[Probably solved] Running client in eclipse does not work.

[21:26:22] [main/ERROR]: Technical information: The class net.minecraft.client.ClientBrandRetriever should have been associated with the minecraft jar file, and should have returned us a valid, intact minecraft jar location. This did not work. Either you have modified the minecraft jar file (if so run the forge installer again), or you are using a base editing jar that is changing this class (and likely others too). If you REALLY want to run minecraft in this configuration, add the flag -Dfml.ignoreInvalidMinecraftCertificates=true to the 'JVM settings' in your launcher profile.

 

 

If I add the dfml flag the JVM arguments (-Dfml.ignoreInvalidMinecraftCertificates=true) I get:
