How do i make a mod send text to the log file

 

 

Well, it is standard Java so you can use the Logger class and I think you can get the mod logger instance with something like this (in your proxy or main class):

	public static Logger logger;

@EventHandler
public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) 
{
	logger = event.getModLog();
         }

 

If you just mean to the console though, for that you use System.out.println("whatever you want to send");

thankyou,

I use System.out.println a lot, and it dosnt get put into the log file in deployed mods,

i have a problem in a single player game, (with the deployed mod) and cant see what is happening because it isn't being logged,

the problem isnt happening when i run it from eclipse

 

 

Actually, did you know you can see the regular console output when playing Minecraft?  there is a tab on the launcher called Game Output.  So you can see your System.out.println() output even for deployed mod.
