It seems that there are 3 problems in the current download that make the setup fail.

 

1. install.cmd still tries to use MCP's python.

2. Automatically downloading and extracting MCP doesn't work when mcp_dir is set to the parent directory, because it expects that the folder doesn't exist. Needs to be changed manually. (Not sure if it's supposed to be like that.)

3. Eclipse folder does not get replaced, code seems to be commented out..?

 

I hope I could be of some help.

 

 

To anyone freshly downloading MCP and forge, and getting 6000+ errors in eclipse: Close eclipse, delete mcp/eclipse, replace it with mcp/forge/fml/eclipse. (Thanks luacs1998)

Adding to EAQ.

(can't believe it slipped my mind to do so, irc too distracting?)

When I try to run forge's install.cmd without mcp it states:

The system cannot find the path specified.
Press any key to continue . . .

Yes, that would be fixed by changing it to use the python binary which FML now includes. Edit the second line in the file to fml\python\python_fml install.py. Don't forget to change mcp_dir in the install.py file to "mcp" or something, or "../mcp" if you want it in the parent directory, it will create a folder with that name.

 

edit: Or do it like usual, download mcp and put forge in, then you only need to replace the eclipse folder.

Which is why auto mcp downloading is retarded, I personally prefer to install it myself.

I wouldn't say that, it works great actually. In the future I'll only have to download forge :)

Hi there,

 

I recently tried setting up Forge and MCP using both the manual method (grabbing all the jars and such by hand) and the method described by the wiki, which was to just add Forge into MCP, and run install.cmd. Both times resolved in the error you mentioned above. I tried your fix, both by pointing eclipse to using the folder you specified, and by copy and pasting that folder into MCP's root folder, and then pointing eclipse to that.

 

Both times, I now resolve in 8 errors. These all reference the external libraries:

 

guava-12.0.1.jar

asm-all-4.0.jar

argo-2.25.jar

minecraft.jar

lwjgl.jar

jinput.jar

 

Whats weird is all of these can be found in my "jars" folder in MCP. As well as that, they have full drop downs in the Minecraft project folder. Any ideas on what could help?

Riizu, you don't actually have to do that much. To make sure you won't have any problems I suggest setting it up from the beginning again.

 

- Get MCP, extract it wherever you want. (I'll call the folder "mcp" here.)

- Get forge, extract the folder to mcp/forge.

- Run mcp/forge/install.cmd.

- Delete the folder mcp/eclipse.

- Copy the folder mcp/forge/fml/eclipse to mcp/eclipse.

- Start up eclipse.

- Start modding.

- ? ? ? ?

- Profit!

 

Forge will download Minecraft and all other needed files automatically.

I've reverted the recomended back to 411 which should fix almost all of these.

Interesting that the people I asked to test it didn't give me any errors, oh well.

 

 

Anyways, MCP downloading is there because people don't know how to do things properly.

If you are to dense to figure it out you can STILL use it in the EXACT same manor as you always have, and it will automatically detect that MCP is in the folder above it.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

Well apparently that caused even more problems than there should be.

 

At least I can still use the usual method

Agree with him.

There is a way to fix it though (ie: don't extract eclipse from mcp zip, just copy forge's one there)

^^ That's for you Lex/cpw.

It cleans up a lot of issue that people have especially the people who like to hook there mods into auto building systems.

Anyways all this shit is fixed, as its all FML issues.

Just need to wait till the next time we sync things with FML, Which will have a lot more changes then just the workspace and downloads.

Shit break while they are being re-written, deal with it.

Nothing that has happened has been a show stopper, no more then 30 seconds for you, the modder, to work around on your end.

When I try to run forge's install.cmd without mcp it states:

The system cannot find the path specified.
Press any key to continue . . .

It also  shows when you have no internet connexion I believe...

 

Tried the usual manual installation procedure and still get this. (MCodingPack 7.23 and forge folder (6.4.1.435) inside)

Copying the eclipse folder (from forge to main folder) doesn't help. Or naming the main folder "mcp" for that matter.

 

When trying to run python without "install.cmd" , got a "python_fml isn't a valid win32 application". Could it be a bad version of python or something ?

 

I am on Vista(x86)SP2. My latest manual installation (forge 6.4.1.410) worked, so I'll stick with that for the moment.

 

edit: Forge"Readme" file says something about fernflower decompiler at http://goo.gl/PnJHp (address which doesn't work :/ ) ?

edit: Fix work for forge 6.4.1.430.

