OSX - no fonts with latest 1.7.10 src (works fine on linux)

[MHinct]

 

Missing and/or screwed up Minecraft client fonts when running './gradlew runClient' on OSX within latest forge workspace

 

1) unzip forge-1.7.10-10.13.3.1407-1.7.10-src.zip

 

2) gradlew setupDecompWorkspace eclipse

 

3) ./gradlew runClient

 

[16:06:33] [main/INFO] [FML]: Forge Mod Loader version 7.10.85.1291 for Minecraft 1.7.10 loading

[16:06:33] [main/INFO] [FML]: Java is Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM, version 1.7.0_65, running on Mac OS X:x86_64:10.10.3

 

NOTE: I do not have this problem on ubuntu. OSX only.

Disable the loading screen for now (config/splash.properties).

 

I did this and it worked.  Thanks!!!!

Still trying to track down and find a proper solution to this. It happens on very rare occasions on macs.

What EXACT OS version, Graphics Card, Drivers, all the important information you can think of.

--  It looks as if the fonts aren't being loaded to me.  Let me know if you would like a screen shot.  If I run it within eclipse, it's just blank fonts (they are just missing), but if I run it from the command line via 'gradlew runClient' it looks like the fonts are replaced with garbage---link unprintable characters usually look.

What exact driver version/provider do you have?

The theory is that something in your drivers is telling them that the font {and other} textures are free, so OSX is using that memory to render your desktop. Which is why sometimes you see random garbage. We have a theory that it's a bug in one of the core drivers trying to impose their will on things that are not in the spec.

This is from 'gradlew runClient':

GL info: ' Vendor: 'NVIDIA Corporation' Version: '2.1 NVIDIA-10.2.7 310.41.25f01' Renderer: 'NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M OpenGL Engine'

 

Is there any command or file that you know of to the get the exact info you need?

 

As far as I know, my system is fully updated and patched---I know that probably doesn't help much

 

Thanks!

Apple -> About This Mac -> More Info

Expand the Hardware drop-down and click on the Graphics/Display option

Yup, that's exactly how I got the info for you in the post above that starts: "Here's more video card info:"  That's everything that Apple is reporting.  I've grepped through the logs looking for stuff.  If there is access available to any of the revisions between forge-1.7.10-10.13.2.1291 and

forge-1.7.10-10.13.3.1407 I would be glad to download them and run them and see if we could narrow down when this issue began. 

 

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.

 

 

 

Thanks!

Just for grins, I decided to download and test forge-1.8-11.14.1.1410-src.zip.  It worked just fine. Thanks!

Right on, sorry I've only been doinking around with this stuff for a few days.  Still getting familiar with your site. 

 

It looks like the bug was introduced (for my macbook) with this src release 10.13.3.1389

 

Maybe that will help narrow the search.

I am suffering from the same situation: Garbage/No Fonts on OSX with Forge 1.7.10 on splash (and subsequent) screen. No issue when running standard 1.7.10 or latest standard version (1.8.7).

My config: IMac 27", 16GB, i7, 3,5Ghz, Nvidia Geforce GTX775M. I tried the recommended (1481) and the latest version (1448) of Forge for 1.7.10. Both have same outcome. Since I am planning to run Flan´s Mod, I am dependent on 1.7.10.

More Details:

Bootstrap (v5)

System.getProperty('os.name') == 'Mac OS X'

System.getProperty('os.version') == '10.9.5'

System.getProperty('os.arch') == 'x86_64'

System.getProperty('java.version') == '1.6.0_65'

System.getProperty('java.vendor') == 'Apple Inc.'

System.getProperty('sun.arch.data.model') == '64'

 

Is there any recommended work around here ? Any help is highly appreciated!

Someone poke fry and tell him to just disable this shir on osx by default the level of dumb is getting annoying.
