Venior
Venior is a NeoForge content mod that places new underground ores in the world and adds refined materials, armor and tool tiers for players to craft and use.
What it does
The mod adds many new ores that generate underground. Their placement is set through JSON biome modifier entries, so world generation can be adjusted per biome. Drops fall into twelve resource types grouped as ingots, gems and dusts, and every tier yields its own set of equipment.
Each tier provides helmets, chestplates, leggings and boots, along with swords, pickaxes, axes, shovels and hoes. Items use 2D sprites in the inventory, while armor uses custom 3D layers and tools have their own held models. A custom creative tab groups the new content, and English language strings are included. Installation needs NeoForge only; the mod is published for 1.21.1 and 1.21.8, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.8 as the latest file, under All rights reserved.
Venior runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is not open source, and the license is All rights reserved. Players who want to read the source or fork the project will find no open code to work from.
