[Solved][1.14.2] Custom Ore Generation

[NickDerMitHut]

Hello, I wanted to make a mod for me and my friends again, last time was in 1.8 I think so im not really experienced in modding, and I started searching up tutorials for 1.14. I wasn't suprised that I didn't find any since 1.14.2 is still quite new. I did find one for 1.13.2 which worked quite well. I made an ore with the fitting ingot and the Tools for it.(No recepies right now). Then I watched the tutorial for custom ore generation and it didn't work. I couldn't import the CompositeFeature and MinableConfig, I have found the equivalent class to import of MinableConfig on this website https://gist.github.com/williewillus/2dfc945b7b7fdb69cc3ff830072d22fe but I still don't know what to write instead of MinableConfig and still haven't found the new equivalent to CompositeFeature. It would be awesome If someone could help me to get this to work in the nether and the normal world. If you want to look at the code I mean you can see it at 5 Minutes.

I'm just adding a "me, too", as I am attempting to port the SimpleOres mod.

Try checking your DefaultBiomeFeatures Class, it will probably have what you need.

Like I said Im new to modding. I did search in the class and tried out some things but no Result.

[NickDerMitHut]

PROGRESS! Okay thanks to @HyCraftHD(YT Comments) and @Kaelym searching in the DefaultBiomeFeatures Class did eventually help.

I only got it working for the overworld though so it would be great if someone could fiddle around with it to get it working in the nether/end/other dimension.

I've made an OreGeneration class that looks like this:

Spoiler

package nick.cockmod.world;

import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biome;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.GenerationStage;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.Feature;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.OreFeatureConfig;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.CountRangeConfig;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.Placement;
import net.minecraftforge.common.BiomeManager;
import nick.cockmod.blocks.cockBlocks;

public class OreGeneration{
	public static void SetupOrGen() 
	{
	BiomeManager.getBiomes(BiomeManager.BiomeType.WARM).forEach((BiomeManager.BiomeEntry biomeEntry) -> biomeEntry.biome.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Biome.func_222280_a(Feature.MINABLE, new OreFeatureConfig
			(OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.NATURAL_STONE, cockBlocks.cockore.getDefaultState(), 8), Placement.field_215028_n, new CountRangeConfig(1, 0, 0, 16))));// Count, MinHeight, MaxHeightBase, MaxHeight


}  

}


 

  

 

I found this OreGen Class by @LTNightshade and edited it so it'd work with 1.14.2

 

The public static void SetupOrGen() can then be "called" in the setup function in your main class.

Spoiler

	private void setup(final FMLCommonSetupEvent event)
	{
		OreGeneration.SetupOrGen();		
	
		logger.info("Setup method registered");
	}

 

I realy hope a dimension implementation isn't too hard to pull off.

Nether Ore Generation works now thanks to  @MrTroble. He helped me a lot on the HyCraftHD Discord, and spent quite a lot of time to find out how the things work.

My OreGeneration class now looks like this

Spoiler

package nick.cockmod.world;

import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biome;
import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biomes;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.GenerationStage;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.Feature;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.OreFeatureConfig;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.CountRangeConfig;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.Placement;
import net.minecraftforge.common.BiomeManager;
import nick.cockmod.blocks.cockBlocks;

public class OreGeneration{
	public static void SetupOrGen() 
	{
	BiomeManager.getBiomes(BiomeManager.BiomeType.WARM).forEach((BiomeManager.BiomeEntry biomeEntry) -> biomeEntry.biome.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Biome.func_222280_a(Feature.MINABLE, new OreFeatureConfig
			(OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.NATURAL_STONE, cockBlocks.cockore.getDefaultState(), 3), Placement.field_215028_n, new CountRangeConfig(1, 1, 1, 16))));// Vein/Chunk Count, MinHeight, MaxHeightBase, MaxHeight


}  

	public static void SetupNetherOreGen() 
	{
		Biomes.NETHER.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Biome.func_222280_a(Feature.MINABLE, new OreFeatureConfig
                (OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.NETHERRACK, cockBlocks.cockore.getDefaultState(), 7), Placement.field_215028_n, new CountRangeConfig(8, 10, 10, 128)));
}  

