gradle setupDecompWorkspace not working on OSX

Posted January 2, 201411 yr

Attempting to build ExampleMod included with forge-1.7.2-10.12.0.982-src, following the tutorial instructions I tried:

gradle --info setupDevWorkspace

and got the following error messages:

Attempted to import forge-1.7.2-10.12.0.982-src using the gradle eclipse plugin as well, and got exactly the same problem. The plugin popped up a dialog with the same error message:

I too have been having some problems with Gradle for OS X, although not in the way above. For some reason, gradlew seems it can't find the task

setupDecompWorkspace

, and tells me to try

gradlew tasks

where it too does not show up. Not sure if I'm missing something obvious or not, or if it actually isn't working.

EDIT: I figured it out, it was a derp. I ran

cd /Volumes/LUIS/Development/MCP

then dragged the gradlew file into the terminal, and it worked. Just a little heads-up to anyone having the same problem, don't forget to direct the terminal to your folder first!

I had the same problem and was able to get around it by modifying the build/unpacked/dev.json to use 2.9.1 instead of 2.9.1-nightly... for the lwjgl libraries.

I then encountered another problem that cropped up with MCP earlier this year: we need more heap space than the default gradle script allows. I specified 1024m and was able to build to completion.

Hope that helps.

Thanks @mabrowning, I was able to kick it by editing the build/unpacked/dev.json file, changing "2.9.1-nightly-20131017" to "2.9.1". Strangely, after the build succeeded, the file reverted to those values, but I think the lwjgl libraries were downloaded from somewhere else.

Is there a cleaner way to fix this for OSX?

Many thanks.

The issue is on the Mojang servers' end, not much we can do about it, the launcher is having the same issue so they should be addressing it, and once they do we will update on our end.

This is why we cache things if you get the files once you wont need to download them ever again. So kep trying

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

Lex, is there an easy way to increase the default heap size when running on OSX? Perhaps just in the gradle wrapper? Admittedly, not a hard problem to solve, but you have to run it with --debug to see why it fails.

[1.21.3] How to add effects to food?

game changed the way you create foods.
for example minecraft 1.21.8 code for the golden apple is

Foods.java
public static final FoodProperties GOLDEN_APPLE = new FoodProperties.Builder().nutrition(4).saturationModifier(1.2F).alwaysEdible().build();

Items.java
public static final Item GOLDEN_APPLE = registerItem("golden_apple", new Item.Properties().food(Foods.GOLDEN_APPLE, Consumables.GOLDEN_APPLE));

Consumables.java
public static final Consumable GOLDEN_APPLE = defaultFood() .onConsume( new ApplyStatusEffectsConsumeEffect( List.of(new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.REGENERATION, 100, 1), new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.ABSORPTION, 2400, 0)) ) )
