ask your author to provide a mcmod.info file

[Riprock]

When I made my mcmod.info file i put it in /src/main/resources and named it mcmod.info
Everything is done correctly and i used a sample mcmod.info file and edited it for my mod.
When i launch mc it say ask the mod author for a mcmod.info file.
I dont know what is wrong

Note:Im using intellij Idea

I'm going to guess IDEA 14, if so add this to build.gradle: idea { module {
inheritOutputDirs = true } }

cazzar what line do i put this on or where do i put it in the build.gradle file

[diesieben07]

Just at the end of the file.

[Riprock]

File name or in the code?

[diesieben07]

In the build.gradle.

[Riprock]

is it a process resource?

[AbrarSyed]

Just take this snippet:
idea { module { inheritOutputDirs = true } }
And paste it at the bottom of your build.gradle file.
Do NOT put it inside ANY {} blocks.

[Riprock]

I undertand that but would it go under process resources like this?

processResources
{
// this will ensure that this task is redone when the versions change.
inputs.property "version", project.version
inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

// replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else
from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
    include 'mcmod.info'

    // replace version and mcversion
    expand 'version':project.version, 'mcversion':project.minecraft.version
}

// copy everything else, thats not the mcmod.info
from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
    exclude 'mcmod.info'
}
idea { module {
    inheritOutputDirs = true } }

}

[Riprock]

or

processResources
{
// this will ensure that this task is redone when the versions change.
inputs.property "version", project.version
inputs.property "mcversion", project.minecraft.version

// replace stuff in mcmod.info, nothing else
from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
    include 'mcmod.info'

    // replace version and mcversion
    expand 'version':project.version, 'mcversion':project.minecraft.version
}

// copy everything else, thats not the mcmod.info
from(sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
    exclude 'mcmod.info'
}

}
idea { module {
inheritOutputDirs = true } }

like this outside of the project resources

[AbrarSyed]

as I said. Do NOT put it inside ANY {} blocks.

that means DO NOT put it in the processResources{} block.

[Riprock]

I did that and checked over my mcmod.info and everything matches but it doesnt load. It still says ask the author for the mcmod.info.
I did notice this if it is relevant:
[15:38:47] [Client thread/INFO] [FML]: Attempting connection with missing mods [mcp, FML, Forge, WineMod] at CLIENT
[15:38:47] [Client thread/INFO] [FML]: Attempting connection with missing mods [mcp, FML, Forge, WineMod] at SERVER

Also you can go through my code to see if i messed up anywhere else

[AbrarSyed]

You also need to ensure that the modid specified in your @mod matches the modid specified in the mcmod.info file.
You may also have to refresh IDEA to ensure that the changes to your build.gradle have taken affect.

[Riprock]

Just Checked the @mod and refreshed everything but for some reason it still doesn't recognize the mcmod.info file.
What is wrong?

For me everything is OK with Intellij IDEA.
I think you did not import the project correctly.
You can try to close Intellij IDEA and delete everything but :

• src/
• gradle/
• build.gradle
• gradlew
• gradlew.bat

And then you do :
gradlew setupDecompWorkspace --refresh-dependencies
gradlew idea

And then you import your project on IDEA from the .iml file or the .ipr (= IntelliJ IDEA Project File)
DO NOT IMPORT FROM THE BUILD.GRADLE !

(And finally you can do "gradlew gIR" to be able to run Minecraft from the IDE if you want it)

It works for me (but I have multiple mods (modules) in my workspace so I import the .iml and I create the run configuration manually)
