Why are you attempting to open a mod jar with safari?

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

Wait, what exact steps are you taking?

Is this a situation where you downloaded a file and the browser prompts you to open or save it and you're selecting "open"?

First of all, yes I have gotten a JDK (the newest) and a JRE. I don't know how to fix this. I've skimmed the entire internet HELP PLEASE! I downloaded / am trying to download the twilight forest mod here: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/the-twilight-forest/download but it will say "Safari is not allowed to open Java Jar files". I've searched everywhere and I've already asked this before, but no-one seems to know how to fix it. I've used Fire-fox as-well but it'll say "Firefox is not allowed to open Java Jar files". Please help!

I wanted to get a mod so I downloaded Twilight Forest, it said: “twilightforest-1.12.2-3.9.984-universal (3).jar” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. I said "Open Anyway" in system preferences in security (I have a MacBook Air) and then it said: ”twilightforest-1.12.2-3.9.984-universal (3).jar” cannot be opened because Google Chrome is not allowed to open Java JAR files. After I checked the console error.

So you have the Jar file download onto your computer? Good just move it into the .minecraft/mods folder and launch forge.

If you don't have forge installed you need to install it. You will need to download it from here. It will be a jar file you will need to run it with the javaw application. If it doesn't give you this option and you don't want to find it in your program files folders you can instead just download and run this as long as you do have Java installed.

Don't make duplicate threads

It sounds like you're telling Chrome to run the file instead of saving it, this is not what you want.

      Forge 1.21 – How can I add a custom HUD Overlay (Item Icon + Text)

      By OhOhIWontLetUGo · Posted

      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!

      [Help] How to update a mod from 1.19.2 to 1.20.1

      By Ugdhar · Posted

      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!

      Crash the server

      By Ugdhar · Posted

      Does it still crash if you remove holdmyitems? Looks like that mod doesn't work on a server as far as I can tell from the error.
