Topic category: Troubleshooting, bugs, and solutions

I tried to export a small mod that I have made. It includes no mechanic. Just few blocks, thats all. When I try to export it, it says that there are errors, but lists me none. When I say remove mods with errors, it wont remove any mods. So, it says error fo no reason.

Yeah, for whatever reason, there has been a bug with recent versions of MCreator, where sometimes when you make mod elements... They don't actually save other than in the workspace.

SOLUTION:

[IMPORTANT!] Backup your current workspace (export as MCR file)
Look at the error, and delete all listed mod elements
- Example: [spoiler]cannot find symbol
  mcreator_mushroomPlant mcreator_19 = new mcreator_mushroomPlant();
  ^[/spoiler]
Try to export again
If you deleted all listed mod elements ([spoiler]The example shows the specific placement of elements needed to be deleted in bold[/spoiler]) then it should succeed
[UNTESTED] Try reloading the backup workspace that was giving errors before and exporting it again but without deleting anything. I would assume that because the "nonexistent" elements are saved as part of the workspace and you can still open them and their settings will all be the same, then maybe reloading the workspace will possibly fix this issue?

You, too, this happens when you export?
