[1.7.10]Setup Dependencies

[Elrol_Arrowsend]

Hello. I am Elrol. I am using Pam's HarvestCraft to make my own addon for it. Since all of the items have an OreDict entry, I can use the items with out needing to have the src for it. How ever, I want my mod to have Pam's harvestCraft as a dependency. I am coding for 1.7.10,

 

any help is welcome.

Just add the dependencies param to your @Mod in your main mod class.  you can specify before or after by adding "before:" or "after:" before the modid.

 

example: @Mod(modid = "MODID", version="DEV", dependencies="required-after:IC2")

is there any way to have a required version of the mod used for the dependency?

there is a wiki page for addons, it's incomplete but it may become handy
