Hello. I'm having issues getting Forge to work. I've taken a completely fresh installation of Minecraft, downloaded the latest recommended build for clients (minecraftforge-client-3.3.8.152), and followed the instructions for proper installation (take the contents of the forge zip and drop them into the minecraft jar). However, I cannot get pasted the loading screen, as the client freezes at a Done Loading screen. Apparently this was an issue in the past with 1.2.5, but no one seems to have had a satisfactory solution at the time other than to roll back to a previous version.
What's most infuriating is that Forge had previously worked for me until this afternoon, when the Done Loading freeze started occurring.
I am not using any other mods at this time, and the entire setup is just a vanilla installation of Minecraft with Forge newly installed.
