I tried creating my own FillerBlockType and my custom ore won't generate. My plan was to have my custom ore (hematite) surrounded by iron ore. Can anyone help me? Here's my code below for the ore generation:

 

package com.theunknown.andraxxus.world.gen;

import com.theunknown.andraxxus.AndraxxMod;
import com.theunknown.andraxxus.util.RegistryHandler;
import net.minecraft.block.BlockState;
import net.minecraft.block.Blocks;
import net.minecraft.block.pattern.BlockMatcher;
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.ConfiguredPlacement;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.CountRangeConfig;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.Placement;
import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.event.lifecycle.FMLLoadCompleteEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.registries.ForgeRegistries;


@Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = AndraxxMod.MOD_ID, bus = Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus.MOD)
public class AndraxxOreGen {

    public static  OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType END_STONE = OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.create("END_STONE", "end_stone", new BlockMatcher(Blocks.END_STONE));
    public static  OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType IRON_ORE = OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.create("IRON_ORE", "iron_ore", new BlockMatcher(Blocks.IRON_ORE));

    @SubscribeEvent
    public static void generateOres(FMLLoadCompleteEvent event) {
        for (Biome biome : ForgeRegistries.BIOMES)   {

            if (biome.getCategory() == Biome.Category.NETHER) {
                genOre(biome, 14, 22, 4, 111, OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.NETHERRACK, RegistryHandler.HEMATITE_BLOCK.get().getDefaultState(), 0);
            } else if (biome.getCategory() == Biome.Category.THEEND) {
                genOre(biome, 14, 22, 4, 111, END_STONE, RegistryHandler.HEMATITE_BLOCK.get().getDefaultState(), 0);
            } else {
                genOre(biome, 14, 22, 4, 111, OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.create("IRON_ORE", "iron_ore", new BlockMatcher(Blocks.IRON_ORE)), RegistryHandler.HEMATITE_BLOCK.get().getDefaultState(), 14);

            }
        }

    }
    private static void genOre (Biome biome, int count, int bottomOffset, int topOffset, int max, OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType filler, BlockState defaultBlockstate, int size)  {
        CountRangeConfig range = new CountRangeConfig(count, bottomOffset, topOffset, max);
        OreFeatureConfig feature = new OreFeatureConfig(filler, defaultBlockstate, size);
        ConfiguredPlacement config = Placement.COUNT_RANGE.configure(range);
        biome.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Feature.ORE.withConfiguration(feature).withPlacement(config));
    }
}

My bad, I'm totally sorry, I just sorta barged in here desperate for a solution. Also thanks for the help, I will try this!

Also, where is my mod ID going, and do I have to repeat the ore generation cod for iron ore, and then the hematite ore? How do I generate the iron ore? 

 

I know I sound dumb; I'm super new to modding and just started learning last week and I don't know any Java other than what I've learned so far (which isn't a lot)

 

Also this is 1.16.1 btw
