Config file and gui config [1.8.9]

[F0X]

Hi there,

I'm trying to create a config file and a config gui for my mod,

but unfortunately I'm using 1.8 and all everything I could find was using the @ Config annotation, which doesn't seem present in 1.8.

I found this tutorial, which seems to work, but it doesn't tell you how to create a config, it just references a non working link to the forge documentation (http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/How_to_make_an_advanced_configuration_file).

Does anyone know how to create a proper config?

Anything below 1.9 is no longer supported on this forum and you've just discovered yet another reason why. Update to a modern version of minecraft to receive support.

I'm sorry but this is so stupid, I know newer versions have more features and stuff, but thats no reason to just quit supporting older versions, there are many people like me, that are into PvP and still want to play 1.8 or even 1.7.

That's not the reason old versions are not supported. There have been too many changes, we simply can't provide support when most of the things were changed - like the registry events, or the annotation config system which is the issue you ran into.

I understant your point and if you dont want to help me or dont know the answer yourself, thats no problem. But I believe there are enough people on this forum that have been creating mods a long time and still know about things from 1.8, so I think its just not fair no generally say "older versions are not supported, pls update".
