Gemstones From The Depths
by LoJaymez
Gemstones From The Depths adds a Depths dimension with new biomes, ores and blocks, along with gear crafted from its materials.
What it does
The mod opens a separate dimension called the Depths, where players find new ores, biomes and mobs. Lightroot Forest is a biome that exists only in the Depths and contains a new wood type. Lightroot wood gives off light, so it lights up the surroundings in dark areas. Dark Depths is a barren wasteland with almost nothing in it except a few fossils, while Gemstone Quarry is a biome whose spawning mobs make mining more demanding.
The most common new ore in the Depths can be crafted into Rezite blocks used for building. Another ore found deep in dark biomes is used to make Sculk water before it is crafted. Depths ores are fairly common, like iron, and can be made into tools and armor. Jade, the rarest ore in the game, is used for the strongest armor and tools, and it has magical properties. Ore bunkers and Depths-crafted blocks add further building material.
Gemstones From The Depths requires Geckolib. It runs on the client and the server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with version 1.3 as the latest file for each loader, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
