thanks, I'll try that and see if it works. EDIT: Yay, that fixed it! thanks for your help Not sure what was going on, but at it works now

from the fml client log. (fml-client-latest.log)

It is the full log. that's all there was. after that java stops. This was ctrl+a ctrl+c ctrl+v straight from the log file.

I have no other mods installed. I installed the latest version into the MC launcher using the latest installer from the official website, as instructed, so completely clean install. There is no crash report or stacktrace because rather than crashing minecraft, the "java platform se binary has stopped working" popup comes up and minecraft closes. log link: http://pastebin.com/n9FLQjeb (1 month expiration date, be warned) any help at all would be helpful. being completely unable to use newer forge versions is rather inconvenient. (older 1.8 versions work just fine, for whatever reason.) EDIT: to be concise- there is no crash, java just stops working at the end of the log. Sorry if the log isn't much help, it's all I've got to go on. EDIT2: I noticed the console's text was different from that in the log- http://pastebin.com/eZTVfWF3 and then there's this line: (30 in the main log, 12 in the console log.)
