Ore Chunks
by Maclane
Ore Chunks is a Forge world generation mod that makes ore scarcer, so players must work for resources in the world.
What it does
Ore Chunks raises the difficulty of a game by making resources harder to find. Ore deposits are reduced to chunks that have to be smelted before they yield usable material, and a set number of smelted units is needed to create a full item. The mod also works with added deepslate ores and other stone-type blocks, and it covers diorite and granite. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Forge is the only loader, with files for 1.18.2 and 1.19.2.
