Please, I need a version of MinecraftForge 1.16.3 for MAC, I have a server with Mods and my girlfriend plays on Mac. The versions that currently exist are not compatible and I wish there could be one so that we can play.

Thanks

We don't have anyone on the dev team who uses an M1 Mac... in theory we could update pre-1.17 versions to the fixed versions of LWJGL, but we'd need someone who knows what they're doing to help make sure such a change would A) Work and B) Not screw anything else up

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

As a note, All versions of Forge work just fine on 'MACOS' it's just some graphics cards screw up LWJGL.

If you want to update LWJGL yourself in your own install, got for it.

But as Daemon said, we don't have anyone who can verify the issue or who can test the fix. And we are not going to by default ship native files compiled by random 3rd parties to our millions of users.

There is however, nothing stopping you from using a text editor and updating the lwjgl dep yourself. We just dont support it for the above reasons.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.
Consider supporting the team on Patreon

> Not compatible

Could you provide some more information on this?

Can you give me any pointers on which files need to be edited? Obviously this can't be "official" advice, but I'd like to have a crack at fixing it myself.

To us, this reads like "I'm not asking for support, but I'm asking for support"

I'll volunteer to test an update if y'all tell me what and how to do it.
