Hello,

 

I was wondering how Forge worked. Where is the JAR downloaded? Since the normal minecraft.jar doesn't include any interfaces for importing classes from mods, I thought it wouldn't be possible to only use a JSON?

I know Forge.jar is downloaded somewhere in the "libraries"-folder, but where exactly? And I'd like to know how the MDK works exactly. Wouldn't it work to use the normal java compiler via "javac -jar"?

How is a mod assembled? The gradle.bat doesn't include any interfaces for a java-compiler. Does it start an extern jar which compiles the mod class by class and then just assembles the files into a JAR Forge can use?

Oh and, since I'm Austrian, I could translate Forge into German. And the "special" language we speak in Austria. Minecraft has that language too, but I don't think that even the German guys here would understand it. "Austrian" is pretty difficult, we speak like a mix of English, German, and some language no one understands.

 

I want a DETAILED explanation, I know how it works. It just imports mods or assembles them. But I want to know how it exactly works. I have a bit Java knowledge and I'm good at understanding code in almost every programming language. So, you can spam me with commands.

Post Skriptum: I have a bit knowledge in Java, very much in Batch, very little in HTML, a bit JSON, a bit XML, and I can print a message in C++. That means, I could, if the stupid IDE wouldn't refuse to understand C++-commands.

Post Post Skriptum: I know it really doesn't belong here, but it would be nice if you could post some easy-to-use-compiler for C++. I only needs something that can convert files into the code the computer understands.

Post Post Skriptum: Sorry for spamming Post Skriptums.

If you can't give a very detailed explanation, ignore this topic.

Oh, and I wrote some kind of engine for all Batch software I made. It includes a Forge interface, and a tool for managing Sourcecode in every language.

Don't expect any download links, it's not that great, it's in German, and the license and the copyright-protection makes copying impossible.

    • After some time minecraft crashes with an error. Here is the log https://drive.google.com/file/d/1o-2R6KZaC8sxjtLaw5qj0A-GkG_SuoB5/view?usp=sharing
    • The specific issue is that items in my inventory wont stack properly. For instance, if I punch a tree down to collect wood, the first block I collected goes to my hand. So when I punch the second block of wood to collect it, it drops, but instead of stacking with the piece of wood already in my hand, it goes to the second slot in my hotbar instead. Another example is that I'll get some dirt, and then when I'm placing it down later I'll accidentally place a block where I don't want it. When I harvest it again, it doesn't go back to the stack that it came from on my hotbar, where it should have gone, but rather into my inventory. That means that if my inventory is full, then the dirt wont be picked up even though there should be space available in the stack I'm holding. The forge version I'm using is 40.3.0, for java 1.18.2. I'll leave the mods I'm using here, and I'd appreciate it if anybody can point me in the right direction in regards to figuring out how to fix this. I forgot to mention that I think it only happens on my server but I'm not entirely sure. PLEASE HELP ME!

    • Hi everyone, I'm currently developing a Forge 1.21 mod for Minecraft and I want to display a custom HUD overlay for a minigame. My goal: When the game starts, all players should see an item/block icon (from the base game, not a custom texture) plus its name/text in the HUD – similar to how the bossbar overlay works. The HUD should appear centered above the hotbar (or at a similar prominent spot), and update dynamically (icon and name change as the target item changes). What I've tried: I looked at many online tutorials and several GitHub repos (e.g. SeasonHUD, MiniHUD), but most of them use NeoForge or Forge versions <1.20 that provide the IGuiOverlay API (e.g. implements IGuiOverlay, RegisterGuiOverlaysEvent). In Forge 1.21, it seems that neither IGuiOverlay nor RegisterGuiOverlaysEvent exist anymore – at least, I can't import them and they are missing from the docs and code completion. I tried using RenderLevelStageEvent as a workaround but it is probably not intended for custom HUDs. I am not using NeoForge, and switching the project to NeoForge is currently not an option for me. I tried to look at the original minecraft source code to see how elements like hearts, hotbar etc are drawn on the screen but I am too new to Minecraft modding to understand. What I'm looking for: What is the correct way to add a custom HUD element (icon + text) in Forge 1.21, given that the previous overlay API is missing? Is there a new recommended event, callback, or method in Forge 1.21 for custom HUD overlays, or is everyone just using a workaround? Is there a minimal open-source example repo for Forge 1.21 that demonstrates a working HUD overlay without relying on NeoForge or deprecated Forge APIs? My ideal solution: Centered HUD element with an in-game item/block icon (from the base game's assets, e.g. a diamond or any ItemStack / Item) and its name as text, with a transparent background rectangle. It should be visible to the players when the mini game is running. Easy to update the item (e.g. static variable or other method), so it can change dynamically during the game. Any help, code snippets, or up-to-date references would be really appreciated! If this is simply not possible right now in Forge 1.21, it would also help to know that for sure. Thank you very much in advance!
    • The simple answer is there is not an easy way. You would need to know how to program in Java, as well as at least some familiarity with how Forge works so you could port the differences. You would also need the sourcecode for the original mod, and permission from the author to modify it, if they did not use some sort of open source license. So it's not impossible, but it would take some effort, but doing so would open up a whole new world of possibilities for you!
