I can download the installer and everything from my phone, but I don't have home internet so I can't actually use the installer on my laptop (nd tethering to my phone connection is quite ridiculously not an option for unlimited data plans, either)...

And I'd like not to have to drive half an hour to the nearest public Wi-Fi just to connect my laptop for ten seconds...

 

Is there any way to get a list of what the installer needs to download so I can download them individually from my phone and somehow manually install them on my laptop as a new profile myself?

Because, like I already said, I'd rather not drive half an hour one way to the nearest public Wi-Fi just to spend ten seconds downloading something.

I live in a tiny farm town, surrounded by woods; there's nothing with Wi-Fi nearby.

Okay great, but how do I get from a folder of the libraries to a selectable Forge version in the profile editor?

 

I'm guessing the libraries folder merges with the one in the .minecraft/ folder but how do I get the version .jar file to actually use it?

Is running the Forge installer afterward enough? I don't want to mess something up by assuming the wrong thing.

Unzip that to your mc folder.

And run the installer again.

The installer only downloads things that it needs to download, if the files already exist it'll skip them and work the rest of the process fine.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

So the problem i am having is when i followed the advice i managed to cut down the folders that need to download to one. Ive been searching everywhere for the 'org. Apache. Maven:maven-artifact:3.5.3' folder but i cant find it. Con someone get me the download link of it so i can put that into my mc libraries folder. I also can only download from my phone.

I have tried this that you put up here but I get the following poster:

 

"Downloading minecraft server failed, invalid e-tag checksum Try again or manually place server jar to skip download"

 

Copy the libraries to the .minecraft folder, it should be noted that what I want is to update forge because I have an earlier version and that poster is the one that I get and I don't know what it means with place server jar, where is that file that I need to place manually ? Is it possible to update forge offline in these circumstances?

Please don't Necro old threads, if you have an issue make your own.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.
