1.13.2 - No Console Output?

[IceMetalPunk]

I just set up Forge for 1.13.2, and in an effort to ensure I set everything up correctly (since it's a bit different than older versions of Forge), I just ran the example mod under the Client configuration. It runs just fine... but I'm not seeing any of the example output. (I removed debug-level logging from the Java arguments, but as you can see, info-level logging shows up fine, just not the logs from the mod itself). I've attached the entire console logs from starting it, then quitting from the main menu without doing anything. In the main example mod code, there are logs like "HELLO FROM PREINIT" and such, but those didn't show up anywhere in the console.

Is there an extra step that I need to do besides importing the Gradle project and running the "eclipse" task? (The fact that the project shows in my Package Explorer just fine and also runs just fine would suggest I set it up mostly correctly... I just don't know why I'm not getting any of the mod output.)

have you tried the latest MDK?

Be warned, there are build.gradle changes

[IceMetalPunk]

I didn't realize there have been 22 revisions since I download the MDK about... 6 days ago? Well, I'll try the latest version and see if it fixes the problem; I'll report back here when I'm done.

1.13.2 is still very much in development and a build is created for each commit on the github so there will be many many versions.

Hm... the latest version won't build at all. I've gotten everything setup for Eclipse, and the project imported into Eclipse, but there are no configurations. When I try to run the Gradle "build" task, it fails, because it's looking in my JRE folder instead of my JDK folder. My JAVA_HOME environment variables are set to point to the JDK directory... is there somewhere else I need to change a path definition?

You can change it via gradle.properties in project root. Just put

org.gradle.java.home=<path>

into it

That worked, thanks! And now I'm going to have to ask what is likely a very stupid question... Until now, whenever I've worked with Forge (including the previous build for 1.13 from like a week or two ago), the Gradle build process has set up run configurations automatically. So I never really paid attention to the settings for the Client and Server run configs. This build didn't seem to do that; is there a quick rundown of what the various options need to be for each configuration? (That is, that main class for each, any required arguments, and any required environment variable setup.) I'm fine with the coding, but when it comes to IDE settings, I tend to feel a bit like a 5-year-old sometimes But of course I can't test if I can't run, so... yeah.

As for eclipse  - there is issue currently with eclipse not able to launch your mod using launch configuration. Use gradlew runClient instead.  In 1.12 eclipse is fine to both build and run. Hope same will be for 1.13.2

That's unfortunate... as far as I can tell, Eclipse doesn't have a terminal, and trying to look through output in PowerShell is... ugh. Well, I'll try and sort through it all and see if the problem is solved in the latest (ish) revision. Thanks to both of you!

On a bright side there is an update about eclipse. You need to edit launch and remove excessive mod mentions. It is mentioned in this commit:
