    This individual pack will no longer be maintained. See: https://www.planetminecraft.com/data-pack/tbm-s-geode-series/



    My friend and I were looking for gold in an SMP, and all of a sudden I imagined geodes with raw gold ore blocks (probably influenced by recently making the Ancient Reserves datapack). I did a little bit of research into actual gold lodes, and impulsively made this datapack. These geodes spawn with layers of raw gold blocks, then calcite, then granite on the outside. Good luck hitting it big in the next gold rush!

    Where to Find Them:
    Gold geodes spawn in badlands biomes and their variants; roughly between y-16 and y56. Unlike amethyst geodes, these ones typically spawn without a cracked opening. This allows the geode to sometimes masquerade as a granite blob, but its tell is exposed calcite and other times its circular shape.

    Is This Balanced?
    I have made these geodes spawn about five times more rarely than the common amethyst geode, but also only in three decently rare biomes. In spectator, I have found them to spawn exposed uncommonly. Otherwise, they tend to spawn in solid areas out of reach from caves. If you want to change the rarity, navigate to ~Gold Geodes/data/tbm_motherlode/worldgen/placed_feature/gold_lode, then adjust the "chance" value (higher being more rare).

      Have something to say?

    The individual packs are no longer supported past 1.20.4.

    As for the geode series packs, I cannot help without more information

    Do you mean it doesn’t appear in the datapack GUI during world creation?

    Ok, the datapack doesn't work if you just upload it to the right folder:
    [​15:04:22 WARN]: Missing metadata in pack file/gold-geodes.zip

    You need to unpack the ZIP...
    And now in the console this:

    Yes, the downloaded file must be unzipped first.

    From what I can tell in your log, the issue seems to be the .DS_Store file. That is a result of me creating the pack in MacOS, and shouldn’t pose a game-breaking problem.

    Does the pack validate? If it refuses to validate, try running the pack on a vanilla instance. If that works, perhaps it has to do with Purpur’s handling of the packs, which means it would require manually removing the .DS_Store files. From what I understand, this shouldn’t be necessary, however I would assume that would be the last logical explanation assuming it reads as invalid.

    If delete .DS_Store then the datapack will stop working, I left everything as it is and everything works fine, there are just some errors associated with Purpur, close our eyes to this :)

    Ah alright. Glad to hear it’s working as intended. Good luck finding one of these geodes!
