Looks nice. You ought to embedd the screenshot into the posting so that the blocks can be seen.

They are very shiny. Does this have a reason?
The mineral textures could be better, they only use one color.

the blue ore looks like mithril
but all in all it looks like a nice addition to the game

i dont know how to do that exactly yet, but im working on it.

im currently working on getting all the ores i want, assigning them a general color, then im going to try and adjust the textures to fit the minierals.
the light is for the fact that i dont want someone to miss them if they happen to pass them by, they are going to be VERY rare, just like they are in real life(fun fact: the global supply of cobaltominite could fit in a thimble)

and Chibi Ghost, the difference between my blue ore and mithril is: [1] the blue is brighter, and [2] it glows.

nice mod! how are the tools and weapon powerful? stronger than diamond?

yep, each one has a slighty larger range as well

damn that strong ones!

was that a compliment, or a remark of frustration?

QUICK UPDATE: i have a github page for this project if anyone wants to contribute any ideas to it
the link is here: https://github.com/ThomasMonroe314/ExoticOres.git

nice

Quick Update there have been some changes: the files have been reorganized
armor was added
lonsdaleite was added, the rarity of it is similar to that of unobtainium, but surprislingly easy to get
im also working on screenshots to go with then new mod update

lons what?

lonsdaleite is a very rare mineral similar to diamond but harder, only found where metorites are found

It would be wise for descriptions to start with capital letters.

it's mese no? :3

no its not mese

and i meant diamond irl not in-game

I use pasteboard to do screenshots. I can give you a link if you want.

ThomasMonroe wrote:no its not mese

yes, i know, it's just that mese is supposed to have the same properties :)

ah ok

Nice mod

thanks

UPDATE:
the ore textures have been updated and also the lons armor textures and the sword textures.

dont forget to add cobalt ;)

Cobalt is already in the xtraores mod so i didnt want to add a duplicate.
