Dinnerbone recently mentioned a change to the licence that governs the obfuscation mappings. Do these new terms allow for their use in Forge (I know that the initial licence made it so that they were not particularly useful).

We've answered this a few times.

As it sits, nothing has changed. The new terms are just as restrictive as the old ones are. So we're continuing as normal for now.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

They need to not have the slightest possibility that Microsoft could decide they fucked up and shut down Forge.

 

Right now it sounds as if they're trying to make it sound friendly while leaving a loophole that will allow them to cover their asses at the expense of anyone trying to use the mappings.

Edit: For clarification, when I say "they" I mean MS's lawyers, not Mojang's Dev team

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.
