BLOAT: Monster Ores
by Ninebaal
BLOAT: Monster Ores adds new ores that drop items from mobs, such as rotten flesh, ghast tears and ender pearls, while players explore caves.
What it does
The mod adds a number of new ores to the world, and each one drops items taken from mob drops like rotten flesh, ghast tears, ender pearls and glow ink sacs. Those items are meant to give caving more to find and to put common mob loot to further use. The ores are generated as a world feature, so a new world or an existing chunk gains them as it generates. BLOAT: Monster Ores is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players can join a server without installing it. It is built for Forge and targets 1.20.1 alone, with the latest file, 1.2.5, published on 2025-03-17. The code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal and is open source.
