How do I install this?

This is intended as a debuging mod to help with fine tuning ore generation, I made it when I was first playing about with my opal ore (not published, I plan to but no promises) so I could actually see what was going on with the ore generation.
I extended it to optionally support the nether mod because I am also playing with expanding the valuables you can find in the nether.

I added a green post_effect_color for default stone and a red one for desert stone, also a purple one for nether rack and a blue one for deep nether rack.

The mod seems to stop the spawning of trees and decorations on the map, I honestly have no idea how, though this doesn't interfere with its intended purpose.

All testing done in Minetest 5.3.0 on windows 10 20H2 and with the V7 mapgen.

On the whole though this simple mod really helped me with my ores!

Best used in combination with my other mod ambient_light, which lights up blocks underground.

Hope you find it useful too :)

Do you recommend this mod?

  • Hmm

    Good but when you are in-game you can't disable it ? Could be better if we can enable and disable it.

    Actually you are always with xray enable. Xray world, okay that's a concept maybe but i think that won't be used a lot :)

    Except that, the mod is correct, I guess
