by Lunakibby

What it does

The mod targets a generation problem that appears in modpacks with added nether biomes: nether ores may not appear there. Fixing it also restores nether quartz and nether gold ore spawning as a side effect. Netherite Tweaks can additionally raise how often netherite appears on average, even in worlds without the biome issue. Most netherite still generates around y=16, and it can also spawn between y=8 and y=24. Builds are published for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 – 1.21.8. Both the client and the server need the mod, and it is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 4.0 license, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Nether ore spawn fix

    Restores netherite ore generation in modded nether biomes where it would otherwise be missing.

  2. Quartz and gold restored

    Nether quartz and nether gold ore spawn again in the same biomes as a side effect of the fix.

  3. Adjustable netherite frequency

    Netherite generates more often on average, between y=8 and y=24, with y=16 as the usual peak.
