bocaj1234567 Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 I downloaded forge and they now make it easier by making it so you only have to download the forge source and run the install.bat. Could I make a jar mod AND a forge mod at the SAME TIME using the mcp downloaded from forge?
holymage! Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 why would you ever want a jar mod....i'll be the one to ask that WHY!
bocaj1234567 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Posted January 14, 2013 why would you ever want a jar mod....i'll be the one to ask that WHY! Well I just basically want to know how to make more than one mod at once easily. One could be a jar mod...
holymage! Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 someone can correct me if i am wrong but a jar mod is basically going the dong princess route and modding base class files, which makes your mod imcompatibale with 99.9999999999% of mods using forge you could still make a jar mod...but you might have issues and such making it not a jar mod means it compatable with 99.9999% of mods.... again correct me if i am wrong
gotyaoi Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 You really need to put these in the modder's metropolis area, specifically the "mod makers market". Also need to stop repeating yourself. As to your question, it's fine to make a mod that utilizes both forge and base class edits, what you call a jar mod. If you want to make sure your edit is at least compatible with forge, just don't edit any classes that forge edits. If you want to make sure your mod is compatible with other mods that do base class edits, find out what they edit and avoid those classes. It can still be a headache, so avoid base class edits when possible.

Teraku Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Making a jar mod (base class/core mod) is okay, as long as you have a good reason. NEI has a good reason. EE3 doesn't, hence why it's a forgemod. If it takes 1 hour extra work to make your mod a forgemod instead of a core mod, then take that extra hour.