    • I know that this may be a basic question, but I am very new to modding. I am trying to have it so that I can create modified Vanilla loot tables that use a custom enchantment as a condition (i.e. enchantment present = item). However, I am having trouble trying to implement this; the LootItemRandomChanceWithEnchantedBonusCondition constructor needs a Holder<Enchantment> and I am unable to use the getOrThrow() method on the custom enchantment declared in my mod's enchantments class. Here is what I have so far in the GLM:   protected void start(HolderLookup.Provider registries) { HolderLookup.RegistryLookup<Enchantment> registrylookup = registries.lookupOrThrow(Registries.ENCHANTMENT); LootItemRandomChanceWithEnchantedBonusCondition lootItemRandomChanceWithEnchantedBonusCondition = new LootItemRandomChanceWithEnchantedBonusCondition(0.0f, LevelBasedValue.perLevel(0.07f), registrylookup.getOrThrow(*enchantment here*)); this.add("nebu_from_deepslate", new AddItemModifier(new LootItemCondition[]{ LootItemBlockStatePropertyCondition.hasBlockStateProperties(Blocks.DEEPSLATE).build(), LootItemRandomChanceCondition.randomChance(0.25f).build(), lootItemRandomChanceWithEnchantedBonusCondition }, OrichalcumItems.NEBU.get())); }   Inserting Enchantments.[vanilla enchantment here] actually works but trying to declare an enchantment from my custom enchantments class as [mod enchantment class].[custom enchantment] does not work even though they are both a ResourceKey and are registered in Registries.ENCHANTMENT. Basically, how would I go about making it so that a custom enchantment declared as a ResourceKey<Enchantment> of value ResourceKey.create(Registries.ENCHANTMENT, ResourceLocation.fromNamespaceAndPath([modid], [name])), declared in a seperate enchantments class, can be used in the LootItemRandomChanceWithEnchantedBonusCondition constructor as a Holder? I can't use getOrThrow() because there is no level or block entity/entity in the start() method and it is running as datagen. It's driving me nuts.
    • Hi here is an update. I was able to fix the code so my mod does not crash Minecraft. Please understand that I am new to modding but I honestly am having a hard time understanding how anyone can get this to work without having extensive programming and debugging experience as well as searching across the Internet, multiple gen AI bots (claude, grok, openai), and examining source code hidden in the gradle directory and in various github repositories. I guess I am wrong because clearly there are thousands of mods so maybe I am just a newbie. Ok, rant over, here is a step by step summary so others can save the 3 days it took me to figure this out.   1. First, I am using forge 54.1.0 and Minecraft 1.21.4 2. I am creating a mod to add a shotgun to Minecraft 3. After creating the mod and compiling it, I installed the .jar file to the proper directory in Minecraft and used 1.21.4-forge-54.1.0 4. The mod immediately crashed with the error: Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Item id not set 5. Using the stack trace, I determined that the Exception was being thrown from the net.minecraft.world.item.Item.Properties class 6. It seems that there are no javadocs for this class, so I used IntelliJ which was able to provide a decompiled version of the class, which I then examined to see the source of the error. Side question: Are there javadocs? 7. This method, specifically, was the culprit: protected String effectiveDescriptionId() {      return this.descriptionId.get(Objects.requireNonNull(this.id, "Item id not set"));  } 8. Now my quest was to determine how to set this.id. Looking at the same source file, I determined there was another method:  public Item.Properties setId(ResourceKey<Item> pId) {             this.id = pId;             return this;   } 9. So now, I need to figure out how to call setId(). This required working backwards a bit. Starting from the constructor, I stubbed out the variable p which is of type Item.Properties public static final RegistryObject<Item> SHOTGUN = ITEMS.register("shotgun", () -> new ShotgunItem(p)); Rather than putting this all on one line, I split it up for readability like this: private static final Item.Properties p = new Item.Properties().useItemDescriptionPrefix().setId(rk); Here is was the missing function, setId(), which takes a type of ResourceKey<Item>. My next problem is that due to the apparent lack of documentation (I tried searching the docs on this site) I could not determine the full import path to ResourceKey. I did some random searching on the Internet and stumbled across a Github repository which gave two clues: import net.minecraft.resources.ResourceKey; import net.minecraft.resources.ResourceLocation; Then I created the rk variable like this: private static ResourceKey<Item> rk = ResourceKey.create(Registries.ITEM, ResourceLocation.parse("modid:shotgunmod")); And now putting it all together in order: private static ResourceKey<Item> rk = ResourceKey.create(Registries.ITEM, ResourceLocation.parse("modid:shotgunmod")); private static final Item.Properties p = new Item.Properties().useItemDescriptionPrefix().setId(rk); public static final RegistryObject<Item> SHOTGUN = ITEMS.register("shotgun", () -> new ShotgunItem(p)); This compiled and the mod no longer crashes. I still have more to do on it, but hopefully this will save someone hours. I welcome any feedback and if I missed some obvious modding resource or tutorial that has this information. If not, I might suggest we add it somewhere for people trying to write a mod that doesn't crash. Thank you !!!  
    • I will keep adding to this thread with more information in case anyone can help, or at the very least I can keep my troubleshooting organized. I decided to downgrade to 54.1.0 in the hopes that this would fix the issue but it didn't. At least now I am on a "recommended" version. The crash report did confirm my earlier post that the Exception is coming from effectiveDescriptionId(). I'll continue to see if I can find a way to set the ID manually.   Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Item id not set         at java.base/java.util.Objects.requireNonNull(Objects.java:259) ~[?:?]         at TRANSFORMER/[email protected]/net.minecraft.world.item.Item$Properties.effectiveDescriptionId(Item.java:465) ~[forge-1.21.4-54.1.0-client.jar!/:?]         at TRANSFORMER/[email protected]/net.minecraft.world.item.Item.<init>(Item.java:111) ~[forge-1.21.4-54.1.0-client.jar!/:?]         at TRANSFORMER/[email protected]/com.example.shotgunmod.ShotgunItem.<init>(ShotgunItem.java:19) ~[shotgunmod-1.0.0.jar!/:1.0.0]         at TRANSFORMER/[email protected]/com.example.shotgunmod.ModItems.lambda$static$0(ModItems.java:15) ~[shotgunmod-1.0.0.jar!/:1.0.0]         at TRANSFORMER/[email protected]/net.minecraftforge.registries.DeferredRegister$EventDispatcher.lambda$handleEvent
