Well running the ant release it almost instantly fails.

Build script hasn't been updated since I re-organized the code base. I'll see about that later tonight. You should be able to modify your own copy easily enough however to fix it for yourself in the meantime.

Alright. Ill attempt to fix it for now :D

Oh my. Im an idiot! I created a new text document called build.properties before instead of saving it as a build.properties. Well it worked now so thank you :D

You're welcome :)

also thanks. that's what i did wrong too

It's working for me, follow that ^. You don't have a build.properties file.

I did follow that,and I had a build.properties file,it didnt work

Where? It should be in mcdev\source\Equivalent-Exchange-3 (where build.xml is located)

Yeah, re-reading this issue its another case of an incorrectly set up (or lacking) build.properties file. All variables in the ant script need values assigned to them in a build.properties file.

Im positive it was in the Equivalent-Exchange-3 folder along with build.xml

@pahimar Personally, I think that you should add a basedir attribute set to ../../ so that we don't get these errors anymore ;)
All the other properties can be considered as "optional".
@Beardlessbrady Check again!

Ill try again fresh and see if it works.

You'll know it works if you don't get a ${dir.development} string.
Format is like so:
dir.development=../../
release.mod.version=pre1f
...
