i have looked up tutorials on it, but i still cant figure out how to. when i try to it finishes in about 15 seconds without any errors. then, when i take a look in the jarfile, i realize that the only content inside it is a META INF folder and a MANIFEST.MF file, but no classes. i think it might be tat I've written down the wrong path to my classes, but i have checked and it is correct, so I'm not sure. my mod is located in (relative to gradlew.bat) /src/sigurd4/. the package is com.sigurd4.Bioshock. this is my build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        maven {
            name = "forge"
            url = "http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven"
        }
        maven {
            name = "sonatype"
            url = "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/"
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'net.minecraftforge.gradle:ForgeGradle:1.2-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'forge'

version = "0.1.1"
group= "com.sigurd4.Bioshock"
archivesBaseName = "BioshockMod"

minecraft {
    version = "1.7.2-10.12.1.1085"
    assetDir = "eclipse/assets"
}

dependencies {
}

processResources
{
    inputs.property "version", project.version
    inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include 'mcmod.info'
                
        expand 'version':project.version, 'mcversion':project.minecraft.version
    }
        
    from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        exclude 'mcmod.info'
    }
}

please help?

edit1: spelling

I think your path relative to your gradlew.bat-file should look like this:

/src/main/java/sigurd4/...

Normally when you set up your workspace, forge creates automatically a /src/main/-folder which contains the java folder and the resources folder. If this is the problem, go to http://files.minecraftforge.net and download the recommended version. Then create a new workspace, put in all the files, ...

Then copy all your classes from /src/sigurd4/com/sigurd4/Bioshock to your new workspace to /src/main/java/sigurd4/...

 

If there is no src/main folder, the gradlew file cannot find your main class.

 

it still doesnt work...

sigurd4, the path you specified is correct. Try running

 

gradlew build --stacktrace

 

and see if you DO get any errors. If not, I'd reinstall ForgeGradle.

the same thing happens. no errors, and a fairly empty jarfile.

Your source packages should be anchored at: <gradlew location>/src/main/java/

So, you main is .../src/main/java/com/sigurd4/bioshock/Bioshock.java is an example main class location.

holy snoop doggy it works! HALELUHJA! Thank you so much! :DDDDD Cant wait to realease my mod now!
