Is Forge both a virus and not a virus?

Screenshots may help clear things up.

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.

Spoiler

Logs (Most issues require logs to diagnose):

Spoiler

Please post logs using one of the following sites (Thank you Lumber Wizard for the list):

https://gist.github.com/: 100MB Requires member (Free)

https://pastebin.com/: 512KB as guest, 10MB as Pro ($$$)

https://hastebin.com/: 400KB

Do NOT use sites like Mediafire, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or a site that has a countdown before offering downloads.

 

What to provide:

...for Crashes and Runtime issues:

Minecraft 1.14.4 and newer:

Post debug.log

Older versions:

Please update...

 

...for Installer Issues:

Post your installer log, found in the same place you ran the installer

This log will be called either installer.log or named the same as the installer but with .log on the end

Note for Windows users:

Windows hides file extensions by default so the installer may appear without the .jar extension then when the .log is added the log will appear with the .jar extension

 

Where to get it:

Mojang Launcher: When using the Mojang launcher debug.log is found in .minecraft\logs.

 

Curse/Overwolf: If you are using the Curse Launcher, their configurations break Forge's log settings, fortunately there is an easier workaround than I originally thought, this works even with Curse's installation of the Minecraft launcher as long as it is not launched THROUGH Twitch:

Spoiler
  1. Make sure you have the correct version of Forge installed (some packs are heavily dependent on one specific build of Forge)
  2. Make a launcher profile targeting this version of Forge.
  3. Set the launcher profile's GameDir property to the pack's instance folder (not the instances folder, the folder that has the pack's name on it).
  4. Now launch the pack through that profile and follow the "Mojang Launcher" instructions above.

Video:

Spoiler

 

 

 

or alternately, 

 

Fallback ("No logs are generated"):

If you don't see logs generated in the usual place, provide the launcher_log.txt from .minecraft

 

Server Not Starting:

Spoiler

If your server does not start or a command window appears and immediately goes away, run the jar manually and provide the output.

 

Reporting Illegal/Inappropriate Adfocus Ads:

Spoiler

Get a screenshot of the URL bar or copy/paste the whole URL into a thread on the General Discussion board with a description of the Ad.

Lex will need the Ad ID contained in that URL to report it to Adfocus' support team.

 

Posting your mod as a GitHub Repo:

Spoiler

When you have an issue with your mod the most helpful thing you can do when asking for help is to provide your code to those helping you. The most convenient way to do this is via GitHub or another source control hub.

When setting up a GitHub Repo it might seem easy to just upload everything, however this method has the potential for mistakes that could lead to trouble later on, it is recommended to use a Git client or to get comfortable with the Git command line. The following instructions will use the Git Command Line and as such they assume you already have it installed and that you have created a repository.

 

  1. Open a command prompt (CMD, Powershell, Terminal, etc).
  2. Navigate to the folder you extracted Forge’s MDK to (the one that had all the licenses in).
  3. Run the following commands:
    1. git init
    2. git remote add origin [Your Repository's URL]
      • In the case of GitHub it should look like: https://GitHub.com/[Your Username]/[Repo Name].git
    3. git fetch
    4. git checkout --track origin/master
    5. git stage *
    6. git commit -m "[Your commit message]"
    7. git push
  4. Navigate to GitHub and you should now see most of the files.
    • note that it is intentional that some are not synced with GitHub and this is done with the (hidden) .gitignore file that Forge’s MDK has provided (hence the strictness on which folder git init is run from)
  5. Now you can share your GitHub link with those who you are asking for help.

[Workaround line, please ignore]

      Skin not showing up in modpacks when I use Forge

      By AntonZLK · Posted

      Thank you! I have been looking for a solution to the problem for 3 months now, without finding an answer. The problem with displaying the skin was precisely on version 1.18.2, even in a single player game and only with Forge. Moreover, everything worked correctly on another computer. I'm already tired of looking for the problem. I deleted everything I could from the programs on my PC, nothing helped. I saw your post and unchecked IPv6 in the properties of my network connection and the problem disappeared! Thank you, you saved my nerve cells! Sorry for my English.

      $2000 for modding help

      By SemWerf · Posted

      I once had a friend who shared a fascinating story about his spending habits. He was an avid World of Warcraft player, and his obsession with the game reached a new level when he decided to invest a substantial amount of money in amirdrassil the dream's hope boost services for his characters. Despite my initial shock at the expense, he explained that it was his way of enhancing his gaming experience. This memory serves as a reminder that people are willing to go to great lengths to pursue their passions, even if it means spending a significant sum.

      After adding some performance mods to my instance, the game refuses to launch.

      By AsterMelody · Posted

      I've been playing the ATFC modpack recently, however I've been having some performance issues. I tried to fix this by adding various performance mods - but it's only created more issues. This is my log file: https://pastebin.com/9a6r2ah4 I use PrismMC, an external launcher - separate from the Official Minecraft Launcher. I run ZorinOS 16.3 (A Linux Distro). I have 16Gb of RAM, I have an Intel Core i5-4570 CPU, and I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU. This is the beginning of the error: [main/ERROR] [ne.mi.fm.lo.mo.ModDiscoverer/SCAN]: Failed to build unique mod list after mod discovery. net.minecraftforge.fml.loading.EarlyLoadingException: Duplicate mods found Help would be greatly appreciated! Sorry if my formatting is wrong - I'm very new here.

      Minecraft 1.19.2 | Forge 43.3.0 | Couldn't place player in world

      By srimp · Posted

      I believe I posted this topic in the wrong forum so I shall post it again. Hello, I am getting an error when trying to load into a personal modpack of mine. It's been giving this error ever since I started working on adding mods again, and I don't know what's causing it. I don't have a crash report since it is merely me getting kicked from my singleplayer world but I do have the error from the logs. I can provide the full log and debug.log on mclogs or pastebin if required.
