Landuros

Is there any way to import or use other mods' (such as Buildcraft or IC2) items and blocks to use in my mod? Specifically, I want to use some of BuildCraft and Tinker's Construct ingots to use in my Gui block. Could someone kindly list the steps in order to do so?

Oh, thank you, I will try that... My brain thought that Blocks.iron_ore was the material for some reason. Edit: Yup, that was the issue. Thank you to kremi151, jeffryfisher and Draco18s for quickly helping me with the problem.

I'm newish to Minecraft coding and how the game works but I have some knowledge on other Java programs and mods. I recently tried to spawn an ore (called money ore) but it doesn't spawn. Could someone please check my code for any errors? package com.landuros.world; import java.util.Random; import com.landuros.blocks.MBlocks; import cpw.mods.fml.common.IWorldGenerator; import net.minecraft.block.Block; import net.minecraft.init.Blocks; import net.minecraft.world.World; import net.minecraft.world.chunk.IChunkProvider; import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.WorldGenMinable; public class MOre implements IWorldGenerator { @Override public void generate(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, IChunkProvider chunkGenerator, IChunkProvider chunkProvider) { switch(world.provider.dimensionId) { case -1: generateNether(random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world); break; case 0: generateOverworld(random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world); break; case 1: generateEnd(random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16, world); break; } } private void addOre(Block block, Block blockspawn, Random random, World world, int posX, int posZ, int minY, int maxY, int minVein, int maxVein, int spawnChance) { for(int i = 0; i < spawnChance; i++) { int defaultChunkSize = 16; int xPos = posX + random.nextInt(defaultChunkSize); int yPos = minY + random.nextInt(maxY - minY); int zPos = posZ + random.nextInt(defaultChunkSize); new WorldGenMinable(block, (minVein + random.nextInt(maxVein - minVein)), blockspawn).generate(world, random, xPos, yPos, zPos); } } private void generateEnd(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world) { } private void generateOverworld(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world) { addOre(MBlocks.MoneyOre, Blocks.iron_ore, random, world, chunkX, chunkZ, 0, 150, 10, 50, 20); } private void generateNether(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world) { } } I have another .java file that registers the World Gen and calls upon GameRegistry, and I don't think that's the problem. Also, could someone please confirm what the integers in this line of code represent? addOre(MBlocks.MoneyOre, Blocks.iron_ore, random, world, chunkX, chunkZ, 0, 150, 10, 50, 20); I'm pretty sure the first two are the minY and maxY values, and 50 is the spawn rate. Thanks
