thing as I’ve got a multiplayer game, and in videos people just say device 8 and make no specific explaining and for me that’s dead confusing but this I actually understand! Thank you! :D
YOu are a GOD. I’ve struggled so many times on my survival sky base to get my nether portal working and now I don’t have to use the main one that my friends use down in the storage room nether portal.
Your method (which is what I use too, btw) works because you make simplifying assumptions: You only used 4 x 5 portals, you picked a block to base your calculations on, and there was plenty of unobstructed area on the nether side to generate a portal in. But keep in mind that the game can't make these assumptions. The portal you're coming from can be any size up to 23 x 23, there's no particular portal block within it that's favored for doing the calculation, and some of them could correspond to obstructed destinations while others don't. On top of that, there may already be a portal somewhere on the other side. The game is supposed to link to it if it's close enough, but close enough to what, exactly? Again, there's no favored block for calculating the destination, and different blocks can correspond to different destination blocks. There could be zero, one, or even multiple portals close enough, depending on which block you calculate from. I'm not faulting your tutorial--like I said, I use the same method. I'm just saying that the game has to do a lot more work than you did to find or generate a portal on the other side, and I don't think there's a perfect algorithm that works best for all cases. So calling it a bug seems a bit unfair.
Yes, the game has to do a lot more work, but it is still ridiculous what it considers "close enough". Once I 've built 2 overworld portals that were about 1000 blocks apart and both linked to the same portal in the nether. It gives me the impression that the game is "lazy" to create new portals in the nether.
@@mather468 It's doing what it's supposed to do. When you activate a portal, the game searches for a portal in the opposite dimension up to 128 blocks from the calculated position. That includes searching 128 blocks in the *Nether* when you build one in the Overworld. If it finds a portal 127 blocks away in the Nether, it will link it. But the Overworld portal that one was already linked to could be up to 1016 blocks from where you built your newest portal. You don't have to settle for that though. Just go to the Nether, to somewhere closer to the calculated position, and build a portal there. It will link back to your new Overworld portal, and the two pairs of portals will then be separated. Rule of thumb: It's generally easier to get your portals linked the way you want if you build the Nether side and let it generate the Overworld side.
demonstrating how you would link multiple portals in close proximity is genius. Most people just link two and leave it at that, raising doubt whether it would work if other portals were set up nearby.
question: so if the coordinates in the overworld are divided by 8, if I get x.5 or less I build at x, and if the decimal is more than 5 I build the portal at x+1 right?
Damon Long I found out that the portal in the overworld or nether will send you to the nearest when divided or multiplied respectively by 8 of its coordinates so as long as theres no other portal nearby the linking will be succesful.
I have a couple portals in close proximity in the nether (not even as close as Silent in this vid) divided x and z by 8 and everything properly and it works fine going from nether to overworld but both overworld portals always bring me to the same nether portal 😕 Edit: Fixed it! One of the portals was a couple of blocks higher than the other and I moved up the lower one to be one the same Y coordinate and now they link properly
This doesn’t really explain it, how do I get my portals to go to different places? Currently every portal leads to the same area with portals in the nether, and going through either of them takes me to one specific portal in the overworld.
Thank you for taking time to make this video silent. This saved me so much trouble with my guardian farm. Instead of traveling away I was able to place another portal right on my platform above the guardian portals. They drop into kill chamber and I spawn 20 blocks above and never have any issues with my portals
Ok so I followed the tutorial, and the portals work when going from nether->overworld But takes me to the wrong protal when going from Overworld-> nether, Help?
I have a similar problem but in the opposite direction. Going to the nether is fine but getting to right portal in the overworld doesn't work. And the portals are not that cool over 40 blocks in the over world I have other portals much closer working just find its so upsetting because as far as I can tell I did everything right..
