anonymous_user Posted September 7, 2021 Posted September 7, 2021 Hey! So I have been watching other forge tutorials for awhile now, and they have always worked. But for some reason now with my new computer Forge isn't. Do you think you could help? Then when I open forge, a window that's all black shows up for half a second. (If there is something I need to do in here, I am able to keep it open sometimes). Please let me know what you think about this, and I would appreciate it if you could help me out. Thanks! From a fan, Anonymous Quote
uSkizzik Posted September 8, 2021 Posted September 8, 2021 The installer should generate a log file in the same folder. Can you send it via pastebin or something? Quote
QWERTY 52 38 Posted September 8, 2021 Posted September 8, 2021 Could you show us the log files? It's in the folder ".minecraft\logs". Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 8, 2021 Author Posted September 8, 2021 so in my log folder, there is at least another thousand files, so I can't show them all, but I'll show the most I can. Idk why there is a blc folder in their, as I don't use blc, and I'm a lunar guy Also Idk why there is a random doc in there, too. Tell me if I need to show yall more. log files 1Unavailable log files 2Unavailable Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 8, 2021 Author Posted September 8, 2021 I don't see a file named debug.log... And I don't use blc, so should I delete that folder that there? Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 8, 2021 Author Posted September 8, 2021 Before I knew about Forge, I have been using Lunar Client Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 8, 2021 Author Posted September 8, 2021 I would be using Forge, but like I said, it doesn't open up the launcher. Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 9, 2021 Author Posted September 9, 2021 Well then I use the MC launcher? Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 9, 2021 Author Posted September 9, 2021 But why isn't forge opening?? Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 9, 2021 Author Posted September 9, 2021 Where can I find that? Sorry I'm not that good at this. Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 9, 2021 Author Posted September 9, 2021 Okay, I havee that enabled. Now what? Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 11, 2021 Author Posted September 11, 2021 The "fatal" was just when I closed mc after launch. Quote
anonymous_user Posted September 11, 2021 Author Posted September 11, 2021 I can't run forge, because the only way it will show up in my installations is to run Forge itself, which won't open. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

DaemonUmbra Posted September 11, 2021 Posted September 11, 2021 Does the installer run completely and say it was successful? Is there no Forge version in the Minecraft Version dropdown afterwards? If you answered yes to both of the above please list your antivirus programs Quote This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy. As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk: The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge. If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan. For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety. Reveal hidden contents Logs (Most issues require logs to diagnose): Reveal hidden contents Please post logs using one of the following sites (Thank you Lumber Wizard for the list): https://gist.github.com/: 100MB Requires member (Free) https://pastebin.com/: 512KB as guest, 10MB as Pro ($$$) https://hastebin.com/: 400KB Do NOT use sites like Mediafire, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or a site that has a countdown before offering downloads. What to provide: ...for Crashes and Runtime issues: Minecraft 1.14.4 and newer: Post debug.log Older versions: Please update... ...for Installer Issues: Post your installer log, found in the same place you ran the installer This log will be called either installer.log or named the same as the installer but with .log on the end Note for Windows users: Windows hides file extensions by default so the installer may appear without the .jar extension then when the .log is added the log will appear with the .jar extension Where to get it: Mojang Launcher: When using the Mojang launcher debug.log is found in .minecraft\logs. Curse/Overwolf: If you are using the Curse Launcher, their configurations break Forge's log settings, fortunately there is an easier workaround than I originally thought, this works even with Curse's installation of the Minecraft launcher as long as it is not launched THROUGH Twitch: Reveal hidden contents Make sure you have the correct version of Forge installed (some packs are heavily dependent on one specific build of Forge) Make a launcher profile targeting this version of Forge. Set the launcher profile's GameDir property to the pack's instance folder (not the instances folder, the folder that has the pack's name on it). Now launch the pack through that profile and follow the "Mojang Launcher" instructions above. Video: Reveal hidden contents or alternately, Fallback ("No logs are generated"): If you don't see logs generated in the usual place, provide the launcher_log.txt from .minecraft Server Not Starting: Reveal hidden contents If your server does not start or a command window appears and immediately goes away, run the jar manually and provide the output. Reporting Illegal/Inappropriate Adfocus Ads: Reveal hidden contents Get a screenshot of the URL bar or copy/paste the whole URL into a thread on the General Discussion board with a description of the Ad. Lex will need the Ad ID contained in that URL to report it to Adfocus' support team. Posting your mod as a GitHub Repo: Reveal hidden contents When you have an issue with your mod the most helpful thing you can do when asking for help is to provide your code to those helping you. The most convenient way to do this is via GitHub or another source control hub. When setting up a GitHub Repo it might seem easy to just upload everything, however this method has the potential for mistakes that could lead to trouble later on, it is recommended to use a Git client or to get comfortable with the Git command line. The following instructions will use the Git Command Line and as such they assume you already have it installed and that you have created a repository. Open a command prompt (CMD, Powershell, Terminal, etc). Navigate to the folder you extracted Forge’s MDK to (the one that had all the licenses in). Run the following commands: git init git remote add origin [Your Repository's URL] In the case of GitHub it should look like: https://GitHub.com/[Your Username]/[Repo Name].git git fetch git checkout --track origin/master git stage * git commit -m "[Your commit message]" git push Navigate to GitHub and you should now see most of the files. note that it is intentional that some are not synced with GitHub and this is done with the (hidden) .gitignore file that Forge’s MDK has provided (hence the strictness on which folder git init is run from) Now you can share your GitHub link with those who you are asking for help. [Workaround line, please ignore]
