Minecraftforge: Disable backup feature on mod changes

Created on 23 Nov 2014  路  7Comments  路  Source: MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge

Hey,

is there any way to disable the backup feature which comes with the /fml confirm when a mod has been removed?

On a high end computer it takes about 40 minutes to create this backup although the world is only 12gb big. When doing the backup my self it is done in 1-2 minutes (fully done, no kernel backend tasks).

I do fully understand this feature and think it is one of the best for the average user but with big worlds and a lot of experimenting it does cause a lot of long forced breaks.
If there is no way atm, I would like to suggest adding a small jvm argument that does allow to disable the backup feature the same way the auto confirm is done. :)

Add -Dfml.doNotBackup=true to your JVM args.

thanks a lot :)

How would that look in a .bat file? just wondering.

@Badcholo put this arg in the launcher profile.

@Badcholo
java -Xmx1G -Dfml.doNotBackup=true -jar forgeServerJarName.jar

Thanks

Is there any way do this without using a script? I am on a VPS and can't use scripts to do anything. Also, can't have it auto confirm as a result.
