After downloading forge, I have been getting the Black Screen Of Death. Before anyone asks, yes, I have deleted META INF, I have deleted .Minecraft, and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game. I've been trying to get this to work for 2 days now. Any ideas?

I have watched many tutorials that say that META-INF blocks some mods from being able to be played.

I think you've been watching videos from about 6 or 7 years ago -_- 

 

Modding's come a looong way, Delete your .minecraft folder, uninstall minecraft launcher from your program file. then you should be able to start from scratch.

 

Install minecraft then go to files.minecraftforge.net and get the version you want to play on.... download the INSTALLER

 

run the installer and follow the instructions it show's you. it's that simple now

you might need to download and play on minecraft 1.12 before you can install forge 1.12

What's the difference between a Jar and an EXE?

A JAR file is an archive (collection) of classes that java can run... It only runs in JAVA

 

An EXE file is a windows executable, It runs in windows without the need of java

You screwed up the installation. The minecraft Forge installer needs an existing version of minecraft 1.12 before it can install. If you have deleted the .minecraft folder there won't be any versions of 1.12.

 

try what I suggested, delete .minecraft and uninstall the Minecraft launcher. then start from scratch

 

If you want to use a video get one that's less than 2 years old

I couldn't find any recent videos xD

That's because installing forge is as follows:

1) Download installer

2) Run installer

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

there are still videos out there... although most tutorials are text based now
