Resource Nether Ores
by Morthen
Resource Nether Ores puts vanilla-style ore veins into the Nether, and the ores follow the textures of the active resource pack.
What it does
The mod adds a Nether dimension ore set that generates in veins, with the vein size and amount per chunk set in the same way as vanilla ore generation. Its textures respect the resource pack a player has enabled, so the ores match the look of the pack in use.
A x32 and a x64 resource pack ship with the mod and are added to the resourcepacks folder for players who want the matching textures. The mod is client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Its files cover 1.20 – 26.3, and it requires Fabric API and Resource Library.
Key features
Nether ore generation
Ores generate in the Nether dimension using the same vein size and per-chunk amount rules that vanilla ores follow.

The ore textures follow the resource pack that is currently enabled, so the look changes with the pack.

How it compares
Resource Nether Ores is client and server and open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.20 – 26.3 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Skniro's Nether and End Ores also runs client and server and is open source under the MIT License, but it adds ores to the End as well and covers 1.19.4 – 26.3 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Block Veins is server-side only and published for Forge and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, so players can join without installing it.
