"This mod WASN'T made with MCreator"
for some reason i cant find the ore anywhere
In reply to ThisIsSwizz:
Hey, could you give me some more information? In what dimension were you looking? At what y-level? What MC version are you using?
Can you make it appear only below the lava lakes?
It would be an interesting feature
In reply to k4dj1t:
Like always I will take it into consideration. However, I do not want to drastically change the spawns like this YET.
What is the recipe? i can't craft the armor or weapons, can't even find them in JEI

Thanks for the spotlight! I'm sure you're gonna enjoy the next update!
I might add your video to the mod's page when I restructure it this week.
I really like this mod and it feels pretty vanilla friendly and glad it is being maintained now! But as maintainer, are you planning to only keep the mod up to date and fix bugs, or will you also add some content or at least make some tweaks? Because I have a few tweak ideas you should do, such as:
- Vulcanite items are fire resistant, just like netherite
- Vulcanite Ore uses the "Nether Ore" block sound instead of stone
- If a Strider is standing on the Solidified Lava, it will have the warm texture
And some other ideas that are a bit more "far fetched" ig lol:
- Vulcanite Helmet and Leggings match the armor of Iron Helmet and Leggings, because the Vulcanite Helmet has +1 armor while the Leggings have -1
- Vulcanite armor could give 1 more toughness
- Upgrading from Iron to Vulcanite uses the smithing table rather than an anvil
- maybe Block of Vulcanite can have custom block sounds, like netherite block (could just be a cool asthetic, I like mods that add new block sounds lol)
In reply to theextremeborger:
Thank you for the feedback! I want to let you know that I will be adding new features, although I do want to keep it as vanilla-friendly as possible. This means that there will be updates here and there, but there won't be many big changes after the coming updates (until a new Minecraft version is released and we want Vulcanite to use some of its functionality).
Some features I have planned do match the ones in your list of suggestions:
- An updated 1.12 version
- German & Russian translations
- Custom sounds
- Use the smithing table to create a netherite version of Vulcanite armor
I'll add the strider suggestion to the list, since I think it's an exceptional idea.
As for the stat changes, I'll take a look into it. I think we might want to rebalance this mod for 1.16 because of all of the changes the update makes to the game's difficulty.
cool mod also 1.16.5 any time soon
In reply to alexandru20111: I'm currently working on a 1.12 update, since that is the most popular version of the mod. I'll update the 1.16 version after.
Kinda sad to hear that this mod is no longer gonna be updated. Really enjoy the pickaxe. Still, it is understandable and I hope for the best for you in your future projects.
In reply to Jusey1z:
I am now maintaining the mod and I'll make sure to update it in the future
In reply to ZimonIsHim:
Oh, awesome to note. Well, crap. I deleted my old textures for this mod. I kinda took the fiery textures from "Twilight Forest" to make my own texture pack and I had to make a few from scratch. So, I'll get back to work on that and prepare myself for this update.
Plans for 1.16.1?
In reply to modeeves:
Nope
