when running the installer it doesnt give me the jar file i need

[_Zer0kUn_]

exactly as the title says, after downloading the recommended forge version and trying to install it as a server it doesnt give me any jar file except for a folder called libraries and some other various files.

am i doing something wrong or am i downloading the wrong thing?

thanks

1.18+ and 1.19+ is a bit different install way. file ".bat" is other. If u use from older version command thats can be issue.

so all updates from 1.18 forward are different, i get that but how do i get the jar file that is needed to run a server? your response is a little vague, sorry

You don't. The jar file to run a server doesn't exist anymore.

Use the bat file if on windows, or the sh file if not. If you're using a server hosting company thats asking for a jar file. Tell them to update to modern java.

I finded on youtube (idk that i can send here YT link). Jar file still exist but is in library - path for it: \libraries\net\minecraftforge\forge\"your forge version" - checked on my server.

 

You have ".bat" where u start and in "user_jvm_args.txt" here u put how much tam u wanna give server (before 1.8.2 it was the same file)

 

Install server > in ur folder u should have 4 file (library .bat .sh and user_jvm_args.txt[ herre but how much ram u want let use server]) > click run.bat > accept EULA > run again .bat > world should create
