Posted February 20, 201411 yr Hi everyone! I'm new to the forums - I registered to find out how can I be able to get Minecraft version 1.72 in order to try out the latest version of Minecraft Forge. I know I have to click on "Edit Profile" in the Minecraft Launcher, then tick the boxes in order to use alpha & beta previous versions, but the only version that shows in the drop-down menu afterwards is 1.74. If anyone knows how to walk around this I'd be glad! PS: should I create a new profile and change the game directory as the warning messages suggest? Many thanks!!!
February 20, 201411 yr Please open your launcher, press "new profile" and choose the version you'd like to use under "versions"
February 20, 201411 yr Author Thanks michael2mandy!!! However, I have tried that sadly with no results - the only version that shows in the drop-down menu is 1.74. When I installed minecraft on this computer the current minecraft version already was 1.74.
February 20, 201411 yr Author How do I do to run Minecraft 1.72? That's exactly what I'm trying to find out.
February 20, 201411 yr Where did you download the launcher you're using? Please post full logs and screenshots. I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
