Copper Ore Nerf
Reduces the amount of copper obtained from copper ore to match other metal ores. With Tinkers/Create/Thermal compatibility
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
If you're like me and think copper is a bit too easy to get, then this datapack (also packaged as a mod) reduces the amount of raw copper that drops from copper ore and deepslate copper ore to match other metal ores. Like iron and gold ore, copper ore will drop only one piece of raw copper, and up to one additional piece with each level of Fortune.
Also includes compatibility for:
- Tinkers' Construct (melting recipe)
- Create (crushing recipe)
- Thermal (pulverizer and induction smelter recipes)
