New ores & Equipments
by Nightmareaxd
New ores & Equipments adds silver and platinum ores to world generation, along with silver and platinum tools, armor and weapons for NeoForge.
What it does
Silver and platinum ores generate in the world between certain heights. Silver ore can be mined with an iron pickaxe, while platinum ore needs a diamond pickaxe. Silver ingots are used to craft silver armor, tools and a silver sword that deals 6.5 attack damage, with 850 uses and an efficiency of 6.5 for silver tools.
Platinum ingots are used to craft platinum armor. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Builds cover 1.20.6 and 1.21.4, with 1.1.3 for 1.21.4 as the latest NeoForge file, released in beta on 2025-03-18. It is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Silver ore generation
Silver ore spawns underground between heights 13 and 33, and it requires an iron pickaxe to be harvested.
Platinum ore generation
Platinum ore spawns in a deeper band, from Uranium depth up to height 0, and needs a diamond pickaxe to be harvested.
Silver weapons and tools
Silver tools and armor are crafted from silver ingots, and the silver sword adds 6.5 attack damage.
Platinum armor set
Platinum ingots are used to craft a full armor set for players who progress to the deeper ore.
