This is my second mod (the first being the quartz mod). Its a short and very simple mod that took under an hour to complete. I thought that fools gold would be something fun and a necessity to add, so before I explain this short mod Ill say 2 things. This mod requires MODLOADER and TEMPORARILY edits the aq class file, or ItemPickaxe file, this will be fixed shortly. I wont give you installation instructions since this is installed like any other mod, and there are tons of places on the forums in which you can find out how. Searching is quite a lovely friend is it not?
ModLoader can be found here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=80246
So lets get started, shall we?
Fools Gold is a randomly generated block. It looks EXACTLY the same as gold and is a bit more common then real gold. It has the same pocket sizes and even when you put your mouse over the block it says "Gold Ore". I know you all will be thinking now that you can tell that the block is fools gold if you mine actual gold and the fools gold will be in a different slot then the real gold. Dont worry, there are 2 fools gold blocks, each functioning the same. This will avoid that.
So back to me explaining the mod.
So yeah, after you mine the "gold" and are happily climbing out of your mining shaft. You run over to smelt the "Gold Ore", and when it finishes smelting, and you place your cursor over the gold, you find a smiley face grinning at you. Indicating that the item isnt actual gold, but is fools gold. Currently fools gold(or pyrite) is useless, and I plan on having it that way.
Two out of the three blocks are fools gold in teh picture
You can craft a Counterfeit Detector which will tell you, before mining the gold whether it is fools gold or not.
If the counterfeit detector destroys the "Gold Ore" quickly then that means that the ore is fools gold. If the counterfeit detector destroys the block slowly then that means its real gold.

Haha, I like this and I think I will use it in the future. :tongue.gif: Makes a lot of sense to me to have something like fake gold in the game, makes it more real. Good job and I hope to see more mods from you. =)
Lol interesting. I guess any smart person would just carry one known gold ore block on them to know which pile is good but other than that keep up the creativity :smile.gif:
Way better than adding more useless ores, no pun intented :wink.gif:, to the mix(i.e. copper, bronze, bla, bla, bla). This at least makes the game harder but in a way more fun.

Thanx a lot.
I added two fools gold ores, each with the same function, just to avoid that.

I like the concept of the fools gold, but in this current state its not very useful and me being an angry person probally wouldint like this. It would be cool if there were other fool ores and maybe fool tools? You know you mine fony iron and when you make a sword out of it it comes out deformed or something along those lines

Thats a great idea!
I just meant for this to be a simple mod though and didnt want to expand much on the idea. Dont expect much.
