June 21, 20241 yr Minecraft Version? Java Version? Maybe both versions are not matching Try my Modpack >>Link to Curseforge<<

June 21, 20241 yr Did you set the java 17 path to the javaw.exe in your script? For example: "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17.0.11\bin\javaw.exe" @user_jvm_args.txt @libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.20.1-47.3.0/win_args.txt pause Try my Modpack >>Link to Curseforge<<

REM Add custom JVM arguments to the user_jvm_args.txt REM Add custom program arguments {such as nogui} to this file in the next line before the %* or REM pass them to this script directly "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17\bin\java.exe" @user_jvm_args.txt @libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.20.1-47.3.0/win_args.txt pause when i used javaw.exe instead, nothing showed up on the console window at all
June 21, 20241 yr Keep using the javaw.exe and check ingame for the server or the log in the server's logs folder Try my Modpack >>Link to Curseforge<<

June 21, 20241 yr Did you remove the # at -Xmx4G in the user_jvm_args.txt? Try my Modpack >>Link to Curseforge<<

June 21, 20241 yr I have no idea - maybe make a test with a pre-configured modpack - most of these already have a server pack - use it as working base Try my Modpack >>Link to Curseforge<<

June 21, 20241 yr You will need an older Java 8 build - oracle 311 or older, azul b308 or older Try my Modpack >>Link to Curseforge<<

June 23, 20241 yr Good rule of thumb, is not to use fancy/special characters in file or folder names. It has a history of breaking stuff
