version.json for forge

[marcin212]

Hi,

Where can I find http://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/1.6.4/1.6.4.json

but for Forge?

 

I know that's in the forge-1.6.4-9.11.1.965-installer.jar, but I would like to url.

its not distributed as a singular file. Its included in the universal and installer.

Mainly because we do not have, nore can afford the servers that would be required to do all of the raw installations automatically.

Hence why our installer supports mirriors, heavily compresses, caches, etc...

So, depending on your intentions for its use there are options. Perhaps explaining more of your intent can allow us to direct you further.

I'm writing a launcher for my "stupid" friends.  Launcher type of click Start and Play

installation forge and copying files to .minecraft is too difficult for my friends.

When I update my modpack, they have to download it again. My launcher works like applications to synchronize folders.

Then sync the entire folder, including the fully installed forge... Why specialcase Forge?
