Hello everyone! This is my first post here, so I salute you all! I hope this is in the right place and rightly posted, if not, my apologies!
Here are the details:
i - Clean install of MC 1.5.2.
ii - Downloaded: minecraftforge-universal-1.5.2-7.8.1.737.zip
iii - Opened minecraft.jar (WinRar)
iv - Opened minecraftforge-universal-1.5.2-7.8.1.737.zip (WinRar)
v - Dragged all files from minecraftforge-universal-1.5.2-7.8.1.737.rar into minecraft.jar
vi - Opened META-INF inside of minecraft.jar and deleted all files starting with "MOJANG" as per instruction.
vii - Closed all archive files and opened Minecraft ---|> launcher opens
viii - Clicked on "launch"
ix - Text-box appears: "FML is setting up your minecraft environment". The moment the window changes to "Library file scala-library.jar was downloaded and verified successfully" (at 0% on the progress bar for this "task") , the following text-box appears:
"There was a fatal error setting up minecraft and FML
Minecraft cannot launch in its current configuration
Please consult the file C:\Users\***\Roaming\.minecraft\ForgeModLoader-client-0.log for further information"
Minecraft crashes and cannot be launched anymore, therefore clean install (back to step i). Repeat steps iii, iv, v and the DELETED the folder META-INF. Continue with steps and same result is obtained. Read some posts and tried this:
-Repeated steps i throughout vi
-Downloaded fml_libs.zip which includes the files which the launcher attempts to download.
-Disconnected from internet, just in case.
- Placed these files in the folder "lib" (C:\Users\***\Roaming\.minecraft\lib)
-Launched MC
Same error.
Repeated this last one but WITH internet-connection - same result.
So now I spent a few hours (literally) googling around to find a solution. If it really is something something silly I DO apoligize!
Anyone have an idea?
Thank you for your time folks, hope to be able to fix this soon!!!
