[1.8] Portable Version

[Lemcram]

I tried to install me the mdk for 1.8 on my USB drive. But when I open eclipse and select the project, then eclipse says ".project is missing". In the folder is a .project available.

 

I tried much things but nothing helped.

Can I do something, that I can use this on different computers? Because in school I have to present how to programming a mod and I can't setup it directly on our school PC's.

[Lemcram]

Only point it to the USB drive or to a certain folder?

[Lemcram]

Ok and do I need administrator rights for that or does it also works without?

In forge for 1.8, the forge folder is not itself the project folder, it's a workspace folder containing the project folder. Thus, import the project folder within the forge folder; or set the workspace to the forge folder. Don't import the forge folder itself. (At least, this was how it was set up when I worked with forge for 1.8 a couple of years ago.)

 

They changed this aspect of the setup sometime between 1.8 and 1.11.

Ok can you show me example for wich folder I have to import? Only the path or something, because I don't now exactly what you mean.

 

Or should I take a screenshot of the folder that you guys now how it is?

I'm looking at the latest forge MDK for 1.8 and they seem to have changed that anyway, so I guess that probably isn't your problem. I guess just try what diesieben suggested.

Sorry I'am very new at this topic. Can you tell me how I can change the environment variable? Everything I thought how it works doesn't work.

I have done this now with the system settings but I can only do this as admin. Is there another option to do it as normal user?

[Lemcram]

I have set the variable and put the gradle wrapper in there. Then I run the setup, that worked. But if i start eclipse then I have the same error.

Ok I have imported the project, that I created before I tried to install it on my USB drive and now it works. On my PC if it woks on another I have to see.

 

Ok I had to set the environvent variable and then import the project.