	
}


 

  

 

so I made another "public static void" called it SetupNetherOreGen. Inside of that Mr.Troble found out how to change the biome to the Nether

biomes.NETHER.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Biome.func_222280_a(Feature.MINABLE, new OreFeatureConfig
                (OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.NETHERRACK, YOURBLOCK.getDefaultState(), 7/*MaxOreVeinSize*/), Placement.field_215028_n, new CountRangeConfig(8, 10, 10, 128)));// Vein/Chunk Count, MinHeight, MaxHeightBase, MaxHeight

The of course add it to your setup function in the main class and it should be working for the nether

private void setup(final FMLCommonSetupEvent event)
	{
		OreGeneration.SetupOrGen();		
		OreGeneration.SetupNetherOreGen();		
		
		logger.info("Setup method registered");
	}

For the end I used a costume feature to replace the 1.13 MinableConfig

(See attachments)

 

And then added the Feature to the biom using the following line!

 

Feature ft = new MinableFeature(MinableConfig::func_214641_a);
Biomes.THE_END.addFeature(Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Biome.func_222280_a(ft, new MinableConfig(Blocks.END_STONE.getDefaultState(), Blocks.GRASS.getDefaultState(), 30), Placement.field_215028_n, new CountRangeConfig(100, 0, 0, 200)));

 

I hope this helps all of you!

 

Cheers

Thank you very much, the both of you, for helping to solve this problem.

I am getting an error on the "new CountRange()" part of the code, the error says 

[devguydan]

Hey does anyone know if these methods will work for 1.15? I am new to moddding as well, but have created a basic mod with a special ore, resulting ingot, and block, that works. However, I am struggling to get the custom ore to generate in the world. I think the stuff I have been going off of are too outdated (1.12), but this gives me hope, being 1.14. Does anyone know a good place to find how to insert custom ore generation in the over world in 1.15? I’ll try this stuff when I get home and update if these methods do indeed work for 1.15

Hi Dan, I'm in the same boat as you. Trying to find a working custom ore generation for 1.15. It seems some things changed from 1.14 and you won't find a lot of the classes matching the names and fields used in the above examples.

 

I spent some time looking around and seemed to have found a solution that works.

 

Here's what I found to work so far:

 

for(Biome biome : ForgeRegistries.BIOMES )
{
  CountRangeConfig myCustomOrePlacementConfig = new CountRangeConfig(/*frequency per chunk*/  2, /*Min*/8,/*Offset*/ 8,/*Max*/ 22);
  biome.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Feature.ORE.withConfiguration(new OreFeatureConfig(OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.NATURAL_STONE, ModBlocks.myCustomOreBlock.getDefaultState(), 4)).func_227228_a_(Placement.COUNT_RANGE.func_227446_a_(myCustomOrePlacementConfig)));
}

 

Put this in the Preinit function (normally called setup(final FMLCommonSetupEvent event) in the Forge example mod ) or you can also place it inside a method in a separate OreGeneration class and then call it from setup.

 

If anyone has any corrections or better suggestions than this then definitely please let me know!

Check for 1.14 https://github.com/yanny7/BronzeAge/blob/master/src/main/java/com/yanny/age/bronze/subscribers/ModEventSubscriber.java#L53-L60

For 1.15 https://github.com/yanny7/BronzeAge/blob/1.15/src/main/java/com/yanny/age/bronze/subscribers/ModEventSubscriber.java#L53-L60

Thanks so much, will give this a go

    }
}

Tried this, but unfortunately, withConfiguration is not a function in my case. Note sure why yet.

 

Ok turns out mine was "obsfucated" still? instead of withConfiguration I have func_225566_b_. Anyone know why this happens?

withConfiguration is also not a function for me. I'm using Forge 1.15.2 - 31.1.0

Make sure your mappings are up to date.

Yes, either find the func_... function that matches the signature, or update your 

mappings channel: 'snapshot', '....'

 in build.gradle
