The original, and still the best, MineCraft transportation solution!
An expansive yet intuitive sign-based portal system designed with player creation and usage in mind.Highly immersive, robustly capable, deeply configurable, and easily expandable!
Stargate is actively undergoing a complete rewrite.
Until superseded, development on legacy versions (0.X.X.X) will be slow.
For more information on the rewrite, please see this link; to become an alpha tester, please join our Discord.
As a stop-gap until the rewrite is ready, this page presently distributes a "legacy" channel.
The legacy build is simply a maintained fork that contains all features from all other known stargate forks!
A full migration service will be available when the rewrite releases; you will be able to import your legacy data.
NOTE: The features showcased below correspond to a legacy release.
This information will be replaced once the rewritten version produces a public release.

Background
(Click to expand)
- This plugin was originally TheDgtl's Bukkit port of the Stargate plugin for hMod by Dinnerbone.
- After this plugin was dropped by TheDgtl, PseudoKnight began maintaining it for modern versions of Spigot (adding support for UUIDs & Material Strings).
- EpicKnarvik97 forked that version to clean up the code, added leash support, and improved vehicle support.
- LockedCraft and LittleBigBug also forked that version to add underwater and tag support, as well as a few bug fixes.
- The current legacy release combines all the forks above, and is maintained by the Stargate Rewritten project.
- As total rewrite is forthcoming, these legacy versions are (for the most part) in maintenance-only mode.
Installation / Migration
(Click to expand)
Installation and migration should be drag-and-drop.
- If there is a "Stargate" directory, SG will migrate its contents, configurations, and data into a new format.
- In theory, this migration script should support all known post-drakia (i.e. UUIDs & String-Based block IDs) stargate forks.
- If you run into any problems, please post an issue report or ask about it on discord.
- In theory, this migration script should support all known post-drakia (i.e. UUIDs & String-Based block IDs) stargate forks.
- If there is no "Stargate" directory in your Plugins folder, SG will create a fresh install.
