Forge 1.12 JAR File Will Not Open

[hydraefall]

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.
