How to make forge run with the "create profile" function in minecraft launcher?

[burn3h]

Its a simple question. The soloution may not be as simple. I have multiple personal modpacks, and was wondering if it was in any way possible to make "forge" appear as a minecraft version if you create a new profile from the profile manager. I have tried using a folder which has minecraft forge installed, but when i run it no mods will load. This is of course because i can't run minecraft forge as a version of minecraft through this fairly new function (i think its new at least). Anyone found a way to do this? Thanks.

If you use the Forge installer, it will show up as a 'version' Just select it.

Duh. I know how to use Forge. That wasnt what i asked

You can create multiple profiles in the manager. But if you allready install forge in for an example a roaming folder called "Minecraft (123)", you are unable to run it as forge, even though you have forge installed inside that folder.

You need to select the forge version in your custom profile.
