Game crashed whilist starting up.

[xWallen]

I am running a server for Sponge with various Forge mods inserted, the server starts up just fine.

Upon launching the launcher presents me with this error after going through all seven steps for loading forge. I am clueless, as are the mod developers.

"The game crashed whilst initializing game
Error: java.lang.NullPointerException: Initializing game"

The log is as follows:

where in the log does it state that?

[xWallen]

odd thing is, they cited CTM as the root cause of my issue. but even installing that did nothing to help or fix my problems.
