How can I do oregen in minetest 4.15 ?

[Sires]

I'm trying a lot to make an ore but I don't know why, I can't.
The code that I'm using now is

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

minetest.register_ore({
   ore_type         = "scatter",
   ore              = "niceblock:niceblock",
   wherein          = "default:air",
   clust_scarcity   = 8*8*8,
   clust_num_ores   = 4,
   clust_size       = 3,
   y_min            = -300,
   y_max            = 100,
   noise_params     = {offset = 0, scale = 1, spread = {x = 100, y = 100, z = 100}, seed = 420, octaves = 3, persist = 0.7},
   noise_threshhold = 0.5,
})


But that doesn't works, I copied and pasted a lot of codes from tutorials, no one worked

i'm having the same issue.

i placed the code in the default mapgen.lua and it works. but that defeats the purpose.

Your mod needs a file called "depends.txt" with the content "default", to make sure your mod is loaded after default. This is important because that mod clears all previously registered ores.

There's also an issue in your code:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

   wherein          = "default:air",
should be either
   wherein          = "air",
or more likely
   wherein          = "default:stone",

That worked, thx
