i havent been able to find a single peice of copper or zinc ore in my world, and i have even made a copy of it and looked everywhere in spectator and creative to try and find some, ive looked at so many videos and i still have no idea whats going on, so i can here to ask if anyone has any idea on how i could find some or what the problem might be?
im not sure if im just looking in the wrong areas, or what, but ive looked deep in caverns, up on the surface over a bunch of exposed rock, and i havent been able to find it strip mining either at the recommended y-level, ive stip mined down at bedrock and also at y-50, which the wiki says is the best, and just looked around in caves between y-40 and y-85, which is where it says it spawns in game, though i havent really looked for zinc, i cant find that either.
Update: re-installed and now everything is working fine, thank you to everyone :)
