Hey guys, so I get my mod workin as expected and i'm glad ^^

I use gradle to build it and it works great though somethin 's botherin me :

I built it for 1.8.9 and 1.7.10; but now I see some cool mods aren't available for 1.8.9 but only for 1.8.1...

So I guess there is a way to publish a version for 1.8.x (without building for each version) currently my gradle build file contains somethin like the line below for 1.8.9 :

    version = "1.8.9-11.15.1.1722"

can i just change that to :

    version = "1.8.*" ?

sounds too good to be true..

Forge doesn't exist for 1.8.1, only 1.8, 1.8.8 and 1.8.9.

 

Unless your mod only touches a minimal amount of the Minecraft codebase, it likely won't be compatible with any version of Minecraft other than the one it was built for. You can't build a single project against multiple versions of Minecraft, though you can maintain a separate copy of the project for each version (as branches of a single repository or as completely separate repositories) and write a script to build them all at once.

Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future.

There are multiple layers of version compatibility, and sorting them out may be more trouble than it's worth, but...

 

While your mod will almost always need to run in a forge client or server for which it was compiled, it might be possible for one version of a client to log into and play nice with another version of the server. That means that you might be able to compile your mod in for each related MC version (1.8, 1.8.8, 1.8.9), put the right mod on each client and on each server, and then have some gap between server and its clients (use a 1.8.9 client to join a 1.8 world). I think that higher clients are more likely to play with lower servers than vice-versa, but I'm not sure.

 

My mods don't get spread widely enough to bother. I play my 1.7.10 world-server with a 1.7.10 client, and they all have the 1.7.10 versions of my mods; likewise 1.8. I'll skip 1.8.8 and 1.8.9 (and probably 1.9) to do 1.9.2. But that's just me.

 

The debugger is a powerful and necessary tool in any IDE, so learn how to use it. You'll be able to tell us more and get better help here if you investigate your runtime problems in the debugger before posting.

      Crash when starting server

      By Prins_Ed · Posted

      I have created a very simple mod that is just supposed to send a message to a player when they join. Upon adding it to a server (that has other mods on it), the following crash message appears: [12:13:01] [main/ERROR] [minecraft/Main]: Failed to start the minecraft server net.minecraftforge.fml.LoadingFailedException: Loading errors encountered: [         Epic Mod (epicmod) has failed to load correctly §7java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: net.ed.epicmod.EpicMod.<init>() ]         at net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoader.waitForTransition(ModLoader.java:243) ~[fmlcore-1.19.2-43.2.14.jar%23548!/:?] {}         at net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoader.lambda$dispatchAndHandleError$24(ModLoader.java:208) ~[fmlcore-1.19.2-43.2.14.jar%23548!/:?] {}         at java.util.Optional.ifPresent(Optional.java:178) ~[?:?] {re:mixin}         at net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoader.dispatchAndHandleError(ModLoader.java:208) ~[fmlcore-1.19.2-43.2.14.jar%23548!/:?] {}         at net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoader.lambda$gatherAndInitializeMods$14(ModLoader.java:185) ~[fmlcore-1.19.2-43.2.14.jar%23548!/:?] {}         at java.lang.Iterable.forEach(Iterable.java:75) ~[?:?] {re:mixin,re:computing_frames}         at net.minecraftforge.fml.ModLoader.gatherAndInitializeMods(ModLoader.java:185) ~[fmlcore-1.19.2-43.2.14.jar%23548!/:?] {}         at net.minecraftforge.server.loading.ServerModLoader.load(ServerModLoader.java:32) ~[forge-1.19.2-43.2.14-universal.jar%23552!/:?] {re:classloading}         at net.minecraft.server.Main.main(Main.java:113) ~[server-1.19.2-20220805.130853-srg.jar%23547!/:?] {re:classloading,re:mixin,pl:mixin:A}         at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) ~[?:?] {}         at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:77) ~[?:?] {}         at jdk.internal.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) ~[?:?] {}         at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:568) ~[?:?] {}         at net.minecraftforge.fml.loading.targets.CommonServerLaunchHandler.lambda$launchService$0(CommonServerLaunchHandler.java:29) ~[fmlloader-1.19.2-43.2.14.jar%2367!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.modlauncher.LaunchServiceHandlerDecorator.launch(LaunchServiceHandlerDecorator.java:30) [modlauncher-10.0.8.jar%2354!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.modlauncher.LaunchServiceHandler.launch(LaunchServiceHandler.java:53) [modlauncher-10.0.8.jar%2354!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.modlauncher.LaunchServiceHandler.launch(LaunchServiceHandler.java:71) [modlauncher-10.0.8.jar%2354!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.modlauncher.Launcher.run(Launcher.java:106) [modlauncher-10.0.8.jar%2354!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.modlauncher.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:77) [modlauncher-10.0.8.jar%2354!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.modlauncher.BootstrapLaunchConsumer.accept(BootstrapLaunchConsumer.java:26) [modlauncher-10.0.8.jar%2354!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.modlauncher.BootstrapLaunchConsumer.accept(BootstrapLaunchConsumer.java:23) [modlauncher-10.0.8.jar%2354!/:?] {}         at cpw.mods.bootstraplauncher.BootstrapLauncher.main(BootstrapLauncher.java:141) [bootstraplauncher-1.1.2.jar:?] {} Why could this be? I have tried using the mod on another forge server with only this mod installed and it works there. Is my mod somehow interfering with other mods? MC version is 1.19.2
