Depths and Ores
by MeowMe0w
Depths and Ores is a Forge world generation mod that adds new ores, a second dimension reached through a portal, and a set of mobs, bosses, armor and tools.
What it does
New ores generate across the overworld, and the mod also places Sphene and Rutile in the Nether along with Ilmenite. Titanium can be crafted into armor and toolsets, and a Depthrite material is found in the depths for its own armor and tools. Medicine potions and a half-plate chestplate round out the equipment side.
The mod adds a dark dimension that lies past the End, reached through a Nether Portal style gate. Its surface holds Depth Stone and Dark Depth Stone, which can be turned into Depth Stone bricks and a dark variant. Mobs include the player-sized Depth Stalker, which attacks on sight and drops Depth Bones, and the fast-charging Depth Crawler, which drops a Depth Eye. End Folk never want to trade and attack once hit, and small buildings scatter across the End. Endium and Endium Infused Titanium Block are used to build the portal frame.
The mod requires Forge and runs on the client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is published for 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, and the latest Forge file is 3.0.0 for 1.20.1. The mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source. It was made with Mc Creator and includes two paintings by Kristoffer Zetterstrand, the painter behind the paintings in the main game.
