When I try to set up MCreator, it gives me the error code: MCREATOR_SETUP_FAILED. It's not very descriptive. I'm running JRE 8 update 191 and macOS 10.14 if that helps. Error log:
Executing gradle command: cleanCache clean setupDecompWorkspace --refresh-dependencies

It seems that you have Java 10 installed too and set as the default Java on your system based on this error. And MCreator needs JDK, not JRE. I suggest you uninstall Java 10 and install JDK 8. Check this page for more info: https://mcreator.net/install/mac
