Why?

"Complicated tutorial" "To install my modpack, Run this jar, unzip this zip" Not complicated. The thing is, you don't need to know the main class, because there is SO MUCH MORE then just the main class that needs to be done. And the fact that you HAVE found the main class {Because it's literally labeled 'mainClass'} and disregarded it shows you have no idea what you're doing...

You should use the vanilla launcher. It is NEVER a good idea to use a 3rd party launcher, giving your user account to 3rd parties is a bad idea. If your launcher does not support the vanilla format, then there isn't much we can do, use the vanilla launcher.

Use an older Java version, or better yet, use a newer Forge version.

The problem is that you setup your workspace with java 9. And there is a issue with the java compiler that produces incorrect method references when targeting j8 with j9. Just use j9 in your dev env, or clean your cache and rebuild with j8.

Doesn't seem to be a Forge problem, more a interaction with your drivers and java. Worth cleaning up your installed Java versions, and video drivers.

Naw, this would just cause a spam of useless reports from people who don't search before posting. We already get enough of that.

Of coarse simple single use code is going to be faster then unrelated complex code. The kicker is the integration with Minecraft itself, and taking into account the things you so nonchalantly ignored, user configs dynamic textures, or any of the plethora of other things mods do that screw up the cache. Also, what parts of the texture stitching event actually takes time? What parts could be accelerated? The actual slot allocation shouldn't be that time consuming. But it'd be worth quantifying. So, as I said before, write something up and add benchmarks. And i'm talking real world implementations not unrelated theoretical code.

Don't bump 3 year old threads. Also, you have the 'same' problem when there is no problem... so... Have fun!

You're not even scratching the surface of why this isn't gunna happen. There is no sane way to do this that doesn't waste more time then it saves. but by all means, if you can think of something, write it up and add benchmarks to it.

They are called advertisements. You only install them if you want the software they are advertising. That is not malware. If you want to get rid of ads, then support my patreon. The bills have to be paid somehow.

Hacks that screw around with the network protocol are always a bad idea.

Forge can add ATs to class constructors. We do it for quite a bit. However you cant just be vague and say "some classes". Make a specific PR and explain why.

See... this is why we don't like people when they argue with us. We KNOW that our solution will fix the issue, that's why you came to us. Arguing that you did what we said and still getting the issues is just lieing to us.

Then you would not be getting this error. Verify that is the actual version gradle is finding. Run: echo %JAVA_HOME% gradlew -version

Source files are contained in jar files for java programs. There are plenty of archive viewers. And almost all IDEs natively have support for browsing sources from them. The temp directory you found is just a stage of the MC code, not the full MC code you actually compile against. And it's just a side effect of Gradle's poor jar management.

The issue is that whatever JDK you're using does not have LetsEncrypt's root certificate. Be sure you are using jdk-8.0.242.08-hotspot or newer, as that is garenteed {I use it} to have LetsEncrypt AND AWS's certs which are needed for Forge's and Mojang's servers to work.

Forge doesn't install anything to your desktop...
