[1.16.3] Custom Ore Generation

[isaiah0311]

From what I've seen, ore generation has changed from 1.16.1 to 1.16.3. Can anyone point me in the right direction for solving this in 1.16.3? A link to a tutorial or a repo with an example I could look over maybe. Anything helps.

 

Thanks in advance!

First, you need to register a ConfiguredFeature into a vanilla registry. A feature can have multiple placements now and their order does have an effect on how they spawn. After you registered one, you attach the feature within BiomeLoadingEvent with the provided generations builder.

Hi Champion,

 

do you have example code? I have made a custom block for testing ("Opal Ore"  ), and it works (in creative). Now I want it to be generated, when I start with a new world - probability between gold and diamond -, but it seems that all tutorials are written for older versions and they don´t work for 1.16.3 and higher. Or I am not doing it right....

 

So it woul be great, to get a code example. Can you post something?

 

Thank you very much!

And so? A tutorial will not be written for everything you want to do. This is why you must inspect what I said and deduce how to use it. You're already given the event needed to attach the feature to a pre-existing biome. Now what you need is a ConfiguredFeature, which the class Features should provide many examples of.
