You will converse with your terminal like this:

<you> sudo ./install.sh

<terminal>Enter Root Password:

<you> *enters root password

<terminal> PRINTS LOTS OF STUFF

<you>

what is a root password?

it does not tell me to end my password it just says Permission denied

it does not tell me to end my password it just says Permission denied

type

cd /Users/Username/locationofMCP/mcp72/forge

bash install.sh

Forge requires both a fresh .minecraft instance AND the server.jar, download the server.jar from the minecraft website and put it in the jars folder.
