No Diamond Ore

by NightML Studios

No Diamond Ore removes diamond ore from world generation, so players have to find their diamonds some other way.

What it does

Diamond ore no longer spawns in newly generated terrain, which turns diamonds into a scarcer resource for players who choose this challenge. The mod works through world generation, and files cover 25 release versions 1.18 – 1.21.9 for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with a data pack option for server platforms. Only the server has to run the mod, while players may leave it out. The code is released under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.

Key features

  1. Diamond ore removed from generation

    Diamond ore does not spawn as veins in the terrain, so the ore must be found through other sources.

  2. Challenge-focused design

    The mod is built for players who want a harder survival run without changing other ore types.

  3. Data pack option

    A data pack build is available for servers that prefer not to add a loader-based mod.
