idk what to try, i tried reading other posts, nothing worked for me
it may have automatically ported to 2026.2, but it's not like that for me, so...
https://mcreator.net/wiki/gradle-setup-errors someone posted this on another post, and it helped them with your exact problem. Seems this might work!
See this related topic: https://mcreator.net/forum/123362/snapshot-20262-createminecraftartifac…
it doesn't really seem to help me, one guy says "use proxy" which i can't, other guy says "look at https://mcreator.net/wiki/gradle-setup-errors", where i still didn't find a solution
for the record i changed nothing about my project, went to make tea, came back and it gave fails on building the project, i relaunched mcreator later and it started giving this error
