Missing ModLoader in file (main)

Posted October 30, 20204 yr

I get this error whenever I try to run some test mod that I made because I decided to learn Forge modding

Since I can't see the error, I'm gonna guess that it's telling you don't have a supplied mod loader or loader version since they are attached to the mods list instead of being global.

They did. It was their starting post. Also, it seems that my hypothesis was correct. the mods.toml is ordered by the default in the mdk. This means you moved the variables around expecting it to work. However, the brackets indicates that whatever comes afterwards is applied to the specific mod and not global information. The modloader and version are global information that must be known independent of the mod. Please look at a default mods.toml and order your variables accordingly.

You're right it needs to be above it, apparently I have them mixed up

New Forum Design/Update: Issues and Suggestions

Hiho,

first of all I want to say that the new forum design looks really good.

However, there are currently two issues:

In the "Unread" section, the "Mark all as Read" feature seems to be missing - or am I just overlooking it somewhere?
Some threads don’t automatically get marked as read when you open them. So the post still shows up in "Unread," even though you’ve already viewed it.
Example Thread: https://forums.minecraftforge.net/topic/159415-cannot-find-client-log-entries/

Then I have a smaller suggestion, referring to the Text Editor:

It is possible to move out the "Inline Code"-Feature from the "More Formatting Options" and add it directly to the Text Editor Tool Bar?
Same for "Quote"-Feature inside the Create Section

These two features are used quite often (at least by me) - as far as I remember, they were also available in the old forum design.
