LS Ores and More

by LightSpeed255

Players who want new ores with iron-like or diamond-like stats can add LS Ores and More, a Forge and NeoForge world generation mod for 1.20.1 and 1.20.4 that adds ores, tools and a biome.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverApache License 2.01.20.1 – 1.20.4

What it does

The mod adds new ores, items and tools to the game. Two ores have iron-equivalent stats: one trades efficiency for durability, the other trades durability for efficiency. Super Uranium and Powered Iridium are upgraded forms of Uranium and Iridium, and both reach diamond-equivalent stats. Its author states the goal of keeping the additions close to the vanilla feel and balance.

Iridium Valley is a new biome where Endermen spawn often, and Iridium generates more commonly there. The mod also adds music discs tied to the new biomes. Its tools are made with Uranium and are useful for mining, though they are costly to craft. A spear is available through crafting and allows quick combat at medium range.

LS Ores and More runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It requires no other mod. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, under the Apache License 2.0; the code is not open source, so the license does not make it open source. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 1.20.4.
