The error it gives me is

 

The project description file (.project) for 'Minecraft' is missing.  This file contains important information about the project.  The project will not function properly until this file is restored.

 

The directory I'm using is:

C:\Users\Vince\Desktop\DevelopmentPack\Minecraft\Forge\eclipse

 

It contains one folder called .metadata

 

that folder contains a .plugins folder, a .lock file, .log.txt, and version.ini

 

I am using Forge 1.7.10

 

I re-ran Gradle, which said "Build Successful"

Alright, I did that and it worked. But now when I try and run minecraft through Eclipse I get this error:

This is with a totally clean forge install with gradlew.bat eclipse being run and everything.

re-run with --refresh-dependencies.

 

lol, when i switched to gradle i had the exact same problem.
