Hi all! Sorry for my English? i'm Russian.

 

I want to learn to write modifications/

So, I'm trying to install forge src (http://adf.ly/673885/http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.6.4-9.11.1.965/forge-1.6.4-9.11.1.965-src.zip) and have a problem with it!

 

Every time, i try to run install.cmd (my OS is win7), there is error:

Please, help me with my problem. what am I doing wrong?

Use the gradle builds.

Use the gradle builds.

 

I don't understand. What does mean the word "gradle"? (sorry 4 English =( )

where can I download gradle version? Give me the link, please.

http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php?action=files Same place as every other download -.-

There is only "(Changelog) (Installer) * (Javadoc) * (Src) * (Universal) *" (for minecraft 1.6.4) on this link. Which version should I download?

src, as always.

Both the latest and the recommended builds for Minecraft 1.6.4 are 9.11.1.965.

 

The 965 src package does not contain anything related to gradle. It took me hours of google searching before I gave up on 965.

 

I decided to check in the older source packages. I downloaded the src for 9.11.1.964, and sure enough, this was a gradle build. I played around with it for an hour or so. I like the gradle build system a lot. I watched the Lex Manos

video, and tried editing my build.gradle to use

minecraft {
version = "1.6.4-9.11.1.965"
}

 

It failed. :'(

 

Why is there no gradle build for 965? I was under the assumption that this was *the way* moving forward. Why did I have to go to an older version to get the newer build system?

 

I'll continue with 964 for now because I am now a big fan of building mods with gradle, but I am very curious as to why this much better system is not in the *latest* and *recommended* builds.
