I’m working on a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.12 on Intellij. Like a lot of people I ran into the issue of assets not being loaded when running the game from the IDE. All solutions that I tried have failed so far:

A lot of people have suggested to add the code below to build.gradle, but it raises an error because classesDir is deprecated; replacing it with classesDirs raises another error.

sourceSets {
    main { output.resourcesDir = output.classesDir }
}

I changed the “Build and run using” setting from “Gradle” to “Intellij IDEA” in Build, Execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradle but I did not fix the problem either.

Additionally, when I try to build the jar, I get the following error: Entry assets/mccode/lang/en_us.lang is a duplicate but no duplicate handling strategy has been set. I don’t know what’s wrong here neither…

Here is the build.gradle script I’m using, as generated by Intellij:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        // These repositories are only for Gradle plugins, put any other repositories in the repository block further below
        maven { url = 'https://maven.minecraftforge.net' }
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath group: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle', name: 'ForgeGradle', version: '5.1.+', changing: true
    }
}

apply plugin: 'net.minecraftforge.gradle'

group = 'net.darmo_creations.mccode'
version = '1.0'

java {
    archivesBaseName = 'mccode'
    toolchain.languageVersion = JavaLanguageVersion.of(8)
}

minecraft {
    // The mappings can be changed at any time and must be in the following format.
    // Channel:   Version:

What am I doing wrong? I don’t understand why Intellij is not capable of properly setting up Forge projects by itself…

So, I got it working finally… I had to downgrade Gradle from 7.3 to 4.9, redo what I already did (add sourceSets { main { output.resourcesDir = output.classesDir } }, set Build and run using to Intellij IDEA) and, most importantly, add a pack.mcmeta to the resources directory.
