Diorite Update

V0.3.8 Brings Diorite, a white volcanic rock. Bonus are Picture Jasper and bsaslt tiles made from basalt bricks. Thanks to the creator of Asuna (EmptyStar) you can now expect much better spreading for stones across many biomes. Some crystals will crack upon being baked in a furnace and start growing crystals on each side. Thank you to the authors of the geode mods and Mineclone2 team for the orginal functionality. Yes, it is fully compatible with 5.3, but you will get errors in the log and crystals only face upward.

Sometimes I update the source code before a release, but that is not a guarantee that whatever I put there is playable yet.

This mod currently features 77 stone types, and all can be found with enough digging. About half have a cobble variant, and all (except Agate, Ammolite, Opals, and Columnar Basalt) have brick and polished block variants. If you have the stairs or walls, you will also get stairs and slabs and/or walls. You can get geodes by installing either geode mod. Each mod has pros and cons. 7 Glowing stones were added in 0.2.1, and they can be found just as the megacaves start generating below y-1,000.

Code is LGPL 2.1 as it is heavily based on MTG. New biome specific mapgen LGPL 2.1 EmptyStar. Wall code is WTFPL being based on all_walls. The turquoise ore and all MTG sounds are CC BY-SA 3.0. All other sounds are CC0. Both types of geode generation are LGPL 3.0. Textures are MIT. Feel free to use some or all of this mod or its textures in your game or mod. Asuna is an example, and it has my blessing. Though it will usually be behind here, so if you want the best experience, load this mod again on top of Asuna. Works flawlessly in my testing. I also recommend you use my mod in a fresh new world, but in theory there is no reason it should not work with existing worlds.

Items marked "?" may never be added, but are being considered. Items marked "WIP" are being worked on for an update. Items marked DONE are done, and will be removed soon. If it is similar to an existing stone, it will be marked "*".

To Do:

Add ore mods to optional depends

Add chisled variants of each stone?

Malachite?*

Jasper? (Same as Agate)

Tiger's Eye? (Same as Agate)

Hematite WIP (ugly texture, needs work)

Moonstone?

Onyx?* (similar to existing stones, and similar to Agate)

Rhyolite? (Too much color variation and small detail)

Shale?*

Pyroxene? (It's black, and I already have a couple black stones, but the crystals are amazing)

Pegmatite?*

Topaz?*

Rhodochrosite WIP (the texture is still ugly, so not likely yet)

Pyrope? (May be too similar to Eudialite, but is transparent)

Spessartine? (May be too similar to Crocoite, but is transparent)

Iolite? (Similar to Amethyst, but more blue)

Azurite? (part of Sodalite group, major component of Lapis Lazuli)

Tsavorite? (Would look just like an emerald on this scale)

Dioptase (Like Vivianite, more blueish though)

Spodumene? (many colors, most like existing stones)

Poudrettite? (Ranges in color from exactly like rose quartz to much Pinker)

Helvite? (Lovely color, but hard to represent in 16x)

Grandidierite

Danburite? (Too similar to Quartz)

Chrysoberyl? (Cool yellow color, but not too pretty)

Axinite? (Don't know what to say, it's wierd)

Andratite? (Really pretty crystals, but not exactly easy to convert to 16x)

Euclase? (Its this or grandiderite, not both.)

Taafeite? (Same color as amethyst)

Benitoite? (Same scolor Sodalite, but blue glow, not orange)

Kimberlite? (Very similar to Rhyolite)

Anorthosite? (Really similar to Granite)

Dunite? (Kind of ugly, but is unique)

Eclogite (green)

Syenite? (Looks like Granite, but slightly streaky)

Phonolite? (Too much variation to capture well.)

Unakite (green, pink)

Cinnabar? (Very similar to eudialite)

Chert? (Too many variants)

Gneiss? (basically stripey granite)

Mookaite? (a jasper variant or looks like it)

Amber, Amethyst, Calcite, Celestine, Citrine, Erythrite, Heliodor, Prasiolite, Quartz, Rose Quartz, Smokey Quartz, and Vivianite are transparent to try to look like their real life counterparts.

One day I may make 64x textures and 512x textures for this mod, but I don't feel like the hassle is worth it yet. If you really need those textures now, try stable diffusion, it works great for 64 or 512x images. You may have to word things weirdly to get what you want.

Please leave feedback: positive, negative, anything. I want this to be the best it can be. You can leave feedback here or create a bug report on the repo. Any way you want to. More details means I can make a better mod.
