when this version is installed the better end and better nether ores no longer drop their ores.

Im using Oxidised 1.5.2 with Better End and Better Nether (latest versions) and the ores are dropping just fine for me. Have a few hundred mods installed.

also seems to be the oxidized-1.5.1 version. only the oxidized-1.5.0 version seems to work

Uh that’s strange, oxidized should not be interfering with ore drops from other mods. Is there any sort of log/error output and are you certain the problem is from this mod?

I am certain as i have tested on a new world with and without oxidized 1.5.2 and 1.5.1 vs 1.5.0 and they cause the mod ores to not drop. Unfortunately no error in logs that i can see. I will try to do further investigation as time permits.

I did some testing myself, it seems to work completely fine. Please double check if the issue is from this mod, otherwise I am closing the issue.
