Hi,

When I double click forge (yes, new profile ( now "configuration") in mc used opened and quit), it gives me the error message "The Java JAR file [forge file name] could not be launched. Check the Console for error messages"

The new Console is not very self-explanatory, but I didn't find anything related to Forge in it.

Maybe it's Java my version, but since I program and always keep Eclipse (programming app) runnable, I doubt it.

I checked Java and it is up to date with Release 8 version 131 or whatever.

Please help.

Computer specs:

iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2013)

2.7 GHz Intel Core i5

8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB

 

Thank you!

Warm regards, Fritz (The Hydræfall)

The universal jar is for server owners. Are you trying to run a server?

No. I'm just trying to learn how to use mods I find online to make life in MC more fun (single player).

What should I download for single-player forge?

PS: Thank you for that last advice, I would never have known <3

Use the installer. It will create a new Profile and Version entry in your launcher.

Okay, I don't know which file to download. Can u give me the default file name, as well maybe a screen shot of what button to hit? I'm looking for version 12.1.

Download the Installer file for the Forge version you want.

Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future.
