Posted April 10, 201312 yr since the 1.5 update i have been having problems with connecting via LAN after testing some possible reasons behind this, i have come to the conclusion that forge mod loader is not compatible with LAN connections right now even if both clients have the same mods. the only error that comes up is an unable to connect to server error, it does not crash the game though. i have come to this conclusion by the fact that i removed forge from my minecraft and i was able to do lan connections.
April 11, 201312 yr Same version of FML/Forge? Read the EAQ before posting! OR ELSE! This isn't building better software, its trying to grab a place in the commit list of a highly visible github project. www.forgeessentials.com Don't PM me, I don't check this account unless I have to.
April 11, 201312 yr Author Yes, i gave them an exact copy of my minecraft jar, which always has forge, and the lan didnt work. We downloaded vanilla and tested it and it worked. Since we also use optifine we added that and it still worked. Meaning that forge was causing the problem.
April 11, 201312 yr Just test in my network and lan games work just fine.... Logs and setup information. I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
April 13, 201312 yr Thats an interesting exception, seems to be something to do with the runtime deobfusication. However, there have been a few fixes to that seince the version you're using. You're on build 608, we are on build 652. So you're quite out of date. Try updating and see if that helps, I will however look into this more.

April 13, 201312 yr That log tells me you simply can't connect to the lan server, typically firewalls/whatever else is stopping you. Its not giving the method not found error, which means that the one you were having before was fixed. As I said, I have tested lan connections, and they work just fine with forge. Do you have a log of the other computer? I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
April 14, 201312 yr Author i do not, but i know what its not a firewall issue because we have lan connected the computers multiple times before 1.5 with forge installed. if its not directly a problem with forge ten do know what could be causing the problem.
