Minecraft Forge Installation

[bl4uer_Engel]

Hi,

 

Can somebody say me how to install Minecraft Forge Universal 9.10.0.804 on 1.6.2 with the new launcher???

 

I don't understand how it works.

 

And for what you need the Src version of Minecraft Forge?

Open the Launcher, select Client and select your minecraft directory. Did you already installed the new launcher? If yes, select the directory where you installed it.

 

The Src-folder is for creating mods.

Thank You!

 

But I don't mean the installer, I know how it works. I mean the Minecraft Forge Universal.

 

How do I Install it after the Update?

 

I have already the new launcher.

The installer installs the universal for you typically now the universal download is for server admins who want to quickly swap versions.

[bl4uer_Engel]

So the universal version is no more for the client?

 

Or how to install it manuelly on Client? Copying the files from Minrcraft Forge Universal.jar to 1.6.2.jar does not work! I don't understand?

You need to get forge libraries and the forge json.

Thats why we have an installer.

[bl4uer_Engel]

So I have to extract the versions.json into ...\.minecraft\versions\Version Name\versions.json, rename it to "Version Name.json", open it and change id to "Version Name"?

 

Then I can copy the files from Minecraft Forge Universal jar to "Version Name.json"?

 

If I have the Forge json the Forge libraries should be downloaded automatically?

[luacs1998]

No, no! Use the installer!!!

[bl4uer_Engel]

Yeah, but what is the universal version there?

[luacs1998]

Its for server admins who want to quickly swap out versions.

[bl4uer_Engel]

So you can't install the universal version on client?

[luacs1998]

You could, but its undocumented and unsupported.

[LexManos]

It's documented in the installer code, just follow what it does manually.
