Emeralds Galore

by Dashy22

Emeralds Galore changes how emerald ore and zombie villagers drop emeralds, using a datapack that adds loot tables to the game.

What it does

Emerald ore and deepslate emerald ore yield more emeralds when broken, with fortune counting toward the total. Zombie villagers also sometimes drop emeralds when killed, and their other loot is left in place. The changes are delivered as a datapack, so it is installed inside a world or on a server rather than as a client mod.

Only the server needs the datapack, while players may join without anything installed. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with snapshot builds included, and the latest file targets 26.2. The code is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Boosted emerald ore

    Emerald ore drops 2-5 emeralds when broken, instead of the single emerald it gives in vanilla.

  2. Boosted deepslate emerald ore

    Deepslate emerald ore drops 2-7 emeralds, making the deeper variant the richer source.

  3. Zombie villager loot

    Zombie villagers drop 1-3 emeralds on death, and their other drops remain in the same place.

  4. Fortune support

    Fortune enchantments raise the number of emeralds from each broken emerald ore block.

Do players need Emeralds Galore installed?

No. Either side can run the datapack, and players can join a server running it without installing anything.

Which game versions does Emeralds Galore cover?

What the author says

Simple datapack that increases amount of emeralds from emerald ores and makes zombie villagers sometimes drop emeralds on death. I was mining emerald ore and thought that it was pretty disapointing that a ore so rare gives just 1 emerald per block broke(not counting fortune). Emeralds themselves are not hard to get…
