[FIXED] Contributing to Forge - Problems with gradle setupForge


Recommended Posts

Posted

Dear Forge developers,

 

I'd like to contribute and have tried doing my homework (googled, wiki'd, read tweets, read up on mcp, search these forums+read recent posts) before coming here, but unfortunately find myself stuck. I have a number of questions, which I will highlight for the sake of readability.

 

I'm assuming this link https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge/wiki/If-you-want-to-contribute-to-Forge is obsolete and that the correct procedure for contribution is described here https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge/blob/master/README.txt, leading to my first set of questions:

 

Gradle - missing resources

I have cloned the repository (Might be a good idea to mention that submodules have to be checked out also, there might be other derps like me who miss that!), no problem there (anymore :) )

 

I execute gradle(w.bat) setupForge from the workspace root. Due to the errors I have received, I have tried this with gradlew.bat with and without gradle installed, as well as with the gradle command. In all cases the log will look like this: (https://gist.github.com/beyonix/7958370)

 

Between lines 6840 and 6991 you'll find loads of "Resource missing." entries. When I point my eclipse to the repository eclipse folder, it shows a number of these as missing libraries:

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

I think I could manually locate these and place them correctly, but that seems rather cumbersome and defeating the purpose of having a nice gradle environment. Is this an issue or just me missing something obvious?

 

Development process

My second set of questions regards the nature of development activities for Forge. I understand that MCP provides an environment for d/recompiling+d/reobfuscating minecraft, and that Forge extends the deobfuscated code through patches supplying a range of hooks for easier/standardized minecraft modding, is that correct? I'm particularly in doubt whether in Forge we are supposed do the renaming of undescriptive methodnames such as ChunkProviderEnd.func_147420_a to generateTerrain (what it seemed to be in 1.6.4). Is this method/variable naming a MCP 'responsibility' or a Forge one?

 

I ask because in my log I see lines such as:

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

Which in some cases seems to be fixed by restoring the more descriptive method/parameter names, but as mentioned, I'm not sure whether I should touch that.

 

All in all, I find it difficult to assess the current progress towards 1.7, what exactly remains to be done still and how I can pick a task without clinching with other developers. If anyone could give/link a more in depth description how forge builds on top of mcp and/or a concrete list of task-types/instances, that would be very helpful.

 

Thanks a lot in advance :)

1) Run with --update-dependencies So you get the latest GradleForge, You're trying to download files from the old libraries server, we've already fixed it for the new.

2) Renaming methods from srg names to user friendly names is soley the department of MCP. And can be done through MCP's bot on IRC: http://mcpold.ocean-labs.de/index.php/MCPBot Its all crowd sourced so if you want to rename things you can, just don't do it in Forge, do it through the bot.

 

There is no concrete list of things Forge provides, but the first task in any update is to kill as many errors in our source as possible., Then work on re-introducing all of the patches.

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

Hello, i'm getting the same problem, getting dependencies error in eclipse, so i tried deleting the cache and re installed using --refresh-dependencies as --update-dependencies doesn't seem to work. But anyways, any method i try ends up in failure with the same dependencies error in eclipse.

 

Hope you can help us.

 

PD: Sorry for my English, i'm from Perú.

@LexManos: A concise response containing everything I needed to continue, thanks a lot! :)

 

With respect to the first point, I didn't get --update-dependencies to work either but --refresh-dependencies seemed to lead to gradle retrieving the latest jars. However, the dependencies are indeed still missing if I rerun setupForge. I think the URL's to those library downloads may be incorrect? I have tried downloading a few of these libraries manually and found that all of them downloaded without problem if I substituted the "http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/" prefix with "https://libraries.minecraft.net/". So I imagine this is either a GradleForge issue or us not understanding how to run the --update-dependencies. Could you perhaps enlighten us on which one is most likely and explain us how to not derp if that is the case? :P

    • It all began when I made what I thought was a smart move, investing a significant sum in a promising new cryptocurrency project. The marketing was slick, the whitepaper looked solid, and the hype was massive. But just a few weeks in, I started noticing red flags. The platform went down intermittently, withdrawals were delayed, and eventually, the website vanished altogether. I realized too late: I had fallen victim to a sophisticated crypto scam. Devastated and angry, I felt completely helpless. The blockchain is supposed to be secure and transparent, but tracing stolen assets through multiple wallets, mixers, and decentralized exchanges felt like chasing shadows. I reported it to local authorities, but they admitted they had limited tools for handling crypto-based crimes. That’s when a close friend recommended Alpha Spy Nest Forensic Digital Recovery Experts. Skeptical but desperate, I reached out. From the very first consultation, their professionalism stood out. They didn’t promise miracles, but they laid out a realistic recovery plan. Their team of cyber forensics specialists, blockchain analysts, and legal advisors worked together seamlessly. They began by tracing the movement of my funds through a series of blockchain addresses, even identifying key mixing points and suspicious wallet activity. I was amazed by the level of detail they could extract.Over the following weeks, Alpha Spy Nest liaised with major exchanges and digital compliance bodies, submitting detailed forensic reports. With their guidance, several suspicious wallets were flagged, frozen, and ultimately, a substantial portion of my lost funds was recovered and returned. I never thought recovery was even possible. But thanks to Alpha Spy Nest, not only did I regain a large part of my investment, I also restored some peace of mind. They didn’t just recover funds, they gave me back hope in a world where digital crime seemed untouchable.

    • And the mods.toml?   Instead of using  modId="${mod_id}" try  modId="wackyweapons"
    • I've been working on Minecraft Forge 1.21 Modding, (I'm a bit inexperienced), and when trying to create my own custom throwable projectile entity, I come across this error I can't seem to fix. The console reads that my "mod not working due to Invalid bare key: '${mod_id}'  ". Does anyone know why this is happening? The Pastebin link for all the relevant files is https://pastebin.com/h3UaNYwn. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
