(updated again) [forge 39.0.8] FML requires an internet connection to launch


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I have internet issues, particularly that I need to unplug my ethernet to prevent lightning surges destroying all my network cards and router. As a result I've run into this problem. When I launch with an internet connection it goes through just fine in online mode. When I turn that connection off I get either

When I run the game with forge disabled in multimc, it loads up with no issues.

When I run it with no mods enabled, it still shows the same error.

When I run it with forge and a bad connection (on cellular) it hangs at DOWNLOAD_MOJMAPS despite being in offline mode. Then it times out with a network error which does not happen with vanilla.

When my connection is disabled after launching, nothing happens.

When launching in offline mode with a connection (enable connection after the launcher goes into offline mode) it works fine.

I'm guessing forge just doesn't have a check for offline mode and so requests MOJMAPS and other network reliant data without a failstate.

39.0.5, 39.0.6, 39.0.7 and 39.0.8 are all affected.

Any suggestions on how to solve this would be greatly appreciated, otherwise hopefully this will be a useful bug report. ;-;

Steps to hopefullly somewhat reliably reproduce:

  1. use multimc to launch minecraft with forge 39.0.8, without a connection in offline mode
  2. results in a network related error

I've tried installing forge on the vanilla launcher too, but that fails during installation which is a whole other topic. Otherwise I would have tested it there too.

Still an issue in forge 39.0.7. Hangs on DOWNLOAD_MOJMAPS if on a slow connection, or shows UnknownHostException if disconnected altogether.
