Find Diamonds
by Raigos
Find Diamonds, a Fabric utility, highlights exposed diamond ore inside a scan radius so cave explorers can spot it from farther away.
What it does
The client scans the area around the player at a set interval and marks diamond ore that has an open face. The search radius is configurable from 8 to 64 blocks, and the scan frequency is set in ticks. Each discovered diamond is wrapped in particle effects, so the ore stands out in a dark cave.
Dimming reduces the brightness of other light sources, while the glow intensity of the diamond highlight can be raised to 200 percent or lowered to zero. Both values run from 0 to 200 and from 0 to 100 percent, so the look can be tuned to the player's own screen. Pressing G switches the whole effect on or off instantly.
Find Diamonds is a client-side only mod, so only the player's game needs it. It is built for Fabric and covers the single game version 1.21.11, with its latest file dated 2025-12-27. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license and is not open source.
