      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

I cannot for the life of me find any ores.

17 posts in this topic

Confused as to why they don't really spawn everywhere, wherever I set up sluices or go around picking up stones to find ores, I never find ANY.

I can't get past tier 0 cause the game won't let me...

I'm not sure what to do, been playing for a total 11 or 12 hours accross 3 worlds trying to search, and nothing. Over and over.

I always manage to find ore quite quickly just from rocks on the surface. Once you find a small grouping of ore on the surface (4-6) dont forget to mark your co-ords so you can return later and mine once you have a pick. Personally I never bother with a sluice to find ore. The hard part is finding stone usable for an anvil.

In this world I'm playing right now, I've explored three different biomes and I've gotten 6 stacks of ground rocks, no ores at all.

Nothing to do but keep searching but still, very annoying. Had to put the game on peaceful to keep from getting slaughtered.

Glad to hear it, hopefully you can find enough to make a pickaxe. (16?)

Remember where you're finding those nuggets, you'll want to go back there when you get a pickaxe and prospect underneath them.

Kimb, given an unlimited amount of time, the amount of sentences i can think wierdly about tends to infinity. Right now, enough time has passed so i can find a strange meaning to your question.

I haven't had any luck finding hematite. I've found small veins, but only enough to make a few ingots in each vein. You can't just walk and pick up rocks, you have to mine for that shit. So many branches that my mine is a labrynth and I get lost all too often. Iron has evaded me.

Even if you move constantly?
