I think it does not change.
Anyway NEI has info about the oreGen. just look-up the desired ore and click a few times throgh the recipt. There is a graph there thata tells you the spawning layers and the optimal mining layer.

This info is added by NotEnoughResources. It is an add to all packs for me now.

It looks like Emerald ore might not generate in the world according to NER. There's no tab showing the Y range for it, so possibly villager trade only? Can anyone confirm or deny?

There was an issue with Emerald Ore not spawning in some instances, but I am unsure as to why or how it was fixed. You're not just crazy (though I won't rule out the possibility).

I've mined emerald ore in expert mode recommended version. I'm 99% sure it came from a quarry in the overworld. There's a tiny possibility it came from a hollow hill in the TF.

I've also mined quite a bit of nether emerald ore fwiw (and tons from my mining laser but I've filtered for it for whatever reason. Didnt know what else to filter for)

Couple of biomes that have Emerald Ore that I know of.

Extreme Hills+
Mountains


Extreme Hills (without the +) does not have emerald generation. I know theres a few others as well that can have emeralds (plus the twilight forest hollow hills (Large lv 3 Hills))
