[1.12.2] Running other mods

[Merthew]

How would i get other mods to work in the modding environment? Like if i wanted jei or journeymap for testing.

Just put them in the run/mods folder if you just need them for testing. If you actually want mod integration then you need to add them as libraries through your build.gradle file or put them in the libs folder and add them as a library in your IDE.

I had the same problem and found the solution here: https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/4zp2ku/is_it_possible_to_add_mods_to_the_1102_forge_dev/  (by brute force googling)

 

Go to Run/"Run Configurations ...", select in tree left "Java Application"/<Name-of-your-ProjectFolder>_Client, go to "Arguments" Tab and remove in "VM arguments" "-DFORGE_FORCE_FRAME_RECALC=true" what should be the whole content of that textfield.

This stops FML/Gradle to use any mod in its deobfuscated version; what means methods names, variables etc. in the foreign mod jar file don't get renamed into a human readable version while loading.
With deobfuscation the mod become unable to load parts of itself by reference the name of classes/modules. If you want to add references to other mods (e.g. for dependencies) in your own mod you might need a more elaborated method.

I would love to see the forge documentation extended by a section that explains deobfuscation much better than I try to do in the lines above ...

Wrong mappings. Extra Utils is written for a more recent 1.12.x Mapping, and you've set up your dev environment with an older version. Take a look at their build.gradle file for the mappings they are using
