About this project
What does Advanced Finders add?
"Advanced Finders" is a mod that transforms your mining experience by adding specialized ore detection tools that make locating valuable resources faster, easier, and far more rewarding. Whether you're exploring deep caverns or tunneling through solid stone, these finders eliminate the frustration of missing ore deposits hidden just out of sight - ensuring you never overlook a valuable vein again.
The mod is designed for players who want to reclaim time spent on tedious ore hunting while maintaining the thrill of discovery. Instead of mindlessly strip-mining or hoping to stumble across deposits, you'll have intelligent tools that guide you directly to nearby ores and deep underground veins. This transforms mining from a monotonous grind into a focused, purposeful activity where every expedition yields results.
Advanced Finders works seamlessly in multiplayer environments, allowing you to see ore detection data from other players' finders in real time - turning solo mining into a collaborative effort. The mod is fully customizable, supporting most popular resource-based mods out of the box while offering the flexibility to add custom ores for any mod you play with.
