Silver Ores and Crafts
by Graclyxz
Silver Ores and Crafts adds silver ore to world generation, along with silver-based ingots, nuggets, blocks, tools and armor for 1.21.4.
What it does
Silver ore generates in the world, and mining it yields raw silver that smelts into silver ingots. Silver nuggets, raw silver blocks and silver blocks round out the material set, so the metal can be stored and crafted in bulk.
Silver is used for a full set of equipment: a sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel and hoe, plus a helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots. Because the environment is client and server, both the server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, all for 1.21.4, under the MIT License, and the source code is public.
