Thank Ye greatly!

Thank you for the suggestion, but as I stated, there is a certain mod that I want to use that has not updated, which I will now state, are due to personal reasons on the part of the mod developer that made it. Frankly, I don't get to chose when they update or if someone else will take over the project, and I don't have permission to try and decompile the mods and update them myself, nor do I know how yet. So, I choose to hang back with 1.6.2 for the time being, and start learning how to write mods from there. ....Anyone else care to contribute? Sorry if that comes across as blunt, but I stated my reasons, and I am making do with what I can to achieve my goals. I am still checking through my mod list to see if my 1.6.2 mods can run on 1.6.4 as also suggested. And waiting to see if Ernio can help like he offered, as I understand we all have lives and can't just cater to a random persons request.

Well, whenever you can, would be nice. Or if someone can help with the error.

I did not know that. I'll give that a try sometime. That would be very helpful, thank you! ...I just need to know if there is a setting somewhere I need to change to accept you, or are you just saying I need to say it's okay?

I am new to trying to develop my own mods, and thus I am trying to install the Source files, but having trouble. I am utilizing the final available build for Minecraft 1.6.2, as stated in the title, due to the mod combination that I want to supplement with my own being limited to 1.6.2 at the time. I have done some looking around before posting this, and saw that some had a similar error, however, the solution that was provided, either is not one that I can use, due to how old that version of Forge Source is, or I am not experienced enough yet to implement it, if it is still viable. http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php?topic=1730.0 In case that helps. As for my problem, I initially got this upon running "install.cmd" under "C:\Program Files\forge" ================ Forge ModLoader Setup Start =================== Checking MCP zip (may take time to download) [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\\Program Files\\forge\\fml\\mcp8.04.zip' Download of C:\Program Files\forge\fml\mcp8.04.zip failed, download it manually from 'http://mcp.ocean-labs.de/files/archive/mcp804.zip' to 'C:\Program Files\fo rge\fml\mcp8.04.zip' Press any key to continue . . . I was able to manually download the file via Firefox as instructed, and tried running "install.cmd" again. This time, I encountered the error that I have now (and the reason for this topic): C:\Program Files\forge\fml>echo off ================ Forge ModLoader Setup Start =================== Checking MCP zip (may take time to download) Traceback (most recent call last): File "install.py", line 56, in <module> decompile=options.decompile, gen_conf=False) File "install.py", line 10, in fml_main download_mcp(fml_dir, mcp_dir) File "C:\Program Files\forge\fml\fml.py", line 525, in download_mcp _mkdir(mcp_dir) File "C:\Program Files\forge\fml\fml.py", line 457, in _mkdir os.mkdir(newdir) WindowsError: [Error 5] Access is denied: 'C:\\Program Files\\forge\\fml\\mcp' Press any key to continue . . . Now, the prior topic I came across and linked for reference suggested to it's OP that they delete a directory path, so that the install process can recognize that it does not yet exist, and install the correct files, but again, that is for a VERY old version of Forge Source, and also, I am not sure what needs to be removed if anything, as I do not want to break what I already have downloaded and be back to square one. I have been following an "outdated" version of the the installation guide, to match my outdated Forge: http://www.minecraftforge.net/w/index.php?title=Installation/Source&direction=prev&oldid=2136 However, although it mentions what to do with a certain similar error, it is different enough from what I have to make me cautious about trying to "improvise". Any help for someone deliberately trying to make a mod for an outdated version of Minecraft would be nice.
