Crystal Caverns!
Crystal Caverns! adds new ores such as ruby and sapphire, along with items, blocks, tools and equipment built from crystal-themed materials for NeoForge.
What it does
New ores, including ruby and sapphire, appear in the world so players can find them while exploring. Alongside the ores, the mod includes a collection of items, blocks and features that extend the vanilla game without replacing its existing content.
Custom tools and equipment use new materials and carry unique abilities, giving survival players fresh challenges. Decorative blocks and pieces widen the options for building. The mod is published for NeoForge only, with a single game version, 26.1.2, and it runs on both client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
