Welcome guys today we’re going to be setting up a minecraft mod let’s go ahead and get started with some of the things you’ll need so we’re going to go ahead and pull up a tab the first thing you’re going to need you’re going to need a forge This is minecraft forge 118 just go to minecraftforge.net 18.1 you want the mdk mod development kit and if this is your first time setting things up you’re going to also need intellij but i would highly recommend you go through some basic java tutorials before starting intellij you’re gonna want the Community edition i have ultimate but it’ll be the same process either way go ahead and get that skip this we’ll get our forge mdk go ahead and make a temp this is gonna be your mod name so i’m just gonna call it modding you’re gonna unzip all your Things into a folder so we got all of our mod things here it’s gonna be a little different for you but you know you open up your intellij so you’ll probably end up at one of these screens you’ll have no projects on it just go ahead and open find your project so this Is our modding folder that we just created on our desktop go ahead and trust it open all right so we have all of this it looks a little basic right now we have our source folder and all that that’s because it is doing its setup process in the background right Now for the first time doing this it’s probably going to take a pretty long while because i’m working on other mods in 118 it tends to reuse resources and it will go a lot faster one thing that you may have to do is it may say you need a project jdk Or an sdk you want coretto 17. all righty guys one more thing that i forgot to mention earlier when you go to project structure and it asks for an sdk when you first get you won’t have any go add sdk download jdk it’ll download a jdk list choose 17 Choose coretto just hit download it’ll install everything for you we just finished the initial setup which happens automatically when you open the project so we have this example mod file which i’m just going to leave if you want you can right click and you refactor it re Rename and you can change this directory typically it is your domain backwards and then the name of your project so this is the the standard setup this will run and initialize but it won’t add anything to the game it’ll just be an empty thing with some logger stuff and That’s it to actually run the game and you know have your mod built and everything you want to come into your gradle tab forge runs gin intellij runs and it’s going to go through it’s going to download all of the language stuff and all of the all the sound files for The launcher now that’s done we have these three these things you have client data and server and you want client that’s your minecraft client server is like say if you’re running just a minecraft a headless minecraft server so we’re gonna go ahead and run client and we’re gonna run that just in standard It’s gonna build our project another thing that is a bit of a side thing while this boots up if you’re having problems getting it to boot or getting it to load up go to your settings build tools build tools gradle and make sure that you have that set to project sdk so that You’re building with the same tools that you are doing code completion with and then we have a minecraft client that loaded up the check that our mod got loaded just open mods example mod there’s some example text that comes with it already so that’s how you for 118 you set up a Mod environment it’s pretty simple hello everybody sorry for such an abrupt ending i do have another episode already recorded for this and i apologize for all the jump cuts there was a lot of dead space in the episode if you liked what you saw here i Do do live streams on twitch.tv i’ll put the link down in the description i go down there and i do development streams on my modgenerotech if you’d like more information on it i try to jump in a stream i try to stream every day thank you so much for watching Video Information
