About this project
What does Base Gems add?
Base Gems is an add-on for Base Metals that gives you a few more reasons to go caving. There are 33 gems to find, and where you look makes a difference. You might come home from a trip through the upper caves with agate and amethyst, but if you’re after rubies or sapphires, you’ll want to go deeper. Black diamond is the one to look for near bedrock.
What you do with your haul is up to you, you could turn a few gems into tools or decorative blocks, or take them to a smith and see what they'll give you for them. Smiths buy and sell gems for emeralds, and the more experienced ones deal in rarer stones. You’ll get XP as you mine, and you can bring a Fortune pick for a bigger haul or use Silk Touch if you’d like to keep the ore block itself.
I wanted room for both the more Minecrafty recipes and packs that lean towards realism. High Fantasy is the default, so if you fancy making a door out of rubies, go for it. If that sounds a bit much for your pack, Low Fantasy takes out recipes like gem doors, gears and tools while keeping the mining, trading and gem processing. You can change it under Mods → Base Gems → Config or from OreSpawn’s Mods list. Restart after changing it, and use the same setting on the server and client if you play multiplayer.
Getting started
Use Minecraft 1.10.2, Java 8 and Forge 12.18.3.2511 or later for 1.10.2. Put Base Gems and its two required mods in the mods folder on both the client and server.
If you’re adding Base Gems to a world you already play, head into new chunks to find the ores. The Base Gems wiki has more on where to look and how to change the OreSpawn settings.
