Vein Miner Enchantment Data Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need the main Veinminer pack to use this?
Yes, this enchantment data pack is an add-on and requires the main Veinminer pack to be installed first. Without it, the enchantment won't function.
How do I get the Veinmine enchantment?
You can find it in an enchanting table (like Unbreaking or Fortune) or trade for enchanted books with librarian villagers. Both methods work equally well.
Why isn't Veinmine showing up in my enchanting table?
Make sure you have bookshelves placed around your enchanting table to unlock higher enchantment levels, and that you're enchanting a valid tool like a pickaxe, axe, or shovel.
Can I add Veinmine to a tool that already has other enchantments?
Yes, use an anvil to combine a Veinmine enchanted book with your existing tool, though this will cost experience levels based on the anvil_cost configuration.
What tools can I enchant with Veinmine?
Pickaxes, axes, and shovels can all receive the Veinmine enchantment and use it to break connected ore veins.
Does Veinmine work with Fortune or other enchantments?
Yes, Veinmine works alongside other enchantments like Fortune, Unbreaking, and Efficiency without conflicts.
How often does Veinmine appear in the enchanting table?
The appearance rate is controlled by the weight configuration setting, which you can adjust if you want it to show up more or less frequently.
Can I change how rare the enchantment is?
Yes, you can configure the weight (frequency), min_cost (minimum level to see it), and max_cost (maximum level) in the pack's configuration settings.
Does this mod affect performance or cause lag?
This enchantment pack is lightweight since it only adds one enchantment and relies on the main Veinminer pack's existing systems, so performance impact is minimal.
What happens if I mine ore without the Veinmine enchantment?
Without the enchantment, you'll mine blocks normally one at a time instead of breaking entire connected veins, which is the intended progression mechanic.
