Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

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.

The mining dimension is the same as the mining dimension from my mod Galaxycraft Infinity but this mod is made for people who want the mining dimension in their modpack without the features from Galaxycraft.

How does it work?

This mod adds 1 new dimension: the mining dimension. The entire dimension is made out of a weird kind of stone that changes into random ores from the forge:ores block tag when you walk around them. This makes the mod compatible with almost all mods that add new ores including my other mod Crystalcraft Unlimited

If you do not have any other ore mods installed the dimension will simply generate vanilla ores.

The portal frame is made out of glitch block: a block that can be made with glitch ore:

This is glitch ore it can be found at levels where bedrock can also be found. You need a netherite pickaxe or better to mine one. The ore is really rare and hard to find.

When mined it will drop glitch diamond. Use 9 of them to create a Mining Dimension portal frame block.

The final step is to make the igniter in a smithing table using the recipe above.

Now you will be able to ignite the portal and travel to the mining dimension!
