Today, my internet went down, and I was unable to work on my mod because early on, it tries to contact a server and fails without an internet connection.

Circumstance is setup in such a way that I'll have to have my internet down for an extended period of time in the near future, and modding is one of the few things holding my sanity together right now...

Why do I need an internet connection to build and run a forge mod, and how do I make it possible to work offline?

 

Apologies if there are major grammatical errors, I'm currently on mobile. Anrld unfortunately, before anyone brings it up, a mobilr hotspot isn't going to be feasible, as much as I'd like it to br...

Try using Gradle's offline switch, ForgeGradle just queries to make sure things are correct and up to date

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.

Due to legalities, we can not publish artifacts for you to download manually.

However, if you setup your workspace once, we heavily cache everything so that it wont need to download them again.

So yes, using the offline switch, and having set it up once while online, should be good enough.

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