1.7.10 Forge Won't Recognize Minecraft Server and Fetch Needed Libraries

[TheCrappyGamer]

When I launch the installer (forge-1.7.10-10.13.4.1614-1.7.10-installer) and put in the path, despite the proper version server being there (I downloaded it via official MC Launcher for the appropriate version) it complains about not having a valid check e-sum and for me to put in the server jar so it can skip that. I even tried putting in the universal forge jar for the same version. It won't launch at all. Proper Java version (1.8.0_282), 64-bit.

 

If I launch just the server jar from Mojang it works fine, populates the files it needs (server.properties and eula.txt), and just chills out. Please help? It's been a few years since I tried setting up a server like this.
