Ay's Overworld Quartz
by Andreyovsky
In Ay's Overworld Quartz, quartz ore generates in the overworld's stone layers, so players can collect the material without a trip to the Nether.
What it does
Quartz ore generates in the overworld within six different stone variations, so a quartz source can be found while exploring ordinary caves and cliffs. Compared with the Nether, the ore spawns less often and in smaller batches. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and it is published for Forge and NeoForge with files for 1.20.1, 1.21.1 and 1.21.8. Ay's Overworld Quartz is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
