i fixed it by changing the gradle-wrapper.properties, i needed to change the distributionUrl. (.\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties) but now it gives me another error exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at org.gradle.wrapper.BootStrapMainStarter.start<BootstrapMainStarter.java:34> at org.gradle.wrapper.WrapperExecutor.execute<WrapperExecutor.java:127> at org.gradle.wrapper.GradleWrapperMain.main<GradleWrapperMain.java:61>

please help me

Ok, so what I would recommend is a fresh install of gradle. Now what you could do is update the gradle for the project or gradle as a whole, it shouldn't matter. The command to update gradle for the project is gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=4.2 for the whole of gradle: gradle wrapper --gradle-version=4.2 They should update gradle. You could also just enter the gradle version you are currently on to do a fresh reinstall

[raphaeliG]

do i need to update the %Path% system variable aswell?

[raphaeliG]

and do i need to change the gradle-wrapper.properties?

[CJMinecraft01]

No you shouldn't have to

[raphaeliG]

then it still doesn't work

[CJMinecraft01]

Strange, try making a backup of the gradle folder and then deleting the old one. It should re download gradle

[raphaeliG]

which gradle? the one in the project folder or the one installed in c:/Gradle?

[CJMinecraft01]

the one in c:/Gradle . Make a backup first

[raphaeliG]

It works now!

but it also gives me a new problem...

on recompileMC:

[raphaeliG]

please help

I'm not that familiar with the variables on windows 7 but what are your Path and possibly Java_Home variables set to?

[raphaeliG]

my path is set to the bin folder of the jdk. do i need a java home variable? what should i set it to? and if so, how come that modding tools like MCreator, which also uses the forge mdk, works perfectly fine on my computer?

[Fr1me]

Try putting your Java_Home to the jdk folder itself.

[raphaeliG]

trying it now... in the meantime, maybe i should downdate (like update but the opposite) my java 1.8?

[raphaeliG]

tried what you said(without what i said), still doesn't work `Checking for updates at URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CJMinecraft01/ForgeModBuilder/master/update.json No update found Loaded project: C:\Users\user\Desktop\materiamod, MC: 1.12.2, Forge: 14.23.4.2729, MCP: snapshot_20171003 Setting up project: C:\Users\user\Desktop\materiamod, MC: 1.12.2, Forge: 14.23.4.2729, MCP: snapshot_20171003 Setting editor to eclipse Ran gradlew command: gradlew setupDecompWorkspace eclipse Starting a Gradle Daemon, 1 busy and 2 incompatible Daemons could not be reused, use --status for details

Open up gradle.properties, how much ram do you have allocated?

[raphaeliG]

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx3G

looks like 3 gigs of ram if I am correct

[raphaeliG]

and i have a total of 8 gigs, so that should be fine

[CJMinecraft01]

Ok, try running using cmd in the project folder. Currently (and this is a know issue) FMB does not log any errors in the console

[raphaeliG]

tried... but the moment it fails the command prompt shuts down not letting me see what was the error. the previous screenshot I took was a lucky shot, and I can't take another one

[raphaeliG]

I even tried writing pause in the batch file, but it seems to ignore that

[CJMinecraft01]

Try in the project folder, pressing SHIFT and right clicking and press open command prompt here (or powershell). If powershell then type cmd first and then try executing the command.

[raphaeliG]

Worked! it's a NullPointerException. But how do i fix it?

[CJMinecraft01]

Ok, great. So try adding --stacktrace to the end of the command and see what it says

[raphaeliG]

done it,

[CJMinecraft01]

Can you show your build.gradle file please?

[raphaeliG]

sure

Try running gradlew clearCache and then run the previous command

[raphaeliG]

didn't work, but gradlew cleanCache did

[CJMinecraft01]

Same issue?

[raphaeliG]

no, but now it freezes in downloadServer, or it just takes lonnnnng timmmeee

[CJMinecraft01]

That's because we cleaned the cache. It should redownload forge gradle hopefully

[raphaeliG]

ok. btw, is there a chance that it's because i'm using a laptop? someone told that could be the case...

[CJMinecraft01]

I highly doubt that. Just let the task finish. If it breaks again, let me know

[raphaeliG]

same problem again NullPointerException when doing the task recompileMC

[CJMinecraft01]

Try creating a new project and see if the error happens again

[raphaeliG]

we're back to "couldn't determine java version from '10.0.1'"

[CJMinecraft01]

What java version are you using?

[raphaeliG]

jdk? 10.0.1

[CJMinecraft01]

You need java 8 so a java 8 jdk

[raphaeliG]

thank you so much you can't even think to yourself how long was I looking for the solution to this. but why doesn't java 10 work?

[strikerrocker]

Java 9 or above isnt supported by forge or mojang so with updated java there will be quite a no of errors in internals of both until they decide to take their time to update we cant use newer versions of java at all