Yeah, bedrock is on 1.11, and java gold farms will never work on bedrock. However, i do actually already have some designs for bedrock ones, check out my tutorials playlist:)
I have 3 portals that keep linking with each other and are within less than ten blocks yet they link to the wrong portal. I have tried everything in the video and have tried for hours and they still drop me off at the wrong place
I feel your frustration, I too am getting screwed over.. The devide by 8 rule dosnt work for any portal anywhere on my game. It must be a glitchy save or something broken about my game... extremely vexing
I didn’t know the eating into a nether portal glitch, I was in the over-world at 13,000 for my coords, I ate while going through the portal and went 13,000 blocks from my portal on the x-coord, and 7,000 in the y! (in the nether) I lost all of my diamond tools, armor and loot, I haven’t been on that world since, I was destroyed
Hehe that is one of little things works in Java and Bedrock: the coordinate system for portals :) The Major secret for me is always putting the portals on coordinates integer divideable by eight like 16 or 24, not 20. The 128 range for near nether portals sometimes is a pain in the ass. The 8 secret worked for me in sigle player always, but in 2 ocasions, a new nether portal was generated, in overworld, little near home, but far than 12 chunks. I have tons of portals, some of them little closer in nether and the difference between those is only "Y". And the 8 secret works fine :)
Thank you so much! I wish I saw this before I sent all my villagers to the nether. Now I have to move them to another spot. Minecraft truly does like to make us do extra work
I was sent here by a member of "Minecraft for Adults!" on Facebook who claimed all their portal woes were remedied. That's why I gave a like before I even have watched. I'm expecting to become a master by the time we're done here.

question: so if the coordinates in the overworld are divided by 8, if I get x.5 or less I build at x, and if the decimal is more than 5 I build the portal at x+1 right?
Hi there, were u able to resolve this issue of rounding up or down with a decimal place as ive still not got a ckear answer yet :-(
Damon Long I found out that the portal in the overworld or nether will send you to the nearest when divided or multiplied respectively by 8 of its coordinates so as long as theres no other portal nearby the linking will be succesful.
Thank you silent, all your vedios helped a lot but this one saves me from rebuilding the entire village breeder. Nice job and keep it up!
I have a couple portals in close proximity in the nether (not even as close as Silent in this vid) divided x and z by 8 and everything properly and it works fine going from nether to overworld but both overworld portals always bring me to the same nether portal 😕
Edit: Fixed it! One of the portals was a couple of blocks higher than the other and I moved up the lower one to be one the same Y coordinate and now they link properly
My god. I have spent hours trying to figure out what the problem was with my portal, and you just fixed it. Thank you so much, I appreciate it
@@josx-x7672 lol! Glad I can help. I remember how frustrating it was trying to figure that out and it was such a simple fix the whole time.
This was so helpful I’ve been wandering what to do for a while
This doesn’t really explain it, how do I get my portals to go to different places? Currently every portal leads to the same area with portals in the nether, and going through either of them takes me to one specific portal in the overworld.
yeah same
@@KashTheKingYT did you break your original portal in the nether?
Thank u great video :)
Ah, dammit, cornovirus made me forget all my maths.
Your completely right
stronk %100
Thank you for taking time to make this video silent. This saved me so much trouble with my guardian farm. Instead of traveling away I was able to place another portal right on my platform above the guardian portals. They drop into kill chamber and I spawn 20 blocks above and never have any issues with my portals
I ate in the nether portal, but found a HUGE nether fortress, so it was a good thing in the end
Hehe, well, i guess some good can come from it xD
How does the nether portal taste like?
wow, this is hands down the best portal linking tutorial i ever watch
Ok so I followed the tutorial, and the portals work when going from
nether->overworld
But takes me to the wrong protal when going from
Overworld-> nether,
Help?
Did you find a fix?
PunchguyYT no
@@NathanRGraff frick I have the same problem
I have a similar problem but in the opposite direction. Going to the nether is fine but getting to right portal in the overworld doesn't work. And the portals are not that cool over 40 blocks in the over world I have other portals much closer working just find its so upsetting because as far as I can tell I did everything right..
Yeah I think I have the same problem. When I find a cool place in overworld and build a nether portal it just takes me to my first nether portal.
Thank you so much, I spent an hour trying to link my portal and had empty portals all over my world but you helped me do it instantly
Can you do a gold farm for bedrock edition ?
