 * Nether portals send you to different plaes in the overworld according to where you are in the Nether. My proof is here. Also, use |this this button to make a new comment. ×Meeples10× 21:01, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Pocket Edition
So, I know that you can enter the Nether in Minecraft PC. Apparently, the Nether Reactor Core only works on the Pocket Edition. Can you enter the Nether in Pocket Edition. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 99.90.59.161 (talk)&#32;05:33, 10 July 2013(UTC). Please sign your posts with


 * No; in PE the Nether Reactor replaces the Nether dimension. Supposedly there are plans to remove the Nether Reactor and replace it with something else in the future, but I haven't seen this confirmed by anyone at Mojang. -- Orthotope talk 08:34, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Worst lag
So I just got into the Nether, it lags really badly for awhile, then the game crashes. Why? Phoenixx 14:39, 21 July 2013 (UTC)


 * This may be because your :OS folder (Windows) is/is almost full. If not, try using + to reload chunks (Windows), and/or changing your render distance. Meeples10 signature.png ᐸ Talk  Contribs  17:20, 21 July 2013 (UTC)



Stuff in the portal
What is the purple stuff inside a nether portal called? Can I find it in the stuff in my inventory in creative mode?


 * Stuff inside: in-game, it is called Portal. You can't find it in your inventory because it is a technical block. You can get it by using this command:

Nether Achievement
The achievements for entering the nether have different descriptions, titles, icons, prerequisites, and versions. So shouldn't they get two separate tables since the only thing the same is the actual requirements? The main reason I'm asking is because in order for Template:Achievements to support this one case, it would take almost twice as much code. --KnightMiner (talk 23:38, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * So, for those interested in the double length code, see My Red Sandbox. --KnightMiner ( talk 03:45, 14 May 2014 (UTC)


 * And I've added the function, because of unanimous agreement in this topic. It also is being used in a few other cases. --KnightMiner ( talk 22:22, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Tweet from tomcc on 4/22/15
I don't see why my edit was reverted regarding the tweet Tommasso tweeted on April 22 showing a photo of the Nether in PE. It has already appeared in a development version, so how is it exactly violating MCW:FUTURE? --MarioProtIV (talk) 16:43, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

MCW Future
Hi ,

The only criteria for future content is, it must "have appeared in development versions" and must be marked as upcoming.

"Content added in future updates may be added to the article in the main content, provided the features are marked using upcoming and have appeared in development versions. If the update contains major changes to the article, then the content may be noted as a subsection of a main section, or as its own section called Upcoming. Upcoming features must be noted as well in the history section using the proper upcoming header. Upon the release of the update, all content that is now outdated must either be moved to the history section or removed, and any usage of upcoming may be removed."

In the edit summary from your recent revert, you referenced another revert from a time when that content didn't pass the "development versions" criteria, before 0.12.1 build 1. But now it does pass; the stuff appears in development versions. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 15:11, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Section in Trivia is wrong as of 1.9
As of 1.9, you can no longer go to the End without visiting the Nether, as villagers no longer sell Eyes of Ender and Blaze Rods/Powder cannot be found outside the Nether.

Tried to change it myself but the lag is too bad. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Htth (talk • contribs) at 04:10, 21 February 2016 (UTC). Please sign your posts with


 * Thanks, good catch! Did it.  – Sealbudsman talk/contr 19:16, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

If I'm having to ask, it means something's wrong with the article.
Just to clarify, if I try to reset the Nether on my world in 1.9.x by deleting the DIM-1 folder, will that delete all man-made buildings in the world, or just in the Nether for that world? Like I said, if I'm having to ask, then something's wrong with the article. Rockatoa, Brickticks out! Brickticks (talk) 01:03, 8 April 2016 (UTC)


 * It just resets the man-made changes in the Nether.
 * Phrasing your questions in a less accusatory, confrontational, dramatic way would be nice. You come across half the time as if you're trying say "this wiki is supposed to be perfectly answering all my particular questions already, why aren't you guys doing your jobs" and it's really unnecessary. We are already eager to update and improve any page that needs it, without needling and prodding. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 01:35, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

Magma block
Could someone add magma block to The Nether? I trid to add it myself, but it kept screwing up the table. -75.179.18.235 23:40, 30 June 2016 (UTC)


 * The last item on the table needed a  at the end to close off the table properly. - Sonicwave  ( talk &#124; c )  00:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
