# About datapack \/ mod
\nRaw Ore to Blocks (ROtB) allows you to smelt **Raw Ore Blocks** into **Smelted Ore Blocks** saving you a little bit of time when you have a ton of ore to smelt. It was mainly created to speed up the process of smelting **copper**, as there’s always a load of it, but it also works with **iron** and **gold**.<\/p>\n

## Feature balancing
\nI didn’t want this datapack \/ mod to be overpowered, so there are two things I did to balance it and keep that Vanilla-like experience.
\n– Smelting Raw Ore Block takes the same time as smelting **8 single raw ores** saving your smelting time by one ingot per block. (1600 ticks in the furnace, 800 ticks in the blast furnace). It also ensures that you will use only **one piece of coal for every block smelted**, so you’re saving one coal piece per smelted block.
\n– Smelting Raw Ore Block gives you the same amount of EXP as smelting **9 single raw ores** so you’re not losing any experience.<\/p>\n

## Recipes
\nThis datapack \/ mod adds **6** new recipes that allow you to smelt raw ore blocks \u2014 3 recipes for the furnace and 3 for the blast furnace.<\/p>\n

## Advancements
\nThis datapack \/ mod comes with 4 new advancements. 3 of them will **reward** you for smelting raw ore blocks with some additional experience points.<\/p>\n

## Translations
\nDatapack \/ mod supports following languages:<\/p>\n

English<\/img><\/p>\n

Polish<\/img><\/p>\n

## Future project support
\nI plan on updating this project once new **full** releases of Minecraft comes out.<\/p>\n

## Compatibility with other projects
\nIf you want some extra compatibility for ores introduced with **other mods**, let me know on **Discord** and I will release additional add-ons giving compatibility with desired mods!<\/p>\n
