Core Modding #109

Closed terminated-star closed 2 years ago

terminated-star commented 2 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to create a core mod, I am using the example project as my base. I haven't created a core mod before, so I am not very knowledgeable in this area. I was following this tutorial and to register my mod as a core mod, I needed to add -Dfml.coreMods.load=example.Plugin to my VM options, but when I do, nothing changes (my core mod isn't ran). I am guessing that in newer versions of ForgeGradle this option was removed, and possibly forge automatically detects them(?). The core mod does register if I run the game with the MANIFEST.MF file stating that it is a core mod, but then I need to build and then manually merge the manifest file in the compiled jar file, which is pretty time consuming.

Thanks!

I figured it out! I fixed it by adding the following to my build.gradle:

jar {
    manifest {
        attributes(
                "FMLCorePluginContainsFMLMod": true,
                "FMLCorePlugin": "example.Plugin"
        )
    }
}

FMLCorePluginContainsFMLMod isn't necessary if your mod isn't also a regular mod, and FMLCorePlugin should be the class that implements IFMLLoadingPlugin.
