Ruby Ore
by Kakaunet
Ruby Ore, by Kakaunet, adds ruby ore to the world and a set of ruby tools and armor for players who dig it out.
What it does
Ruby ore generates in the world, and a deepslate variant of the ore appears in deeper layers. Players dig out the ore and the block itself to collect ruby items, which are then used to craft the mod's equipment.
Ruby armor covers the helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots, and a ruby sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel and hoe complete the set. The mod is built with MCreator, and the author thanks the MCreator creators in the project text.
Installation runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Both the server and every player need the mod, since the environment is client and server. Files exist for 1.20.1, 1.21.8, 1.21.9 and 1.21.10, and the latest files are for 1.21.8 on Fabric, 1.20.1 on Forge and 1.21.10 on NeoForge. The license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0, so the mod is not open source.
