Help With Custom Ore Gen Mod

[1SDAN]

Okay I feel like such a n00b right now. I want to use the PresetHugeVeins but I have literally NO idea on how to go about this. I know absolutely no XML and the code I am looking at in the config looks like well-written highly sophisticated gibberish. If someone could give me a short code snippet I can copy, paste and edit for each ore in my pack along with a little explanation as to how to configure it I'd really appreciate it.

You can use COFH Core for custom ore gen...

 

[1SDAN]

Yeah, COFH isn't allowing me to make anything smaller than 1 per chunk, I don't like it.

Then you're on your own. As far as I know, everyone using custom ore gen here is using COFH.

Mod?/Pack?
Link?

CustomOreGeneration mod is fantastic, but i'm not sure about tiny veins. Try it out.

Not tiny veins, giant veins that are very rare.

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out the Custom Ore Gen mod, just need a tutorial or something.

It is very simple, just set a world and hit Custom ore gen in the World Setup menu, hit advanced options and tweak the slider to as low as possible. I would also dig around in the CustomOreGen config.

 

[1SDAN]

But I can't use that on servers nor can I implement that as the default setting that way.

Also, I was asking how I could use the config in the first place. Seriously, does anyone even read the OP?

Actually, you can. Make the world in singleplayer and just put it in the server folder.

 

[1SDAN]

Okay, that solves problem A, but problem B is what I was looking to answer here, I am using this as part of a mod pack I'm making and the pack will be balanced around this specific type of generation, which means I need it i config file form.

 

[Queue]

There is one config file added with CWGen, I think you can set things there. I'm sorry, I can't help much further than that.

using cofhcore?

btw:
"chunkChance": 2
makes it gen once in about two chunks.

EDIT: now that i'm not on mobile...
