Frequently asked questions
How do I see ore spawn heights in JEI?
Open JEI's item list, find an ore block, and press U (usage key) to view its spawn information. The screen will show the minimum and maximum Y-levels where that ore generates.
Why does the mod show different ore heights than where I'm finding them?
Ore spawn heights vary by dimension and can be affected by other mods or custom world generation settings. Check that you're looking at information for the correct dimension, and verify your modpack hasn't changed ore generation rules.
Does JEI Ores work on servers?
Yes, but the mod must be installed on both your client and the server. If it's only on one side, the mod disables itself automatically to prevent desyncs.
Can I see ore spawn info for modded ores?
Yes, the mod automatically detects and displays spawn data for custom ores from other mods without requiring any extra configuration.
