Adding jar files to existing environment (Solved)

[poopoodice]

It's been discussed for a long time, but none of the solutions worked for me (maybe I did not did them right).

So I have created another mod (basically a tool) and I want to use it in another environment, this is what I've tried:

 

1. run normal build ./gradlew.bat build, and then put built jar from lib into the mods folder.

2. run jar build ./gradlew.bat jar, and then put built jar from reobfJar into the mods folder.

3. build jar using existing ide options, and then put built jar from lib into the mods folder.

 

1 & 2 causes crashes, and 3 does not work at all (not detected).

 

What is the correct way of doing it in 1.16.4? Thanks.

 

Edit: local jars can be located by adding flatDir into repositories.
