Hey, sorry to be a bother, but I've downloaded forge about 6 times now. Each time I download it and go through the procedures, it says that it's been successfully downloaded to Minecraft. Good, right? So, I check the .Minecraft folder (where it says it downloaded to) and nothing is there. I check everywhere, but there's nothing. I decide to play the game and hope for the best, but again it appears like forge isn't working. I've followed every tutorial, recent and old. I've made sure that everything is up-to-date and in the correct version. I even looked on this forum and saw that someone said to change the default application that opens files. Been there, done that. It seems like no matter what I do I can not download it properly! Please help, and thank you in advance :)

I'm not sure which file you are downloading, what procedures you are following, or what tutorials you are following.

Installing Forge is rather simple in my mind, download the installer for your desired version of Forge from the files page, run the installer, then open Minecraft and use the Forge launcher profile that the installer created for you.

In my case, on 1.12.2 Forge didn't create a launcher profile, I had to make a new profile and select the version if Forge I just installed

That's what I'm doing, and nothing works. No matter what I do nothing seems to work. I downloaded the file that works for my version of Minecraft, I downloaded the launcher for Windows, but nothing works. Any ideas?

You keep saying "nothing works". Please be more specific in what does not work and in what way. Provide screenshots, log files, descriptions on what you are doing and what's happening, anything.

(Sorry if this sounds odd, I'm not sure about the proper terms) I don't have any screenshots or log files, but I can try to describe. I download the installer thing for Windows, I go through the installing process, it says that it was properly installed. I open Minecraft, aware of what is supposed to happen if the installation process works, and nothing is changed.

So:

  • You do not see a new launcher profile.
  • You do not see a new version installed in the launcher.

Is that both correct? What launcher are you using?

yep! Again, sorry about wrong terminology, but are you asking about a Minecraft launcher, or an installer for forge? Thanks in advance

I did say "launcher", right? If I had meant the installer I would have said "installer".

So yes, what Minecraft launcher are you using?

      "gradlew eclipse" in a clean forge 1.13.2 fails

      By d0sboots · Posted 31 minutes ago

      I tried gradlew build --refresh-dependencies, it doesn't change anything. Remember, this happens even if the .gradle directory is completely deleted.   It looks like this got broken with https://github.com/MinecraftForge/ForgeGradle/pull/617. It appears to already by fixed in https://github.com/MinecraftForge/ForgeGradle/pull/635, but that PR hasn't been merged yet.

      Minecraft Core Issue/Forge Issue???

      By Rixxaw · Posted 42 minutes ago

      Download the Twitch App, and go to "Mods" then select a modpack from the list of packs there.  Assuming you are attempting to "Create" your own modpack.  There are thousands of modpacks already created and it is very likely you will find one with the mods you want.  If  Not, look for a Vanilla+ pack, and then unlock the profile, and add whatever mods you want.  The App will make sure they are of the right version and what not.  Thus you essentially create your own pack that way in a sense.
