Work with 1.6.x and 1.7.x Mods at the same time

[American2050]

Hello, I have a very simple question, for sure it is explained in forum already, but I'm not sure where or what to search for.

 

The problem is this. I know to play modded minecraft, I install for example Forge for 1.6.4 and I place the Mods I want to use/test in the "mods" folders.

 

But what happens if I also want a profile for 1.7.x Is there a way to have all the mods somewhere and depending the Profile I select Forge takes them?

 

What I'm doing right now, when I want to test 1.7 I rename the Mods folder to mods164 and in the mods I place the 1.7 mods and, vice-versa when trying the 1.6.4 (You get the idea)

 

Well, I hope there is a best way to do this

 

Thanks.
