About this project

What does Gem Ores add?

Overview:

Adds new naturally generating ores for each gem type (Diamond, Emerald, Ruby, Topaz, Sapphire, Voidstone, and Zephyr). These ores come in all soil variants (Stone, Basalt, Slate, Shale, Sandstone, and Volcanic Rock) and can generate anywhere between y=1 and y=70, but most of them are found below y=20. Each ore drops one gem of its type.

Ore generation stats (for each gem ore type):

  • chance of generating per chunk: 75%
  • minimum number of veins per chunk: 4
  • maximum number of veins per chunk: 7
  • minimum number of ores per vein: 1
  • maximum number of ores per vein: 5

This pack doesn't remove the normal generation of gem blocks in air pockets underground; it just adds a new way to obtain them.

The ore generation stats can be manually changed by modifying the CustomOreTypes.xml file located in the Ore_Gen folder inside the mod zip file (GemOresV1.0.zip\Ore_Gen\CustomOreTypes.xml).

If you have any idea that you would like to see in this mod, please leave a comment!

REQUIRES OreGenLib to generate the ores!!