@blackdiamond 0075 I want a gold farm for bedrock edition
nico 02
Bedrock isn’t on 1.14
Yeah, bedrock is on 1.11, and java gold farms will never work on bedrock. However, i do actually already have some designs for bedrock ones, check out my tutorials playlist:)
Thank you soon much for this tutorial! Finally watched it. My confusion will hopefully cease with portals!
If I watch this and find out that some Java strategies do not actually work on Bedrock, imma be a little annoyed that I never knew
I love the idea behind using the nether to connect the overworld. I just want some new updates for the caves and nether, or a new dimension
had a mod back in the day called the aether it was a dimension like heaven with floating islands
The Nether is like the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, but with space instead of time.
Hmm, kinda I guess except you don't get stronger from a year of training.
Yup just divide your overworld coordinate for X and Z and create the portal in the nether and bam! Back and forth reliably. Thank you for this!
Imagine minecraft link portal perfect that will make life so much easy
And generate them in the middle of the blocks
@@player-hw7pe exactly
This helped a lot. ALL the other tutorials didn't explain it for me. tanks
Happy to help out 😊
I have 3 portals that keep linking with each other and are within less than ten blocks yet they link to the wrong portal. I have tried everything in the video and have tried for hours and they still drop me off at the wrong place
Are u finding that the 3 portals uve created in the overworld still taking u to the orgional portal that was created in the nether? I am :-(
I feel your frustration, I too am getting screwed over.. The devide by 8 rule dosnt work for any portal anywhere on my game. It must be a glitchy save or something broken about my game... extremely vexing
Try saving the games folder on files, deleting Minecraft, than reinstalling it
This is great! This guy gives us perfect tutorials for bedrock edition without the boring stuff!
I try :D Glad you enjoy
How do I link it like 100+ blocks away from the original portal
This worked like a charm!!! Thank you so much!! I’ve been scratching my head at this for like an hour???
Doesnt work for me
I actually ignore the decimals
Im too lazy but it still links very well
legend for bedrock players. love ur content!
I feel like silent is xisuma and tango tek combined for bedrock.
First comment! Love your videos; you deserve more support and recognition!
Calm down
Nobody needs to care about being first:) just being here is enough lol 💕
I didn’t know the eating into a nether portal glitch, I was in the over-world at 13,000 for my coords, I ate while going through the portal and went 13,000 blocks from my portal on the x-coord, and 7,000 in the y! (in the nether) I lost all of my diamond tools, armor and loot, I haven’t been on that world since, I was destroyed
I love bedrock channels
I still though it was 3 times smaller like in the old pocket edition days.
Thank you man for helping me with this tutorial, i really find it usefull cuz i was having portal problems, this video helped alot
I had made a portal near the end portal. I then went in and came out thousands of blocks away! tThough i was not eating.
Paromita Choudhury that happened to me recently too
Mate. You are the best, I am so lucky I found your channel. Cause I am a bedrock player.
Yes!!!!!
Ur a legend mate. Thanks for sharing this with all us bedrock players.
How to get the chunk texture pack like it if you agree
Zapton 303 what
Hehe that is one of little things works in Java and Bedrock: the coordinate system for portals :)
The Major secret for me is always putting the portals on coordinates integer divideable by eight like 16 or 24, not 20.
The 128 range for near nether portals sometimes is a pain in the ass.
The 8 secret worked for me in sigle player always, but in 2 ocasions, a new nether portal was generated, in overworld, little near home, but far than 12 chunks.
I have tons of portals, some of them little closer in nether and the difference between those is only "Y". And the 8 secret works fine :)
Thank you so much! I wish I saw this before I sent all my villagers to the nether. Now I have to move them to another spot. Minecraft truly does like to make us do extra work
I was sent here by a member of "Minecraft for Adults!" on Facebook who claimed all their portal woes were remedied. That's why I gave a like before I even have watched. I'm expecting to become a master by the time we're done here.
Thank you so much for this i left a comment asking about this on the Guardian farm video and you made a video on it! Thanks!:)
Great video!!! Really helped, always wondered why close portals bugged out and when only back to one!
