Forge In Another Folder

[DavyDawg123]

Hey everyone, I need some help.  I used the new installer to make a folder for a forge profile, but in a folder different than '.minecraft'.  The folder is there, and fine.  Everything works until I try to make a profile to PLAY Forge, and it's not an option in the Versions drop-down bar.  Not sure what's going on, so I hope someone does    Thanks in advance for any help!

It's a profile, not a version.

You should get a new profile "Forge".

I did.  I can't choose to play on Forge in the New Profile menu.

[luacs1998]

Not that.

Under Profile there's a dropdown.

I've done everything right.  The Forge folder is there in the versions folder in the correct folder, and everything is dandy UNTIL I try to select it as the version I want to play.

If you install forge to a differnt directory. You need to tell the launcher to use that folder. If you don't know how to do that then just use the default settings.

Again, I've done that.  As far as I can tell, it should work.

SOMETHING that actually tells us shit. There is always a way to get ARLEAST the console log. Get it and post it. its you launching the game wrong we can't really fix something on our end in shit we don't know anything about or have anything to do with.

In the "versions" folder in what would be .minecraft, the installer created the folder for Forge, and it was created correctly.  When I create a new Profile in the launcher, I should be able to choose that Forge folder as a version to play on, like I would 1.6.2, 1.5.2, etc.  However, it doesn't even show up.  That's the best I can do, sorry if it isn't much help.
