GemsCraft adds new colorful Gems to Minecraft to enhance your mining experience. You can find:
Topaz
Amethyst
Sapphire
Ruby
Pyrite
Black Diamond
With these, you can craft Tools, Armor, Storage Blocks and more. Press this little button (at the end of my post) if you like the port, of course - all credits goes to Domi1819 for making this mod possible in the first place.
Update:- 1.6.4 UPDATE!
A nice video with stuff from v1.6 (A bit outdated )[video][/video]
The colored Gems can be only found naturally, up to 25 blocks above the Bedrock layer.
Pyrite is generated up to 50 block above Bedrock,
Black Diamonds will only spawn in the nether, 20 blocks above (the lower) Bedrock layer.

Ore breaking rules
Using Black Diamond altars to transmute Gold, Diamonds and Black Diamond:
Black Diamond blocks can be lit (don't worry, they won't get destroyed) Lit BD blocks are material enchanters. You can enchant 2 Gold ingots into 1 Diamond, but 6 hearts will be taken as tribute. This also works with 2 Diamonds, they can be enchanted into 1 Black Diamond, but you have to give 8 hearts to the altar.
Special BD abilities
Currently some tools have special abilities. Black Diamond swords can set mobs on fire when it is rightclicked on that mob. Black Diamond Pickaxes, Shovels and Axes can auto-smelt blocks with a rightclick on that block. Currently supported are Stone, Cobblestone, Iron Ore, Gold Ore, all 4 types of Log, Sand and Clay. Keep in mind you need the tool that fits best to use auto-smelt (like you cant smelt a piece of sand when using an Axe)

The Mod itself is compiled using srg names, so it might be compatible with future versions of Minecraft.
[DEPRECATED]1.4.7 Users:I've made a special 1.4.7 version with all integration plugins enabled, which also features RedPower integration! You can use my gems for Sickles and Saws. Link Removed
Don't stop reading! In case you want to switch between mine and Redpowers gems, craft an Exchanger! (4 obsidian in the corners, 1 ruby in the middle, 4 gold in the spare slots). It exchanges Rubies or Sapphires when rightclicked.If you don't want RedPower's Rubies or Sapphires generated, make sure to also download this Link Removed. It needs to be placed in your coremods folder as it overwrites Redpower stuff.For all Sphax users: Link Removed for the latest 1.4.7 Sphax BDCraft patch.
Installation:

Bukkit:(Should work)For use on a bukkit serverGet MCPC (Link above). Put GemsCraft-XX.zip into the mods folder. Delete "world". Create a new Batch file with "java -jar .jar nogui" to start the server.Since Minecraft 1.4.7, thanks to the incredible work of bloodshot, MCPC Mods no longer need to be ported! Give him a hug for that! (http://www.mcportcen...hp?topic=4657.0) MCPC was made possible by many people. I want to say thanks to all MCPC team members!Why don't you visit their website? http://mcportcentral.co.za If you want to edit the ID's (not recommended for MP usage), you can find the config at /config/gemscraft.cfgIf you play with custom ID's, you should ask server admins for their configs
Modpack Info:
First, I don't mind if you include my mod in your pack. The only thing you have to do is providing a link to this topic, and you're fine. It would be nice if you sent me a link to your pack. I think every modder who disallows his mod in a pack sucks. If you don't agree with my opinion it's not my problem.Also read the license information!
