i am following the ufficial forge documentation in order to start developing a mod for minecraft java edition 1.12, i have installed java 8 and it's default on my system(linux endeavour-os), here is my approach:
> install the mdk and spend 3 hours understanding why it's giving me 80 errors, which are:
(the error above was when i was accidentally tried to program for version 1.16, but I've also encountered it after switching the version)
> understand that i had to start "./gradlew genEclipseRuns" task -(i did with sudo privileges or else it didn't start, mostly for the access denied error [which is strange because i did a chmod +777 on the folder project]- BEFORE importing it to eclipse, and spend a LOT MORE time understanding why it won't import, and then look at some tutorial.
>the shows me another way to generate the files, which wasn't written on the documentation, with the following commands:
and then import. but it kept giving errors. so i've tried with VSCode (actually VScodium but it should work the same). but no luck.
what should i do lads? as long as i understood the documentation assumes all of this "genFiles" should be doing inside the IDE. (because it says "after generating the files press the refresh task button").
as of today i am unable to import the project without getting into problems, i don't know if it's the gradlew version (tried them all, from 7.3.3, 6.9, 4.9 to using the wrapper, the result is the same WallText of errors on eclipse)
on vscode it says
Could not run build action using connection to Gradle distribution 'https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.9-bin.zip'.
Could not create service of type ScriptPluginFactory using BuildScopeServices.createScriptPluginFactory().
Could not create service of type FileHasher using BuildSessionScopeServices.createFileSnapshotter().
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/User/Desktop/work/Programming/Java/ModMInecraft/.gradle/4.9/fileHashes/fileHashes.lock
(access denied)
/home/User/Desktop/work/Programming/Java/ModMInecraft/.gradle/4.9/fileHashes/fileHashes.lock
(access denied)
i don't know what to do, i followed every instruction and still get nothing.
tl;dr
how to import mdk, where to find another documentation, is there a community of developers on discord or something?
