[UNRESOLVED]Help Removing Ores

[AndyLun]

Hello guys,

for some reason, I wanted to remove the vanilla Iron and Gold Ore and replacing them with my own Iron/Gold ores. How can this be possible ? I think that will have to be messing around vanilla files...

 

Anyways, please help. Thanks alot.

Use the vanilla blockIDs for the respective ores for your mod ores.

Just that simple ? Alright, I will test it out. I thought it would be hard...

Oops, seems like I can't just straight away and do that.

It crashes and says

java:IllegalArgumentException : Slot 15 (its iron ore) is already occupied by net.minecraft.src.block.BlockOre@xxxxx < random numbers/letters

 

Please Help ? Thanks

This might not be the right (or best) way of doing things, but you can replace Block.oreGold and Block.oreIron with your ores, since they're not set to final.

Hey there,

I've solved the problem.

 

I got into net.minecraft.src.biome.BiomeDecorator, and I commented out the lines regarding to the iron and gold spawning lines and variables.

Everything works just fine. Since then I haven't found a Single Piece of Iron or Gold.

Editing base classes is hardly a solution. The simple solution is, change Block.blocksList[] and set the gold and iron vanilla ores to null first.

Any Editing of Base Classes will be undone by forge if you release the mod since removing anything from vanilla Minecraft is bad and could/ would cause major conflicts with other mods.
