Build
Install JDK 25+, then build with Gradle:
./gradlew build
On Windows PowerShell, if the Unix wrapper script is not executable, run:
java -classpath gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.jar org.gradle.wrapper.GradleWrapperMain build
The built JAR is written to build/libs/.
Troubleshooting
Build says release version 25 not supported
Gradle is using an older JDK. Install JDK 25 and make sure JAVA_HOME or your IDE Gradle JVM points to it.
The mod does not respond
- Make sure 0xAI is enabled in Mod Menu or
config/oxai.json. - Check that Ollama is running with
ollama serve. - Check that the configured model is installed with
ollama list. - Verify that your message contains the configured trigger.
Replies are slow
- Use a smaller model such as
llama3.2:1b. - Lower
maxTokens. - Lower
contextMessages.
Connection refused
- Check
ollamaUrl. - Make sure Ollama is running on the configured host and port.
