Hello,
This is my very first post in the forums and I need some help. I'm trying to get 2 mods to properly work for my son's Minecraft install and have followed the online and Youtube instructions of how to do it but sure enough, they're just not working. I've installed the latest version of Forge (1.8-11.14.3.1487) and have Minecraft v 1.8.7. I believe that's the latest version.
I personally don't play Minecraft and honestly don't know anything about it but my son is only 9 years old and doesn't know anything about modding so here I am endeavoring to get this issue resolved.
The 2 mods that he wanted to get working are the Morph mod (we have Morph-Beta-0.9.1), and the Adventure Backpack Mod (we have adventurebackpack-1.7.10-0.8b). For the Morph mod, I also installed (according to the instructions I got from the Internet) the iChun Utility (we have the iChunUtil-5.4.0). I put these .jar mods in the Mods folder within the Minecraft folder. I then launch Minecraft and select the "Forge" profile - Edit Profile. In the Profile Editor window, I make sure I select in the "Use Version" field: "release 1.8-Forge11.14.3.1487". I then save the profile and click "Play". Once the game intro screen shows up, I click on the "Mods" button and only 4 mods are displayed:
- Minecraft Coder Pack
- Forge Mod Loader
- Minecraft Forge
- iChunUtil
So, what gives? Why are the other 2 mods (adventurebackpack-1.7.10-0.8b and Morph-Beta-0.9.1) not showing up in the list? Could it be perhaps because these mods were made for an earlier version of Minecraft and they're not compatible with our version?
In any case, any help in getting this problem fixed would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.
