Have you looked into Rwtema's Dense ores mod? He dynamically makes the textures for the dense ore variant from the base texture.

https://github.com/rwtema/DenseOres

I have been looking at that. Hopefully I can get things working soon.

Hey B0b, just notifying you that Raj, Hermy, Beanxxbot and Blkdragon112 are going to be using this mod in the WeAllPlayPack!

lol so many packs

what can we say it's the most useful and balanced way to get ores

Haha well I do try. Balance is the most important thing.

Hey B0bGary, nice mod but... its a bit problematic with tps management - ive made a quite big piston farm, one segment build in pattern:

RPoEAEoPR

oPoEAEoPo

oooEBEooo

oooGoGooo

where

R is RedNet cable, P is piston, E is your reed, o is cobblestone, A is air, B is Conveyor belt from MFR, G is your growing block

Segments shares one of its wall, there are about 9 segments in one axis, repeated about 129 times in second axis - farm is cuboid with dims 130x130, surrounded by cobblestone. And there broblem with tps begins - 5 layers of differend reeds (Ive build one for iron, diamonds, gold, ender pearls and redstone) makes horrible lags (ive put farm in Nether, guarded by ChickenChunk's chunk loader ) - when ive destroyed chunk loader and leaved Nether, after few minutes everything was fine. Any ideas, except building smaller farm or many distant small ones, how to ged rid of those lags? Opis pointed many TileEntities, most of them were reeds?

Firstly, I'm impressed that you built a farm like that. Secondly, the reason why it might lag is because the reeds are TileEntities. This lets them store extra data, in this case the growth stage. This allows me to create reeds that take longer to grow than ordinary plants. A small level of lag would be expected, but probably not in the scale your saying. I'll investigate into ways to reduce this lag. The thing is, if you built the same thing using say Thermal Expansion redstone furnaces, it would lag in the same way. I'm not quite sure how to fix it, but I will definitely look into it soon.

Mr.Bobgary my friend is against using this on our heavily modded server due to the possibility of the mod not accessing the OreDictionary. Would you please confirm that I am right that it uses the OreDictionary?

Yep. It uses the Ore dictionary to find the items used in crafting the reeds and the output items. It also won't add the reeds unless there is a material available.

New update coming soon!

The update will hopefully fix the lag caused by reeds, as well as adding support for every ore ever !!!1one11!1!

Hey - I'd like to request permission to use your mod in my pack that I am creating.

- I will be uploading it to ATLauncher and Curse

- I will not directly be making money off your mod by not putting any items in donor kits, although I will have to be getting donations to the server I will have on it, since I can't pay for hosting with no money

- I will leave a link to this forum in the description of the pack

Sounds cool! Have fun!

@B0bGary can we please get an update for 1.8 :/ ty

Maybe. A lot of things changed in 1.8 and broke alot of mods. When I'm finished with the 1.7 update I'm working on I'll think about it.
