Teleport Animation

Cinematic GTA-style teleport transitions

Minecraft 1.21.1
NeoForge 21.1.235

Teleport Animation brings cinematic, GTA-style teleport transitions to Minecraft. Every time you use /tp or /teleport, instead of an instant cut, the camera smoothly zooms up into the sky, glides across the world, and descends back to your destination — creating a seamless and immersive traveling experience.

Features

  • Cinematic camera animation — the camera zooms out, travels above the terrain, and zooms back in on arrival
  • 3-stage zoom heights — fully configurable pull and push stages for the zoom effect
  • Per-dimension settings — separate zoom heights for the Overworld, Nether, and End
  • Custom sounds — distinctive sound effects for each animation step
  • Step flash overlay — subtle screen flash at each zoom stage
  • Chunk-by-chunk mask fade — terrain fades out and in following the camera’s direction of travel
  • Player freeze — optionally freeze movement and look controls during the transition
  • Full configuration — every parameter adjustable via in-game config screen or .properties file
  • Cross-dimension support — configurable, with special fallback for dimension changes

Integration

Works seamlessly with:

  • Waystones — delayed teleports with full animation
  • JourneyMap — intercepts teleport requests and plays the animation
  • Sodium — schedules terrain updates to reduce visual glitches
  • Iris Shaders — automatically uses hard terrain cut when shaders are active
  • Distant Horizons — adjusts near-clip plane and terrain rendering
  • Bobby — integrates for smoother chunk fade
  • Leawind’s Third Person — preempts and restores third-person camera

Commands

  • /gtp on|off — toggle the teleport effect
  • /gtp status — check if the effect is enabled
  • /gtp player_freeze on|off — toggle player freeze during transitions
  • /gtp — open the configuration screen
