EMI Ores

Easily view ore generation information from inside EMI.

EMI Ores is a plugin for the recipe viewer EMI that displays information about how ores generate in the world, including:

  • Y-level distribution
  • Vein size
  • Vein count per chunk
  • Biome restrictions

The mod is required on both client and server in order to function; if present on only one side it will silently disable itself.

Owing to the fact that this mod gathers its data from data pack configured/placed features, modded ores should display correctly without additional configuration in the vast majority of cases.
