vscode setup

[jagged mango]

I have been following "Setting up Visual Studio Code with Fabric" but I can´t manage to make autocomplete work.

Sorry for the non-answer, but you'll save yourself a lot of hassle if you use IntelliJ (the free version ofc)
https://docs.fabricmc.net/develop/getting-started/setting-up-a-development-environment
All the tooling is built for it.
There's also presets for Vscode hotkeys if that's something you want

[jagged mango]

my pc cant run intellij due to low specs

o7

Probably a missing extension

or Vscode my not be recognizing it as a valid project

can you run the project in debug?

[jagged mango]

I have these extensions

[sacred elk]

your extensions look fine.

[jagged mango]

soo?

[sacred elk]

does it say Java:Ready in the bottom left corner?

[sacred elk]

says that you are using the wrong version of java

what mincraft version are you using?

[jagged mango]

minecraft 1.20.1

[sacred elk]

in the find tab look of "17" in all the project files just to make sure java version isn't set to 17 somewhere in a gradle file or other settings file

[jagged mango]

yes it is

[sacred elk]

in build.gradle change it.options.release to 21

in mixins.json and client.mixins.json change compatibility to 21

also in build.gradle change sourceCompatibility and targetCompatibility to 21

[jagged mango]

i change everywhere it says java 17 to 21 but autocomplete still doesn´t work , it compiles

[sacred elk]

in settings search for javahome

[jagged mango]

should it be there?

[sacred elk]

the settings button in the bottom left

[jagged mango]

here?

[sacred elk]

Ya, search for javahome

There should be 2 or 3 references to it.

[jagged mango]

and now?

[low heron]

Um 1.20.1 is Java 17

!!jdk

[wicked ledge]

Adoptium (AdoptOpenJDK)

Java 21 for Minecraft 1.20.5 and later
Java 17 for Minecraft 1.17 to 1.20.4
Java 8 for Minecraft 1.16 and earlier

[sacred elk]

latest loom version uses java 21

[sacred elk]

in that field put the path to your java 21 jdk

[jagged mango]

i change that field but the autocomplete still doesnt work and shows this error

[sacred elk]

You can try checking the box for the maven - terminal settings below that.
Also try with nothing I. Nothing in the search bar, use the side bar to find the settings for the extension language support for java by red hat and settings the javahome path there as well.

[jagged mango]

i mark the check box and added the java home language support for java by red hat´s settings , now the error message changed

[sacred elk]

try running ./gradlew init

probably will fail

[sacred elk]

I think that the path for your javahome in your Gradle settings is wrong. try removing /bin

[jagged mango]

thx, now the autocomplete works, but there is an error in build.gradle

[sacred elk]

something must still be set to use version 17.

just double check for instances of 17 in reference to java in your project files

I am out of ideas

[jagged mango]

ok thx

really thx for your time

[warm oracle]

Sorry

Is it not possible to just not use latest version of loom?

I'm probably missing something here
