Posted July 18, 201312 yr Hello, I want to be able to make my mod so that IF for example buildcraft/ic2 is installed alongside my mod that new items and recipes show up in my mod. For example, if my mod were to add loads of pickaxes but I didn't add tin into the mod, if I also installed ic2 there would be a new item called a tin pickaxe and a recipe for it. How would I go about doing this?
July 19, 201312 yr Author if(Loader.isModLoader(modid)) { //make new items } So, I don't need any api's? Just the mod ID?
July 19, 201312 yr Well, if you are making the items usable by these other mods, via fuel or pipe connections or EU users or whatever, you're going to need the APIs. In your question you just said you wanted to add new content using another mod's items, in which case would not require the API to make a tin pickaxe. Hopefully that makes sense.

In your question you just said you wanted to add new content using another mod's items, in which case would not require the API to make a tin pickaxe. Hopefully that makes sense. Okay, thanks. But where do I put this line? Because in Preinit it gives me errors, or should I make the modid a string?
July 19, 201312 yr The modID needs to be a String that represents the mod you are checking for. When you made your @Mod, you gave it modid = "someID". All @Mods have this, so you need to know what the ID of the mod is. You can check that mod's mcmod.info, and it should give it to you. For example, if you wanted to check and see if my mod Plunder Rummage was installed, you'd do this: if(Loader.isModLoader("PR")) { //do stuff }

July 19, 201312 yr Author Okay, so I tried that (with two of my own mods to test) and I got an error when trying to start minecraft with both installed at the same time. There are no ID conflicts Crash log: ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // Why did you do that?

July 19, 201312 yr hmm, i also got a question, not that everything has to be done in the pre-init, is there a way to change the load order of mods? in this case cant he simply change his itemstack creation to the init phase ? If the job HAS to be done during the preinit, like a item that is based off another item, what can he do to make sure that the other mod is loaded before his ? how to debug 101:http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Debug_101 -hydroflame, author of the forge revolution-
July 19, 201312 yr Author Amethyst hasn't been created yet. What do you mean? Do I have to create a Amethyst in that if statement?
July 19, 201312 yr heres what happening 1 your mod loads 2 amethyst mod loads because your mod is the first to load you get obvious problem of "well thsi doesnt exists" what you WOULD like to happen is that 1 amethyst mod load 2 your mod loads but afaik theres no way to set the mod load order what you could try is move all that code in the init() phase or even postinit() this way its possible that amethyst mod will be loaded when you get there and that the item Amethyst will exists how to debug 101:http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Debug_101 -hydroflame, author of the forge revolution-
July 19, 201312 yr Author Yes there is its in the forestry code it's a soft depends. How did they do it there and does that still work in 1.6?
July 19, 201312 yr Dependencies are: @Mod(modid = "modid" name = "modname", version = "v0.123", dependencies = "required-after:IC2") That'll require any version of IC2 to run and it'll always run after the dependency's loaded. EDIT: And for 'specific' version: dependencies = "required-after:IC2@[1.1.7,)") Would require the minimum version of IC2 to be 1.1.7
July 19, 201312 yr does forge detect circular dependencies ? (i know it shouldnt happen but what if modder set it up this way?) how to debug 101:http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Debug_101 -hydroflame, author of the forge revolution-

EDIT: And for 'specific' version: dependencies = "required-after:IC2@[1.1.7,)") Would require the minimum version of IC2 to be 1.1.7 But then it will become an addon, so it would require IC2 to work at all, wouldn't it? I don't want it to do that
July 19, 201312 yr This is what Forestry uses dependencies="after:ExtrabiomesXL;after:BiomesOPlenty;after:IC2"
July 19, 201312 yr Dependencies are: @Mod(modid = "modid" name = "modname", version = "v0.123", dependencies = "required-after:IC2") That'll require any version of IC2 to run and it'll always run after the dependency's loaded.

I don't want it to do that Yeah, that's a hard dependency, as Chibill said just use 'after' rather than 'required-after' for a soft depend.

I don't want it to do that Yeah, that's a hard dependency, as Chibill said just use 'after' rather than 'required-after' for a soft depend. So, if I want to load a new item when that other mod is loaded as well, do I just put: @Mod(modid = "modid" name = "modname", version = "v0.123", dependencies = "required-after:IC2") public static Item TestItem; @PreInit public void PreInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) { if(Loader.isModLoaded("IC2")) { TestItem= new TestItem(5013).setUnlocalizedName("testitem"); ItemStack test = new ItemStack(TestItem); ItemStack red = new ItemStack(Item.redstone); GameRegistry.addRecipe(new ItemStack (TestItem 4), " r", "aar", " r", 'a', test, 'r', red); } ?
