Hi

I'm new to modding (and this forum) but I've run into some issues.

I tried the Minecraft Forum, but couldn't get any answers there (no one knew what the problem exactly was)

 

This is my problem: When i try to run setupDecompWorkspace, i get this error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

 

* What went wrong:

Execution failed for task ':downloadClient'.

> java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)

 

This is the full log- https://gist.github.com/CrossAvenger/3e05ecf1b0745c596861

 

I've been trying to find an answer to this issues for a few days now, but have only succeeded in changing the error message once or twice (before it failed at decompileMC, but that went away with the new forge build -1.8.9-11.15.0.1705-mdk).

 

Any suggestions?

Yes i've heard before that the download seems to be broken. It seems that no one else has noticed this, so it is most likely on my-side (sad to say).

My internet is very slow (wireless... up-north... middle of winter) and the actual setup process only takes about 2 minutes until it reaches the download, where it takes over 10 minutes usually then fails. could it be that my connection is slow and wavering and the zip is being corrupted during the download?

Either that or, like you said, the zip on the server may be corrupted, but i think more people would notice if that were the case.

Hmmm. Downloaded the files myself... I don't have any similar error messages. Looks like it depends on your internet... I don't know to fix this exactly, but I could imagine this: Download the files yourself and put them in the desired folder (the links are in your log). Maybe your browser can download them "better"

So i tried again, this time instead of this message (one of the first lines on the log)

":downloadClient

java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid code -- missing end-of-block"

i get

":downloadClient

java.util.zip.ZipException: invalid distance too far back"

I'm guessing this is just more download failure. Oh and yes- this time the build took over 14 mins, most of that time being the downloadClient.

So i'll go with you're suggestion on downloading the files manually. Only problem, i'm not quite sure how.

Type in those links in your browser:

P.S.: Before this: Try to setup your Workspace like this:

1) gradlew setupDecompWorkspace --refresh-dependencies

2) gradlew setupDevWorkspace --refresh-dependencies

3) gradlew eclipse OR gradlew idea    (depending on your IDE)

      Help me with registries

      When you name a method like that, with no return value, it is a constructor. The constructor must have the same name as the class it constructs, in this case, ModItems. I would strongly advise reading up on some basic Java tutorials, because you will definitely be running into a lot more issues as you go along without the basics. *I should also add that the Forge documentation is a reference, not a tutorial. Even following tutorials, you should know Java basics, otherwise the smallest of mistakes will trip you up as you copy someone elses code.

      so, I'm starting modding and I'm following the official documantation for forge: https://docs.minecraftforge.net, but in the registries part it is not working as it is in the docs:   public class ModItems { private static final DeferredRegister<Item> ITEMS = DeferredRegister.create(ForgeRegistries.ITEMS, DarkStarvation.MOD_ID); public static final RegistryObject<Item> TEST_ITEM = ITEMS.register("test_item", () -> new Item(new Item.Properties())); public DarkStarvation(FMLJavaModLoadingContext context) { ITEMS.register(context.getModEventBus()); } } in 'public DarkStarvation(...' the DarkStarvation has this error: Invalid method declaration; return type required and the getModEventBus(): Cannot resolve method 'getModEventBus' in 'FMLJavaModLoadingContext' please help, I asked gpt but it is saying that I'm using an old method, but I'm following the latest version of Forge Docs???

      I merged your second post with the original , there is no need to post a new thread asking for an answer. If someone sees your post and can help, they will reply. If you are seeking a quicker response, you could try asking in the Minecraft Forge diacord.

      Cobblemon modpack keeps crashing idk why

      By TileEntity · Posted

      Create a new instance and start with cobblemon - if this works, add the rest of your mods in groups   Maybe another mod is conflicting - like Sodium/Iris or Radical Cobblemon Trainers
