I need a mod that can help me more easier locate things like diamond & iron ore & ancient debris in my survival single player world (1.19.2 or newer) without spending huge amounts of hours burning through enchanted pickaxes. Must be Forge-compatible.
For examples:
An X-Ray mod would be perfect but I've searched around both here and on Curseforge and there doesn't seem to have been such a mod updated for many, many years.
I also used to use a "Prospecting stick" mod (for example craft a stick from diamonds, click it anywhere and it'll *ding!* if there diamonds anywhere vertically below you), which was later upgraded to a "Prospecting Ring" for 1.19.0 (passive always-on effect so no clicking necessary), but the author never seems to have abandoned it after that.
And back in 1.5 or 1.6 when I played with the IndustrialCraft pack, there was a Meter thingy that I'd put in my hotbar while mining, and it would glow when I got within a certain distance of a diamond (green, yellow, or red depending on how close I was);
The latter 2 aren't "cheaty" as X-Ray but still helpful, and at this point I'd take ANYTHING that would be a huge boon since Caves & Cliffs part 2 made diamonds so much more sparsely distributed, and in ores that take longer to mine thru; not to mention the hassle of finding super rare ancient debris in the nether which my world has a really crappy seed for (I cant seem to find solid land below y = 16, it's all lava ocean that deep)!
If you do can you make it work with 1.19.2? I just checked now and turns out some of the mods I use aren't updated to 1.19.3 so I won't be updating my world to current version any time soon.

i might make this but with a potion

yeah i only really make mods in 1.19.2 since a lot of stuff gets messed up in 1.19.3
If you do get it made, comment in this thread with a link to it so I can see it.
Please and thank you.
