Forge Crashes Minecraft

[Slvrngrn]

I have been hesitant to come here because I hate getting flamed when I need help. Hopefully y'all won;t do that.

 

OK, here is the deal. I have been trying for three days to install MCForge. I have tried many versions (including minecraftforge-client-3.1.3.105, minecraftforge-client-1.2.5, minecraftforge-client-1.4.0.57, and minecraftforge-client-3.0.1.75). Currently, I am working with 3.1.3.105.

 

I have tried many, many times starting with a clean copy of Minecraft (from scratch, virgin jar files). It always crashes once Forge is installed.

 

I have tried installing with and without ModLoaderMP, and am no longer trying to install that mod since it appears that MCForge no longer needs it.

 

I am installing ModLoader prior to installing MCForge. I am using ModLoader version 1.2.5 and Minecraft version 1.2.5. I can start Minecraft and begin playing after installing ModLoader, I do not crash until I have installed MCForge. I am only attempting to install ModLoader and Forge at this point... no other mods are loaded.

 

My compression tool is jZip. It works fine installing ModLoader and removing the META-INF folder so I have ruled this out as a possible bad actor.

 

I am attaching a few logs for you guys to look over (as I am not sure which ones you'll want/need).

Please help me! 

[LexManos]

Dont use jzip it fucks things up.

[Slvrngrn]

I'll be darned! It works!

 

Now it's time to send the coder some money to support his work.  Oh wait...

you are a little twat

 

Lex, you were the one I was talking about when I put that blurb up there. So now I will just send twice as much to the coder who wrote the mod I needed Forge for.  Not sure why you're such an a-hole... but it just cost you. Thanks for helping me!

[Slvrngrn]

I see you changed your post Lex, but the damage is done...

 

Here is the post I just made on the forum for the mod I needed Forge for...

I got it!! You're never going to believe this (or maybe you will), but it was my compression software! I was using jZip. Apparently, it doesn't work properly. So I loaded WinRAR and it works.

 

It was actually Lex Manos who filled me in. In an earlier post here, I had expressed some misgivings with going to the Minecraft Forge forum for help because he is such a jerk to folks needing help. Well, in helping me he also called me a twat. So, as soon as I get paid I will be sending you not only a donation for Decoratives, but I will be send you Lex's donation for Forge as well.

 

Thanks for a great product and keeping it classy as you tried to help me. Now if you'll excuse me ... I have some Pure Glass in the oven

 

[LexManos]

You're the one who called out to be insulted, so I did, and then rethought.

But now i'm not sure you deserved not to be insulted.

Have fun with whatever you want and stop being a insufferable twat.

 

Anyways, feel free to spread the donation to whomever you wish, I don't really care. Its not like my entire life depends on donations, they are just a little happy bonus. But I wouldn't want a donation from a cock head like you.

G'day sir.

[Slvrngrn]

Does lying make you feel better? Loving your FREE mod.

[LexManos]

When was I lying?

If I didn't believe in free open source software, do you think I would be working on Forge.

Or the plethora of other FOSS i've worked on over my years?

I'm glad you like forge, and you're enjoying playing mods that use it. That's what we want, people to have fun.

 

I am a blunt person, If people get a bit testy about the things I say. It is not my fault. I'm not going to change who I am just to try and pandor for donations. Everything I do is for free. If you like it, then just say thanks, that's the same value to me as a monetary donation.

[Slvrngrn]

See, why can't you talk to me (and others) like that all the time? I waited before coming here for help because of your tendency to be... well an asshole, to people on this and other forums. I may still send a little something your way, but your initial blast, the fact that you modified my first post, and your history on the forums really has me rubbed the wrong way. I'm glad you believe in open source software, now you should work on believing in respect for others.

 

Great job on your Shelf mod. Sincerely.

[LexManos]

What shelf mod? or you mean support mod. Anyways.

I don't talk to people who directly ask for insults without insulting them because, in asking to be insulted, they show themselves worthy to be insulted.

Catch my drift?

If you hadn't asked for it, My response would of just been "Don't use jZip it fucks things up"

But no, you asked for it.

 

As for others that I 'insult' I will state this, I am a dick. I state things bluntly. Sometimes sarcastically. Rarely do I ever actually directly insult someone.

Grow a pair and stop being so sensitive, it's the god damned internet.
