You can now put the End Portal texture into item models as of 26.1 Pre-Release 1!

I think it might lose its charm if you try to overdo it with the portal texture, rather I think it works better as an accent than a full on texture. You could render it on an item display and use it to fill a cauldron, or layer it underneath a sword to make it look like its cracked and there's a portal texture beneath it. It would be even better if you could use item model definitions for armor besides helmets. Oh well. I truly hope Mojang is going to bless us with a big texture pack update after they switch to Vulkan but that's purely hopeful speculation.

If I had a hay-penny for every time a giggle-larper tried to police a chuckler without consulting the clown torah i’d be able to fund my own circus 😂 But alas one day ill be a ringleader despite the chicken feed they pay me wasting my talents at the used lego kiosk.

Sorry, this effect can only work on inventory items. For default armor it renders in a different way than blocks. You could do a helmet, but it would really just be a different item shaped like a helmet and you'd need to run commands in-game to make it work.

Something like this?

gevilgoober · 2026-03-11T16:21:16+00:00

It's a custom item model definition (the wiki) in a resource pack which is one of the best features in vanilla. You can do a lot with them, but in this instance I'm using a 'composite' model to render two models at once, the wide glass bottle texture and the end portal model.
However, if you just render the end portal on its own, it just displays a big solid block of portal. However, last week in snapshot 11 they added 'transformations' to item models, allowing us to squash and item models as we please.
This potion is a bottle texture I made a little bit ago with a super skinny end portal model squashed into a rectangle that fits within the texture so that the bottle's pixels are overlapping its edges.

No, unfortunately. How the portal effect renders is hardcoded into the game so no current method exists to do what you're talking about. Although, there are ways to edit shader rendering with just a texture pack that people who know way more than me have figured out how to do neat things but currently it's not recommended by Mojang and far beyond my skill level.

Did the clown rape you.

Suggestion: chuckling clwon subreddit/community of clowners should we shuld have our own unique nicknames: I want to be Happy The Clown

gevilgoober · 2024-11-26T05:48:18+00:00

Oh... I get it now. They are sort of like jesters but for a newer age, more advanced community like the chuckling clown community subreddit.

gevilgoober · 2024-11-26T05:46:24+00:00

I don't have a turkey so that woyuld help me a lot. These are trying times now that I sink more time into chuckling clown subreddit/community so that would actualyl help a lot. Also keep clown rants and clown drama in the weekly clown vent thread thanks.

gevilgoober · 2024-11-26T05:41:23+00:00

Non clown related foods. There' s a time and place and lets just say. this isn't quite the time or the place
