CaveOres

This mod fundamentally changes the principle of valuable resource generation in Minecraft. The main ore deposits now appear on the walls of underground caves, making the process of collecting minerals significantly faster and more exciting.

However, this change has an important nuance: the traditional strip mining method, where players dig long tunnels through solid stone, becomes practically ineffective. Instead of excavating huge stone masses, you now need to explore underground cavities where valuable resources lie openly on the surface.

It's worth noting that the system isn't perfect — in chunks where there are no natural caves, ore will generate according to the classic scheme.

Currently, the mod only works with vanilla ore types, but the developers plan to add support for resources from other modifications.

Installation: For proper operation, you need to place the mod file in the mods folder of Minecraft 1.8 version with Forge installed. AlexIILLib version 1.3 or higher is also required.
